Meet Noah
by PamFord Davis Meet Noah, a laughingstock to his neighbors, a man of righteousness to his LORD. "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. Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch (Genesis 6:13-14 KJV)." God confided in His faithful servant. "And, behold, I even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein in the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shalt die. But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee (Genesis 6:17-18 KJV)." Noah heard and heeded. He not only led animals into the protective ark; (Genesis 7:8-9) he pled and preached to his people. " Noah the eight person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly (2 Peter 2:5b KJV)." I am confident, yet saddened that the politically correct populace of our generation would perceive the preaching of Noah as hate speech.
