Most ancient civilisations document the story of a great flood covering the earth and destroying everything. Walk into a Christian bookstore, go to the children’s section and you will find scores of books on Noah’s ark.
It baffles me as to why this story has been degraded into a cute children’s story of animals walking two by two into the ark. Don’t get me wrong, I have two kids of my own and love sharing this story as it’s a cute one.
But it’s one thing to tell stories to children and another thing to delve into the reality of Noah’s time as an adult and learn from what happened in the days of Noah.
Why? Well let’s just say that Jesus alluded to Noah’s time when asked about what conditions would be like at the end of days.
“For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.” Mat 24:37
Sure, on surface level, this text alludes to judgement and destruction and the fact that people are unaware of what was coming to them. But there is so much more to this story. Scratch beneath the surface and you will find a cosmic conspiracy so deep, it could only be birthed in the depraved soul of Satan himself.
To my readers, I ask one simple question; why did God destroy the earth with a flood?
If you give me a cliche answer such as “because of sin” I’ll scream. It baffles me as to why Christian’s don’t delve deeper into the times in which Noah walked.
While Christ was dead for three days, where did He go? Of all the places in heaven, on earth or under the earth His spirit could have gone, where did He go? What mission did His spirit accomplish while His flesh lay in the tomb?
Some may say I’m into conspiracy theories. I disagree. Conspiracy theories are often whacked out. I like facts. If the “official story” does not way up to the facts, then I doubt the official story. Unfortunately, this then puts me into the conspiracy theory camp.
Honestly? I don’t care. The Bible talks about the ultimate conspiracy against mankind being waged as we breathe…
“For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.” 2 Thess 2:7
If Paul wrote that almost 2000 years ago, and did so in past tense, who knows how long the mystery has been in play? And if was true then, then it is still true today - which makes this conspiracy at least 2000 years old.
And the scary thing is that its effects are being held back by someone or something for a later date. I’s about to be unleashed on mankind. If Jesus pointed to the days of Noah as a sign, I think it’s wise to understand what the hell was going on at Noah’s time to be so damn important.
So I ask you again. Why did God destroy the earth with a flood?
