Living life without God.
Living life without God.
Gen 7:1-24
7:1 Adonai said to Noah, “Come with all of your household into the ship, for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation. 2 You shall take seven pairs of every clean animal with you, each and its mate. Of the animals that are not clean, take two, each and its mate. 3 Also of the birds of the sky, seven pairs, male and female, to keep seed alive on the surface of all the land. 4 For in seven days, I will cause it to rain on the land for forty days and forty nights. I will destroy every living thing that I have made from the surface of the ground.” 5 Noah did according to everything that Adonai commanded him. 6 Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came on the land. 7 Noah went into the ship with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, because of the floodwaters. 8 Clean animals, unclean animals, birds, and everything that moves along the ground 9 went by pairs to Noah into the ship, male and female, as God commanded Noah. 10 After the seven days, the floodwaters came on the land. 11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the sky’s windows opened. 12 It rained on the land forty days and forty nights. 13 In the same day Noah, and Shem, Ham, and Japheth—the sons of Noah—and Noah’s wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered into the ship—14 they, and every animal after its kind, all the livestock after their kind, every reptile that moves on the land after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every wing-type. 15 Pairs from all flesh with the breath of life in them went into the ship to Noah. 16 Those who went in were male and female of all flesh. They came in as God commanded him; then Adonai closed it up behind him.

Scripture’s Main Question
How can we dwell with the Lord again?
How can we dwell with the Lord again?
Gen 7:1-24
17 The flood was forty days on the land. The waters increased, and lifted up the ship, and it was lifted up above the land. 18 The waters rose, and increased greatly on the land, and the ship floated on the surface of the water. 19 The waters rose very, very high on the land, and all the high mountains that were under the whole sky were covered. 20 The waters rose fifteen cubits higher, and the mountains were covered. 21 All flesh died that moved on the earth, including birds, livestock, animals, every reptile that moves along the land, and every human. 22 Everything that had the breath of life in its nostrils, among all on the dry land, died. 23 Every living thing was wiped away that was on the surface of the ground, whether human, or livestock, or reptile, or bird of the sky. They were wiped from the land. Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ship. 24 The waters flooded the land one hundred fifty days.

Psa 15:1-2
Adonai, who may dwell in your sacred home/tent?

He who walks blamelessly and
works righteousness and
speaks honestly from the heart.
