God’s Covenant with Noah with the Sign of the Rainbow

JESUS CHRIST never has nor ever will “understand” or accept the abomination of homosexuality. Get a clue dupe. Repent now you filthy devil. ANY and ALL who condone homosexuality are an “abomination” to God (Leviticus 18:22).

“And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:” Genesis 9:14 

“Never witness a rainbow without remembering that as God hath sworn that the waters of Noah shall no more go over the earth, so He will not withdraw His kindness.” FB Meyer

After the building of the ark (Noah’s ark) and the flood which killed all but 8 souls, soon as the waters subsided, the LORD made a covenant with Noah and his family, a covenant of promised blessings which extends to us by the providential hand of God today in Christ.

If you don’t stand WITH God, you stand against Him.

The “abomination” of homosexuality is condemned of God. Shut your mouth and agree with God or suffer the vengeance of eternal fire, coward. Time to man up and get a spine. Leviticus 18:22 anyone? Read Romans 1.

It’s time for “old school” MEN to stand up and speak the truth. Such as “MEN CAN’T GET PREGNANT OR HAVE BABIES” IGNORAMUS! Stand up and SPEAK, now. Fetus’ are babies and anyone agreeing with their murder is a demonic enemy of God. Repent now and obey God. Speak His truth, His Word.

God’s Covenant with Noah

Genesis 9 – The Noahic Covenant

 

God: I will take care of you and your family I will never judge the world by flood again. The rainbow will be a reminder of my covenant. 5 Covenants: Noah Abraham Moses David Jesus

Only 8 souls were saved through the flood – Noah and his family.

God is now reinstating to the only humans on the earth at that time, that they were to have dominion and stewardship on the earth over the fishes, the fowls and all wildlife.

In this covenant with Noah, the LORD is revealing His providential mercy, destiny, His protection, His provision for His people. God’s rainbow was a sign which represents His mercy and His desire to bless mankind and not harm. The LORD is good in His desire to bless men and yet He is holy and just. Only those who repent and receive Christ for the forgiveness of their sins are His children (Acts 16:30-31; 20:21; Romans 10:9-10, 13, etc.).

“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9

When you study and obtain a thorough knowledge of the book of Genesis, you gain a foundation of understanding for the remainder of your life, and an understanding of the Creator and creation and the whole of Scripture. Genesis is the book of origins, the book of beginnings. Think foundation (Psalms 11:3).

Someone has noted:

“Genesis is very much a book about OUR own lives, the seven main characters representing advancing forms of life that can be found in God’s elect, from Adam (fallen human nature), to Cain and Abel (flesh and spirit), Noah (regeneration), Abraham (faith), Isaac (sonship), Jacob (service), and finally Joseph (the ruler in Christ’s image qualified through suffering).”—-A.D

Any person who does not thoroughly know the contents of the book of Genesis and the divine truths contained therein, does not have a sound foundation of biblical knowledge and understanding. How could anyone possibly claim a “higher education” and yet not have a thorough knowledge and understanding of the book of Genesis? Genesis means origins and every cardinal doctrine in God’s Word is found in Genesis, in at least seed form.

The first book in the Bible. It’s called Genesis. Noah had 3 sons of whom the whole earth was overspread after the flood that killed all but 8. His sons are Shem (eastern, Orientals, Jews), Ham (Africans), and Japeth (Caucasians). Genesis 6-10

Every time someone sees a rainbow, God intends for them to be reminded that though He flooded the earth and drowned all but 8 souls, He will never judge mankind using a flood of waters again.

As soon as the waters subsided, Noah sought the LORD and the LORD made a covenant (agreement with specific terms) with Him.

Gen 8:20  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. 

Gen 8:21  And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; 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 his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. 

Gen 8:22  While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. 

Gen 9:11  And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth. 

Gen 9:12  And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: 

Gen 9:13  I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. 

