In Matthew Jesus said as in the days of Noah so shall it be when He comes. Does that mean the nephlem will be here? With the government saying that there are UFOs could the antichrist be a nephlem? Rev. 13 says who is like the beast?
Jesus was making a comparison between the flood back in Noah's day to what is going to take place before His future judgment comes. In Noah's day, people were being warned but they mocked Noah. All those years while Noah was building the ark, the people must have thought he was crazy. A flood? Right! Up to that point, they had never even seen rain. And he's talking about God's judgment coming in the form of a flood? Even after Noah and his family entered the ark, the people were still living life as usual as if nothing was going to happen. And then the rain and the flood came. Do you think they were still mocking while they were drowning in the water?
It will be the same when Christ comes. People today are being warned but they also, like in Noah's day, they are mocking the gospel message. So Jesus is making a comparison.
Here's something very interesting. After God shut the door on the ark, do you know how long it was until it started raining? One week! That is prophecy. After the door was shut, they still didn't know it. That is why it says they didn't know it until the flood came. The flood came and took them all away. It was life as usual until it came, and it was sudden, and it was quick, and it was unexpected.
It will be the same when the Lord returns for His church. Back in Noah's day, the Lord saved Noah, his wife, his three brothers, and their wives. He saved them from the flood. It will be the same for believers. Jesus will come and remove His church from this earth, and just the same as the door of the ark was shut, when Christ removes us prior to His wrath being poured out on this earth, the door will be shut. There will be many outside the door pleading to be let in just to hear Jesus say depart, I never knew you. Just like those who mocked in Noah's day and were left out once the door was shut, it will be the same after Christ takes us away and shuts the door, as we see in Matthew chapter 25 with the parable of the 10 virgins.
