1 | Noah, a bad evangelist? | Gen 6:18 | T'oma | 145326 | ||
Brad, Amen! Noah was indeed faithful. Please reread my note. I didn't say anything about the time period Noah preached. My point wasn't that Noah didn't preach. My point remains that it couldn't have taken Noah 120 years to build the ark. That's where it doesn't add up. I have no doubt that the author of Hebrews would have included the time it took for Noah to BUILD the ark - had he know that Spurgeon and other authors would erroneously speculate about such matters. Perhaps, if Spurgeon did the same math as everyone else that knows the difference has done, we wouldn't be having this conversation. The ONLY place 120 years is mentioned in that story is WAY before God and Noah "got together" with a plan to build the ark. Whether it took Noah five years or one year to BUILD the ark, Hebrew's author's statements about Noah remain accurate. He was faithful. Amen? T'oma |

2 | Noah, a bad evangelist? | Gen 6:18 | srbaegon | 145328 | ||
Hello T'oma, You bring up an interesting point. Noah was 500 when he fathered his sons (Gen 5:32). Noah's sons were married when God called Noah (Gen 6:18). And Noah was 600 when the flood began (Gen 7:6). Interesting indeed! Steve |