Gen 9:14  And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: 

Gen 9:15  And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and THE WATERS SHALL NO MORE BECOME A FLOOD TO DESTROY ALL FLESH. 

Gen 9:16  And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth. 

Gen 9:17  And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth. 

Keep in mind that though the LORD will never destroy the earth again using the flood of waters, He surely will destroy it by fire. Read 2 Peter 3.

“MY BOW IN THE CLOUDS. The rainbow was God’s sign and ongoing reminder of His promise never again to destroy all inhabitants on this earth by a flood. The rainbow should remind us of God’s mercy and His faithfulness to His Word.” Donald Stamps, Life in the Spirit Study Bible, p. 21

F.B. Meyer on God’s covenant with Noah and the rainbow:

“Genesis 9:1-17

GOD’S COVENANT WITH NOAH

As the human race started afresh on its career, God blessed it, as at the first. God always stands with us in a new start. The prohibition against the use of blood in food is often repeated. See Lev_17:11; Act_15:29. In a very deep sense, the blood is the life. When we speak of being redeemed by the blood of Jesus, we mean that we have been saved by His sacrificed life. The blood maketh atonement for the soul. But while animal life might be used for food or sacrifice, human life was surrounded by the most solemn sanctions. A Covenant is a promise or undertaking resting on certain conditions, with a sign or token attached to it. The bow in the cloud, the Lord’s Supper, the wedding ring are signs and seals of their respective covenants. Never witness a rainbow without remembering that as God hath sworn that the waters of Noah shall no more go over the earth, so He will not withdraw His kindness. See Isa 54:9.”

The significance of the rainbow by John Wesley:

Genesis 9:11

“There shall not any more be a flood – God had drowned the world once, and still it is as provoking as ever; yet he will never drown it any more, for he deals not with us according to our sins. This promise of God keeps the sea and clouds in their decreed place, and sets them gates and bars, Hitherto they shall come, Job_38:10-11. If the sea should flow but for a few days, as it doth twice every day for a few hours, what desolations would it make? So would the clouds, if such showers as we have sometimes seen, were continued long. But God by flowing seas, and sweeping rains, shews what he could do in wrath; and yet by preserving the earth from being deluged between both, shews what he can do in mercy, and will do in truth.”

Though God promised and covenanted to never again destroy the earth using a flood, that doesn’t negate that He is just and will judge each and every man for his life on earth. The LORD is called “the judge of all the earth” and will renovate the earth in the future by fire instead of water (Genesis 18:25; Psalms 94:2; 2 Peter 3). 2 Peter 3:3-13 reveals that the coming judgment of the earth and its people will be by fire instead of by water.

Jesus refers to how people were living before the flood of Noah and relates it to His return.

“But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” Matthew 24:36-39 

Genesis | Making Peace with God Now – Before it’s too late | Fresh Start with God – Returning to Christ

Now, here in 2 Peter 3, the Holy Spirit brings back to our remembrance who the LORD judged the people of the earth who didn’t know Him by a water flood and how His future judgment on the wicked will be by fire.

The Day of the Lord Will Come

2 Pet 3:1  This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: 
2 Pet 3:2  That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour: 
2 Pet 3:3  Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 
2 Pet 3:4  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 the creation. 
2 Pet 3:5  For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 
2 Pet 3:6  Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 
2 Pet 3:7  But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. 
2 Pet 3:8  But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 
2 Pet 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 
2 Pet 3:10  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. 
2 Pet 3:11  Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 
2 Pet 3:12  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? 
2 Pet 3:13  Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 
2 Pet 3:14  Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

Are You “Noble” in God’s Eyes?

Weighing Every Idea, Notion, Philosophy, and Teaching Against the One Holy Standard JUST because the apostle Paul was teaching, didn’t negate the need for the Berean saints to judge EVERYTHING against God’s written Word. “These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” Acts 17:11 Just why did the LORD pronounce His blessed approval on these disciples in the town of Berea? Why did He say that they were “noble”? in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched […]
