I recently started reading the bible and had a question on the 7th and 8th part of genesis. It is kind of random, but when god floods the earth, what happens to the people on earth? Did they go to heaven at this point? Thanks for the help!

The true flood is that of lies to keep people asleep to the truth unto death.

Could you explain that a little more in depth? I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to get at.

In revelation Satan also sends a flood. Today we die only from a lack of knowledge. We have the power to beat death but we would rather work to death simply to survive.

What is the knowledge we lack? And if we can beat death, then how come we don't now?

Taking in knowledge of the one true God, who WILL save all men without question. And we are not interested in beating death because we love it. We have enough to house, clothe and feed EVERY human on the planet. Yet most of the world starves to death because we worship rocks, paper and numbers on a computer screen!

They all went to hell...If you read you shall see that Gods anger was kindled against man but only one was standing upright which was Noah. Remember They doubted God. Noah said it was going to rain and no one had ever seen rain. But everybody that died during the flood had a chance in redemption when Jesus died and went down to preach the word to them.

This is hell if we are seperated from God. But Our God will deliver even from the lowest hell (death and the grave).

True and remember at the time of Noah nobody really had a spiritual connection with God...But oh God is good. When God the Son went to the lowest parts he preached and some came back with him and some stayed.

Wasn't hell created for Lucifer? If so (correct me if I'm wrong), doesn't he create Lucifer later on?

Also, how did the plants and trees survive if there had been no rain before the flood? Thanks again for answering these.

Yes hell was originally created for lucifer and his followers but as man sinned hell engulfed them. Hell gets larger everyday. Remember Jesus said he saw lucifer fall from heaven like lightning and before Abraham he was. So that means he was there in the beginning. It was a plan from the behinning.

The plants and trees survived because remember when God created earth he said everything was good except man. So he didnt need to destroy the trees and plants. The rain used to come up from the ground as a mist

I would get into this but I don't have the time. I will mention that Jewish tradition states that many of those who came back from the dead when Jesus died on the cross were questioned by the Sanhedrin and many of them believed and left there office of stature to be with the ostracised believers in that day. Namely Nicodemus.

God mentions after he creates everything that he saw everything he created and it was very good, which was including of man. Especially being created in his image, how would man not be created as good?

So does Lucifer's fall from heaven occur before the Earth is created then?

Yes everything he created after he created it he saidnit was good but not man. Remember God didnt create Adam he formed Adam. So if he didnt create him he couldnt be good. God created Eve and still didnt call her good.See in jis image God created man. God the head, Jesus the body, and Holy Ghost the spirit. The samenimage of God. Lucifer had to fall on the first day when Light was come because thats when God started to movenhimself from earth.

I'm confused...how did he create humankind as male and female in genesis 1-27, but then formed Adam in 2-7? It still says in 1-31 that he saw everything he had made and it was very good, so I'm also still confused as to why man isn't considered good?

Okay he said he saw everything he created and saw that it was good. But remember he said he formed Adam. Adam was the first man. So all the plants and trees and animals and everything was good. Adam being formed couldnt be good because God did not create him. Now when God speaks of creating mankind he is speaking of generations. It was all in the plan. Now when he gave the blessing he was speaking of Adam and Eve. But to be fruitful and multiply means replenishment of the earth as well as children. Remember mankind as we know it started with the first two children cain and Able. By having a living soul and commiting sin man cannot be good until God says so

All of mankind, you and me, were created on that day. He knew Jeremiah before the womb. He sent John, so on and so forth. To Him, we were very good.

Spirit however, cannot be seen like the wind so a physical body was made to cover the invisible truth.

We werent created until we became a living soul. God had to create us. We were thought of by God and our life was already planned out but the day you were born you were created.
