1 | Noah entered the ark--exactly when? | Gen 7:1 | EdB | 225504 | ||
I think what you are seeing is what we see all through the early pages of the Book of Genesis. We are first given a narrative and then right after, in the next verses or next chapter we are given a more detailed account of what was previously spoken of. The early verses (4-7) here are telling what happened and the later are fleshing out some of the details. I think Noah and his family were on the ark 7 days before the downpour that flooded the world came. Now to link this story as symbolism pointing to the rapture is a little iffy. Anyone can see similarities between this story and concept of the pretrib rapture. But was that in fact God's intent? Or is this a nonconnected story that just happens to play into something that was never intended to be seen? We all love the story of the rapture, God is going to take us before things gets bad. However if you are Christian living in a northern African Muslim controlled country, and have seen everything you own destroyed, everyone you loved killed, and you own life in eminent danger it is hard to imagine things getting any worst. Teaching/preaching of the rapture does not have the same reception there as it does in comfortable, warm and safe America. |
