In Matthew 24:37-39, Yeshua lets us know how things will be, and what we can expect as the end draws near. Some people totally miss what is being said here. I see this as a prophetic statement in that it lets us know the mindstate of mankind during the time of His return. So how do we decipher what He was talking about? We need to tun back are Bibles all the way to Genesis 6. Amazingly, this was really not to long after creation that sin was so rampant that the things that YHVH once said were “good” had now become evil. Now evil, as many view the word doesn’t insinuate that things are satanic, or deprave although it can refer to that as well, but this is man’s view of the word. We view people like Hitler, Jeffrey Dahmer, and people of that nature as evil, based on how they were cold blooded murderers. However, in the Matthew 18:31-33 , Yeshua tells a parable about a servant who owed his master a debt, and how the master forgave him. This same servant, had people under him who owed him money, but rather than showing mercy on them, he began to beat them and imprisoned them. No doubt, these same people cried to him for mercy, just as he did when he was the one who owed, yet he refused to hear them. When his master heard of what he had done, he called him a “wicked” servant, and brought back to his remembrance how he was once showed mercy and as such should extend mercy to those asking of him. Wicked and evil could be considered related in that their meanings are very much alike. To sum it up, in YHVH’s eyes, anything operating contrary or independently of how He established them to function is considered evil or wicked.
Now as we go back to Genisis 6, We see that YHVH was completely outraged with His creation. It starts off talking about the B’nei HaElohim (“Sons of God”) seeing that the “daughters of men” were beautiful and as such, they desired them. Lets look at theses B’nei HaElohim (Sons of God) first. There hae been many a debate on just who these people were. Just being honest, as far as I can tell, a majority of the people side with those of the opinion that these were the sons of Caine, the brother of Abel, whereas the other side view these people as Angels. Lets take a closer look at this. Going back to the Gospels, Yeshua called Himself the “Son of Man’ (B’nei HaAdom) quite often. This was because He actually came through man to enter the world, even though He was also the Son of God (B’nei HaElohim). But how was He both? Well, as I said, coming through Mary, it allowed Him to become man, or rather Son of Man in that sense. But what made Him Son of God (B’nei HaElohim), was that He was directly connected to YHVH. The same title applies to all of the Angels, down to Adam. Remember, YHVH personally created Adam from the dust and then breathed the “breath of life” into him, causing him to become a living soul. Anything coming about directly from man is being made indirectly by YHVH, meaning it lacks His physical touch, thereby makin it a “Son of Man”, and not a Son of God. Is this making sense? Let’s look at the book of Daniel for furhter proof. When King Nebuchadnezzar casts the Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego into the fiery furnace, upon his on confession, he noticed the three of them standingin the flames along with a fourth person, who looked like a “B’ei HaElohim” (Son of God). Again, the term is used describing Angel’s, who as I have stated are “directly” connected to YHVH. When I look at the debate about this, I am really amazed that those whosay that these “B’nei HaElohim” (Sons of God) were the son’s of Caine. What sense would it make for Moses to coin to phrases to describe mankind if there was no real difference between them? It simply doesn't make sense. Why do I say this. Well as you look at the next few verses of Genesis 6, we see that these same group of men, haven taken the “daughters of men”, (meaning that they were born directly through man, but indirectly from YHVH), and impregnated them, causing them to give birth to these “men of renown” as the KJV calls it. These offspring of the B’nei HaElohim (Sons of God) and the daughters of men where giants. Yes, I said giants. How do we know? Well, lets go back to the original texts, (the Hebrew texts), the ones in which ALL Bibles were translated from. In the Hebrew manuscripts, the words used to describe these offspring is “Nephilim”, which means “giants”. You can take a further glance at this in the Strong’s Concordance. I use Strong’s quite often when trying to get to the root of a word in Hebrew, but it is not my only source. Personally I like to pull from Hebrew or rather Jewish sources, simply for the sake of complete accuracy. There have been a few errors found in Strong’s, but in the case with the word Nephilim, they were dead on. This word actually appears numerous times throughout the Bible. As a matter of fact, I know some of you believe that Goliath was the only giant in the Bible, but during the time of Moses, they existed. In fact, when Joshua and the other spies went to spy out the land before attacking, they came back with report that the Nephilim were in the land, and that they were like grasshoppers in their eyes. Ok, I don’t want to get to far ahead of myself. So, we have first established that there were giants in the land and that they were the offspring of the Angels, who mated with women. What else went on? The book of Genesis records that the heart of man was wicked and thought of evil continually. There were countless cases of men killing one another, and it was so bad that the blood of the slain cried out to YHVH. In a short span of time, YHVH ‘s creation had literally turned upside down. According to extra biblical sources (credible sources apart from the Bible, that further validate the Bible), we also learn that there was a lot of sexual immorality going on, much like today. The Book of Enoch points out that man wanted to be able have sex with women and not worry about her becoming pregnant. It was undesireable to most men how after childbirth, the some women would lose their figures, so in order to ensure that this didn't happen, they came up with an elixir that after the woman takes it, she could not get pregnant. Most women gladly took it, but for those who didn’t, no man would dare touch her. This also grieved YHVH because with no more pro-creation going on, the Earth would never be full of people as He had desired. In all of this, man ate drank and were merry as the forgot YHVH and did what was right in their own eyes. They even had their own “created” gods to call on. This was the status of all mankind, with the exception of one, Noach. Genesis records that Noach “found grace in YHVH ‘s eyes”. It was this Noach, whom YHVH first warned the coming judgement, and gave instructions to build the Ark.
