The Days Of Noah, Part 2
April 4, 2017
The Lord Jesus told us in Matthew 24:37, “But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.”
As it was then and is evident now, there are scores of philosophers, false teachers, and politicians who are devising schemes and carrying out plans to remold society into their system of beliefs and values.
A person was talking about a politician and they asked someone close to him, “When it comes to a press conference, how can you tell whether he is lying?”
“If he puts his finger beside his nose, he is telling the truth. If he reaches up and holds an earlobe, he is telling the truth.”
“Okay, but how do you know when he is lying?”
“When his lips are moving.”
We have come to a day when a man’s word means absolutely nothing, whether it is a treaty between nations, a marriage contract, a business contract, or a political speech. The same sins that produced the flood in Noah’s time are being committed once again in today’s society. And I believe that the wrath of God is being held back for the sake of those who are yet to be saved. Lord, have mercy!

Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
