Did the flood cover the whole earth? I got a hobby. I dig for arrowheads in the mountains around me. in caves and overhangs. Alone with arrowheads I find lots of seashells. I live close to two hundred miles from the gulf of Mexico. So I know that all the land around me was once covered by salt water.
Thanks for the explanation Stanjett. I was wondering that myself. My key takeaway is that God never demanded women to bear children. Many preachers teach that he commanded Noah to multiply. He left it to us to decide whether or not we want to have children.
Can anyone explain verse 13 where it says "In the six hundred and first year". Noah was born in 1056. The flood waters only covered the earth for 150 days. The math isn't adding up.

While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. I think the key words here are (While the Earth remaineth) Because we know in the final days that he will make and end to this earth and make a new earth where there will not be any sin or evil thing.
Nuclear war? Very close! Dear Jesus give us a new heart to love you truly, work on obedience, charity, fix my negative n help me to love my brethren before the door closes!
The Heart is Deceitful above all Things and Desperately Wicked---( Jeremiah 17:9) Man does not Start with a Good Heart.---The Imagination of Man's Heart is Evil from His Youth---( Genesis 8:21) No Man can come to me Except The Father which Sent Me Draw him.( John 6:44) He will Wash Us in His Blood( Revelation 1:5)Baptize us with The Holy Ghost( Mark 1:8)---He will be a New Creature--- 2Corinthians5:17
Adrian, according the 2 Peter 3:10, the earth will be destroyed (renovated) by fire next. The first time God baptized the earth to cleanse it. Again, 2 Peter indicates, next time God will address sin with fire, to purified it.
Servant of God; Interestingly, as you point out; (in the world of the beginning as well as the Israelites in the wilderness); it was because of defiant unbelief, apostasy, love of the world and despising the things of the Spirit and faith of Christ, that God saw no more reason to extend the time indefinitely. The salt had lost its savor and everything rotted; and those once saved after perished!
Because God look and saw that man(kind) was continually evil all the time He decided to kill every living thing. This he did but saved 8, Noah and his family. God threatened the same time in Exodus but repented thanks to Moses. Here in our day I see the same thing, only evil and bewilderment, confusion. Preachers preaching the doctrine of man instead of the Word of God, as God spoke it.
There shall be no more condemnation of Life, but cleansing of life made new, begotten of God, also the heaven and earth shall be made new, by the Glory of that continued cleansing.
I love this web site. I use this and my physical bible for a message every week. This is encouraging, after being cooped up for a year, Noah still waits for Gods word, then, after God opens the door , Noah worships first thing by building an altar. Praise the Lord.
"And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar." That which separated the sons of God from the sons of men from the beginning was being of the truth, and the faith in the Anointed coming into the world to make reconciliation to God for him by breaking the serpent's head. In the new world it was to be first!
Verse 20: Noah was grateful that Jehovah God helped him and his family to survive. One of the first things he did was build an altar to God and offer a sacrifice.
God was pleased with Noah's sacrifice. He knew what it meant. For all who believe God came in the flesh as Jesus the Messiah to shed His blood for the forgiveness of sins and continued life for eternity it is also God's will, according to the Holy Bible. God was pleased to do it for man, male and female He made that means. Which means God wanted it, according to the Holy Bible.
Noah humbled himself to shed the animals blood as an offering to the Lord, as without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sin according to the Holy Bible.This was done to ask for forgiveness for Noahs family,if need be continued life for them.Later in the New Testament God come as Jesus His blood shed was for eternal forgiveness and eternal life,according to the Holy Bible.
Genesis 8:20-21 Noah build the Altar unto the Lord,and took of every clean beast,every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings,on the altar. 21.And the Lord smelled a sweet Savor and the Lord said in his heart,I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake for the Imagination of man's heart is evil from youth neither will I again smite any more every thing, as I have done. God saw man has a heart and given him a beautiful savor he made just for God. God saw that man has a love for him and honored God, and gave it up to God. God has compassion of his people and of humanity. I thank you God! For loving us So much and given us a chances to get it right and lift us so we can live for him. Glory to God.
While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. I think the key words here are (While the Earth remaineth) Because we know in the final days that he will make and end to this earth and make a new earth where there will not be any sin or evil thing.
