Discuss Genesis 7 Page 7

GEN 7-5-1...Cheryl, I don 't think I 've ever heard that asked before, but I would think at the point where Adam and Eve disobeyed their Heavenly Father and ate of the forbidden fruit, they became unclean before God. And that is why God has gone through lengthy steps to correct this, In Isaiah 64:6... But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags and we all do fade as a leaf and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away... God has layed everything at our feet, even His own Son, and He expects little in return, just as any parent would, He expects Obedience, He set a day of rest in motion at Sinai, which was a continuation of the 7th day of Creation. He expects us to uphold that day if we love Him, the world expects us to uphold Sunday the 1st day if we love satan, they don 't tell us that, but when we follow the commandments of man over God, it can be none other than the commandment of Satan, this is why the world has so many problems, the deception of Satan is Worldwide, probably less than one percent of the World 's population observes the true 7th day Sabbath, but that is exactly why the scripture says in Matt 7:14...Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and FEW there be that find it... It may sound bad, but for you that has an ear to hear, this may be the Greatest story ever told if you heed it. I hope you do. PRAISE THE ANCIENT OF DAYS AND HIS HOLY WORD. AMEN!!

Genesis 7 2 God tells Noah to take of every clean beast by seven and every unclean by two into the ark. Noah took his wife their three sons and their wives. My question is are the humans clean or unclean.

GEN 7-4-30...Dewey, you said in your comment on 4-22, I would say sin not God, created these diseases, the fact being that sin is transgression of the law, nothing more, it in itself cannot create anything Dewey, Exodus 20: 11... For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it... Notice it says and all that in them is, that would include bacteria and viruses...like malaria, smallpox. Ebola, It doesn 't matter what it is God either created it or allowed it to be created. AMEN!!

Seth, that is very good question I will attempt to answer it by the Holy Bible Scripture. I would say sin not God created these diseases before the flood after the sin of Adam and Eve. Before that we know Luficer invented sin was kicked out of Heaven because of it and became the Devil, Satan, Serpent,and that old Dragon. This was the origin of all evil. The Scripture tells us that Satan is the god of this world system which Adam gave him the right to rule the planet when he sinned. Although God use evilbeings or Devils to bring His good will to past He did not and does not create evil. James 1:13 tells us that our God cannot be tempted with evil and doesn 't tempt any man. James 1:17 tells us that every good and perfect gift or thing is from above they comes from the father of light. 2 Cor. 4:4 tells us that Satan control this world evil system Proverbs 16:4 tells niv tells us that God Jehovah works out everything to his own ends-even the wicked for the day of disaster. God bless us and our understanding of His Word. Amen.

The Chapter is very interesting it gives you a lot to think about and how you must live your like. It opened my eyes more and I have to focus more on the word

GEN 7-15..I 'm no authority, I would say GOD created every living thing including the viruses and bacteria, also like the briar bushes and thorn bushes and weeds, all things that makes life unpleasant, for a disobedient people, who is in a constant state of rebellion against GOD and HIS Laws even to this day! I want to add a separate reply to a person who believes we still have dominion over God 's creatures, it may be in a tyrannical sense of the word but to think we have dominion over the animals like it was in the beginning no it is definitely not the same. Our dominion is with fast land rovers, guns, and cages! When God gave dominion to Adam and Eve their dominion was in Authority and Strength not this feeble, chicken legged, anti-steward idea of caging animals for man to walk around and look at, while the cagers pocket the money, and the animals suffer a life sentence behind bars. All just feeding mans vanity, and corrupt nature. PRAISE GOD FOR HIS PERFECT WAYS AND HIS STRENGTH IN THE SPIRIT, AND HIS HOLY BLOOD THAT COVERS OUR SIN. AMEN!!

What about bacteria and viruses...like malaria, smallpox. Ebola, etc....did God create those before the flood?

Someone ' comment a ways back, about the flood being just a parable, I did not live through it but, I have heard that almost every country in the World gives an account of a historic flood, it also would explain seashells found in the mountains, whales found in the deserts. I myself will go with God 's biblical account in Genesis. And I also believe even though there is no hard evidence, that God has continued to create even after the flood, God doesn 't half to get approval from man, GOD is a creator, He Creates, He 's probably created new species of foul, beasts fish, even man, who knows but one thing is sure don 't underestimate what he can do, He answers to know one, HE IS GOD!! PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME. AMEN!!

Hello P Genesis 7 14 says it all. If you look at it from this point of view as balancing out the eco system then every animal was needed. However, we still have dominion over the animals.

Did Noah bring poisonous snakes on the Ark ? And tapeworms and scorpions ? I guess he had to. That 's too bad.

