GEN 6:17And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth,
TO DESTROY ALL FLESH, WHEREIN IS THE BREATH OF
LIFE,
FROM UNDER HEAVEN; AND EVERY THING THAT IS IN THE EARTH
SHALL DIE.
GEN 7:23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth:
and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.
How can the above verses
not be completely self-explanatory ???
NOAH'S FLOOD..... World-wide or local?
Some groups, including the Shepherds Chapel have suggested that
Noah's flood may have been a localized flood, in attempt to explain that this was how the
races survived this flood, particularly how the
"kenite" survived, otherwise they could not suggest that Noah's
*entire family( the *eight upon the ark ) were all of the Adamic race.
2 Peter 2:5 2 And
spared not
the old world,
but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Genesis 9:17And 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.
18And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan.
19 These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.
Lets see what the Bible says....
Genesis 6:6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
7And 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.
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE A LITTLE LOCAL FLOOD TO
YOU?
NEXT...WE ARE TOLD OVER and OVER THIS FLOOD WAS SENT TO DESTROY ALL MANKIND FROM THE ENTIRE FACE OF THE EARTH.
GEN.6:11The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for ALL flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13And 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. [NOTICE THE ENTIRE FACE OF THE *EARTH WAS DESTROYED
AS WELL]
GEN.6:17And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, TO DESTROY ALL FLESH, WHEREIN IS THE BREATH OF LIFE,
from under heaven; and EVERY THING THAT IS IN THE EARTH
SHALL DIE.
IT'S VERY CLEAR WHAT IS PLAINLY WRITTEN....
SOME ADDITIONAL VERSES THAT CONFIRM THIS FLOOD WAS TOTAL ARE...
GEN 7:19And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high
hills, that were under the WHOLE HEAVEN, were covered.
20Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.
21And ALL FLESH DIED that moved UPON THE
EARTH, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every
creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, AND EVERY
MAN;
22All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry and, died.
COULD
GOD BE ANY CLEARER?
23AND EVERY LIVING SUBSTANCE which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they
were destroyed from the earth:
AND NOAH ONLY REMAINED ALIVE, AND THEY THAT WERE WITH HIM
IN THE ARK.
THIS IS WHAT THE BIBLE DECLARES!!!
WAS GOD MISTAKEN?
DID GOD FAIL?
WILL YOU REALLY BELIEVE SOMEONE WHO
WOULD TRY TO TELL YOU NOAH'S FLOOD WAS JUST A LOCAL
FLOOD
? OR.....
CAN YOU READ WHAT IS ACTUALLY WRITTEN?
