AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Peter 3:20 who once were disobedient, when the great patience of God was waiting in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons [Noah's family], were brought safely through the water. [Gen 6-8] |
Subject: Noah and his family |
Bible Note: An interesteing side note on this: In my missionary position, I will train teenagers this summer to use evangelistic materials aimed at children to put on backyard Bible clubs. The problematic part is that one of the days has to do with Noah, and the materials add to Scripture by suggesting that God wanted to save everyone. Noah "must have" tried to convince people to get on the ark with them, but they just wouldn't listen and be saved like God so desperately "wanted"! Needless to say, that error will be addressed during the training sessions...good thing these materials are developed by another Christian organization and not mine! --Joe! |
