1 2 Peter 3 3 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” Romans 14 11 For it is written: “As I live, says the LORD, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall confess to God.” 12 So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. Judgment Is Certain

2 2 Peter 3 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, 6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. Proof - FLOOD

3 Proof – PROMISE OF GOD 2 Peter 3 8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

4 Proof – RESURRECTION Acts 17 30 “Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 “because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”

5 Arguments Against Flood 1. Global Flood Never Happened Before - Uniformity of Nature 2. Who’s Noah? What Are His Credentials? 3.Human Reasoning or Philosophy: a) Not enough water b) Would God destroy His own creation? c) Innocent creatures: Babies & Animals? 4. False Teachers Claiming No Flood.

6 What Did Noah’s Faith Stand On? Hebrews 11 7 By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. God Had Spoken AND That Was Enough For Noah!!!

7 Judgment Is Coming! John 5 26 For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself, 27 and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man. 28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice 29 and come forth--those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.

8 Noah’s Faith Expressed In Obedience Genesis 6 13 And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. 14 “Make yourself an ark of gopherwood…. 15 “And this is how you shall make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits…. 17 “And behold, I Myself am bringing floodwaters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall die…. 22 “Thus Noah did; according to all that God commanded him, so he did.”

9 Obstacles 1. Magnitude of the Task 2. Length of Time Involved 3. Great Expense: Time, Money, Effort 4. Public Derision, Ridicule, Mocking 5. Temptation: To Change Plans; To Quit… Noah Could Not Make What He Was Doing Appear Rational!!!

10 True Christianity Is Not Rational To Those In The World Only ONE Church! Sins Washed Away In Baptism! Only ONE Right Way To Worship! The Simple Work of the Church: Preach Gospel, Edify Body, Help Needy Saints The Christian Life! (Sacrificial, Servant of Others) Law of Christ: M-D-R, Homosexuality, Alcohol…

11 God Said…. 2 Peter 3 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

12 Remember Those In Noah’s Time Matthew 24 36 But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

13 Consider… 2 Peter 3 11 Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. 14 Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless; 15 and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation…