Hello Heather Romans 5 12 " Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned It was Adam actions that brought about sin.

This chapter is so great, that from one "little " sin in the Garden man has now progressed or regressed to murder Cain ,fornication and everything else. To have made God think He had made a mistake creating us, we must be rather awful...

Hello Dharam That is a beautiful type and shadow that you gave. Jesus is our Ark. We must follow Acts 2 38 in order to be saved. This is how we are in Jesus Christ spiritual ark.

The Ark was actually a type of Jesus. Just like all who were in the ark were saved so all who are in Jesus will be saved.

Hello Insight 777 To further explain. In Matthew Jesus was explaining that no man knows when he is coming back. However, the signs will show like in Noah s day. They will be eating and drinking, marring and given in marriage, Matthew 24 36 thru 38. See the Bible You know how it states out of the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established. 2 Corinthians 13 1 This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established . I believe that Jesus was validating the story of Noah. He reminded the people of that event. How do we know that 26 million life forms were on the Ark.? It did not give the number. Back then it may not have been all of the species that we have now. Remember there are new species being discovered all the time. God is Omniscient, all knowing, I am quite sure that he had Noah build the Ark that would hold all the species of that time. Remember the Word of God is truth. John 17 17 "Sanctify them through thy truth thy word is truth ".

Hello Insight 777 No, the story of Noah is very real. It happened. I was not there, but since the Word of God cannot lie then I take it on faith that it actually happened. Jesus used it as an example of what is going to be going on during the last days of this Earth and this Heaven. God is going to destroy this Earth and this Heaven with fire this time.

Jesus said the only sign given to man about the end of days is Noah. Perhaps the story of Noah is a parable ment only as a warning for the people at the end of days as told of in Revelation. For all the fountains of the great deep to be broken up and rise to the surface, it is reasonable that a great worldwide earthquake would occur. This could be a tectonic type of event where the continents move out of position like the greatest earthquake fortold in Revelation. The most precise calculation ever offered for the estimated total number of species on Earth is 6.5 million species found on land and 2.2 million dwelling in the ocean. The entering of all known species in taxonomic databases such as the Catalogue of Life and the World Register of Marine Species makes analysis possible. A minimum of 4 each 2 pairs is 26 million living creatures on the ark. But with 14 of each clean animal specie onboard that is vastly more than 26 million. A dutch contractor Johan Huibers finished building an exact replica of Noah s Ark in April 2007. The Ark is huge but it is unreasonable to think that vastly more than 26 million life forms could fit inside of the ark. That also supports the story of Noah as a parable and not literal.

7 's means 14 and less with unclean,else,according to Steven 's comment when Noah sacrificed later on he would have wiped a species by doing so if there were only two. Seven is a sacred number in the eyes of our God

I really found this scripture intresting things that I did not know I know now thanks be to God

A mist UP from the earth is not the same as rain coming DOWN. It must have been a tropical climate. In the beginning the earth did not exist Genesis 1,2

In the beginning water covered the entire earth. However GOD divided the waters from the waters. He simply reversed what HE did in the beginning, which took a total of 40 days to complete. Also it did automatically rain on the earth before this took place or nothing living would have lived Gen. 2 6 please read.

Noah was the 7th Great Grandson of Adam. The flood happened about 1,656 years after the creation of Adam. Joseph the husband of Mary was the 56th Great Grandson of Adam.

7 sets of male and female of the clean for a total of 14, 2 sets of male and female of those that are not clean for a total of 4.

Neal Depends on what translation you use 'by two, the male and his female. ' I interpret this as only two of each kind.

I think when it talk about the waters of the flood they were rain, the water under the earth burst forth and the water over the earth a kind of shield burst as well so water from two directions. also burst there had not been any rain before the flood

Vs 11 first refers to fountains of the great deeps then to rain which is referred to as the windows of heaven were opened It is obvious that when God saperated the dry land from the water on the third day of creation much water was left under the dry land We can see this in the volcanic eruptions today of which 70 pct is water mostly in the form of steam Also have in min that it had never rained before I believe that the temperature of the earth was the same everywhere then The climatic changes came little by little during the centuries

the waters of the flood came not only from above but from under the earth also there was a much higher oxygen level then with a great canopy above God brought that down which is why all life grows much smaller now with shorter lifespans also there is found fossils of sea creatures on tops o the highest mountains plus other cool facts that prove the biblical account check out some good creation ministrys out there or u could jus believe the bible as TRUE science confirms the word every time

if all the ice on the planet melted and all the clouds rained till they were gone from the sky there still would not be enough rise in water on the land to cover more than lowlands so where did all the water come from

What word is in chapter 7 that not found in the rest of the bible except in Revelation
