πŸ’₯ The reasons God brought the flood and destroyed this world ... and the reason God destroyed the city of Sodom.


πŸ’₯  The flood brought by God in the days of Noah:

Genesis 6

5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

6 And it repented the LORD that HE had made man on the earth, and it grieved HIM at HIS heart.

7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth ME that I have made them.

8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.

13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before ME; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth

So God brought the flood upon this earth and destroyed both man and animals, only Noah was saved with those he brought into the ark.

Because man corrupted the earth and brought violence upon the earth, God destroyed the earth with the flood.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

And what about today?

πŸ’₯  Man corrupts the earth by doing things opposite from the Holy Bible which is the Word of God.  Men of this world and the apostate churches of today have turned aside from the Word of God and do those things that please themselves, casting aside God as they bring their acts of corruption upon this earth today.

I Corinthians 6:9-10

9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (homosexuals), nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Where these sins were committed in times past, but hidden, today they are often flaunted in the eyes of all.

They demand their rights to commit sins.  And they even demand that others approve their sins.

Do you think their sins will not reach God?  Will there be a time when God says, "Enough," as God did in the days of Noah when God brought the flood, and in the days God destroyed all persons in the city of Sodom.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  The destruction by God of all who lived in the city of Sodom.

Two angels of God were sent by God to destroy Sodom.

Genesis 19:12-13  And the men (the angels) said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:

13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it.

Why?  What were the sins of Sodom?

In every "quarter" of the city of Sodom were homosexuals seeking to do homosexual acts.

Genesis 19:4-7

4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:

5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.  (Have sex with them.)

6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,

7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

What does God say in the Bible about homosexuals and lesbians?

Romans 1:21-28

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified HIM not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Genesis 13:13   But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.

Deuteronomy 23:17  God says:  There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.

(Sodomite: homosexual)

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Today, people all over this world are being commanded to accept and honor sins against God.

I Corinthians 6:9-10

Sins of adultery, fornication, drunkenness (which some medical people call a disease but the Bible calls a sin... I Cor. 5:11), abortion (which is murdering your own child), homosexual-lesbians (which some even say they were born that way but God says in Bible that from the beginning of the creation, God created them male and female  Mark 10:6)

And other sins stated as sin in the Bible such as:  uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.  (Gal. 5:19-21)

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

As in the days of Noah where men corrupted the world with their sins. And in the days of Sodom where homosexuals came from every quarter of Sodom, seeking sex with other men. God destroyed their world and them, as God will do in the day of the Lord and at the end of the great tribulation.

Jesus says:

Matthew 24:21;29-31

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And HE (Jesus) shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

2 Peter 3:10-14

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.