Yeshua remarked that as it was in the days of Noach, so shall it be at the coming of B’nei HaAdom” (The Son of Man). From looking at Yeshua’s words in the Gospels concerning this, in contrast with Genesis 6, we see interesting similarities between man then and man now. I mean just as their were constant cases of killing then, you can just turn on the news on any given day to find multiple reports of killings ranging from random school or work place shootings all the way to domestic violence ending in death. Not doubt just as the blood of the slain cried out to YHVH in the days of Noach, those same cries cry out today. Looking at Scripture, homosexuality has always been an issue within the history of man. So much so that YHVH had to address it in Torah, stating that it was not right in His sight, and furthermore that harsh penalties were to be carried out to anyone caught doing this. An entire city was given to sexual depravity to include homosexuality, resulting in the complete destruction of it. It can truly be said that this was an act of abomination in the sight of YHVH. I find it interesting how within the last 20 or so years that the LGBTQ agenda has gotten so much momentum that it has forced it’s way into every aspect of life. It moves with such a fury that no one dares to stand in it’s way. I tend to keep my eye on LGBTQ’s conquest, and it would seem that all that it eyes, it conquers. There was a time that my son and I could watch our favorite superhero shows on TV and it would seem that every one of them has a character that is a part of te LGBTQ movement. In recent news, it would seem that in the state of Texas, the State is looking to pass a bill forcing churches to allow people in the LGBTQ lifestyle to be able to be employed for them regardless of their lifestyle practices. This bill passing means that the church cannot stand on biblical precepts as it relates to LGBTQ employment. This could cripple the church. Being forced to allow LGBTQ adherents to be employed within the church would eventually put an end to truth being preached across the pulpit. If a preacher was to preach a sermon that is against LGBTQ, any person employed by the church that is into that lifestyle could potentially file a lawsuit against that church for creating a hostile work environment. Ultimately, there are more laws being made in support of LGBTQ than against it. Even the schools aren’t safe. In the state of New Jersey, a bill was passed requiring schools to teach kids on the history of LGBTQ.
There are so many other points that could be made about what went on in the days of Noach, and how it relates to today, but I wont. Im sure you watch the news just as I do and can see it all for yourselves. Understanding prophecy, and how things that were spoken to be shall be, one has to understand that you can’t stop it. It will not change. Heaven and earth will pass away before one jot or tittle passes away from His word. You can’t even pray against it. To pray against it is to pray against His word and His will. Not only that, but it also prays against Yeshua’s return. Not saying that one can’t pray, but our prayers need to be wise. You cannot pray against His will, but you can pray that He protect our families from this. That He would keep us from it’s influence, and most importantly that He would touch others, that they would not bow down to all of this, but instead find strength in Yeshua to stand on the Word of YHVH. Many are so oblivious to how this is prophecy that they believe that this movement can be prayed away. Truth is, it will get much worse before it gets better. The killings, sexual immorality, and even the wicked scientific discoveries on things ranging from cloning all the way to sex changes are just the beginning of the days of Noach. As I stated earlier, things will get worse before they get better. I guess my goal for this article really is to bring awareness to the reader, that things that are going on now are nothing more than things that were prophesied to go on. I had made a post on my facebook recently about the latest exploits of LGBTQ where a woman who identifies as a man was impregnated by a gay man, and as such is now pregnant and wants to have a baby, while being recognized as man. With the laws being the way the are starting to be, this woman, who identifies as a man will be listed as a man on the birth certificate, even though she is really a woman. If this isn’t an abomination, I don’t know what is. I can only imagine what kind of life that child will have. Kids as early as 5 years old are having gender issues, and being encouraged to dress as the gender they relate to. With the up and coming generation being desensitized to to LGBTQ, the future of LGBTQ seems bright. Truly, it can be said now more than any time in the past that the days of Noach are now.
