Difference between Noah's time and Sodom and Gomorrah.
Pay attention carefully how Jesus referred to both times:
• “And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.” (Luke 17:26,27).
• “Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; but the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.” (Luke 17:28-30)
Note that Jesus cited “they were eating, they were drinking” to both occasions.
However, He didn’t quote “they were marrying, they were being given in marriage” to Sodom and Gomorrah. The reason is because, there, the sexual immorality reached so great level that they only cared about sexual pleasure. They didn’t care for their partner. There was no commitment between man and woman.
At Noah’s time, although there was engagement, they misrepresented the Creator’s purport to the marriage, behaving like lovers.
Alike, Jesus didn’t aver “they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building” to Noah’s time. The reason is because the idea of perennial cities aroused with Nimrod (Gen 10:8,10). Before his Babylon, people were peregrine (as all of us ought to be (1Pe 2:11).
I know that it is very convenient to guarantee our sustenance and what we conquer. To live as somebody that was born of the water and of the spirit is a big defiance (John 3:8). After all, who wish to live like the father of faith (without know where he comes from and where it is going – Heb 11:8)?
Nonetheless, recall that the mark of the beast is related to purchase and selling (Rev 13:18).
So, let’s take in how to live by faith (Hab 2:4; Rom 1:17; Gal 3:11; Heb 120:38) urgently. Let’s imbibe how to be happy without what the world has to offer (1John 2:15,16) Without delay. After all, Jesus’ coming never was so close.
Finally, have a good day allowing Jesus guide your wherever He wants, without allowing your fears preclude this.
