The scientists of the United Nations (UN) released a grim report about the climate change and its inevitable catastrophic consequences this week. The report reaffirms that humans are the responsible agents for the climate change and its apocalypses.*
As it can be seen, we humans in this era are committing more evil acts than the humans existed during the era of Noah and Lot.
About the era of Noah, Genesis 6 teaches the following:
“ 5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repented me that I have made them. “
As Genesis 6 teaches, God regretted that He created man because of his wickedness. If God had regretted for creating the man of Noah’s area, couldn’t He deeply regret for allowing man to live in our epoch? More than ever, the man of our time continues to make Him grieve ceaselessly at His heart.
People who has built nations brag about acting out of self- interests, not out of humanity, moral or ethics, and rulers commit evil deeds to keep their powers in their fists.
Religious leaders preach what they DO NOT practice, and followers follow hypocrite evangelists.
Monks, priests, pastors, and imams are strongly engaged in stealing and adulteries, and patriarchs and bishops are baptized in the devil’s pond of racism , power, and money laundering.
Philosophers worship hypocrisies , and intellectuals practice opportunism and falsehoods.
Witnesses sell their souls, and judges acquit the Guiltiest but condemn the Innocents.
Elders teach the young lies, and the youth no more respect elders.
Evils commit genocides, and the super-powers supply the ammunitions.
Friends betray friends, and spouses sabotage on their partners.
Humans wipe out humans from certain areas while Lions gracefully share the Zoos with Zebras.
Truth dies in every fraction of seconds, but falsity flourishes like the garden mushrooms.
It is true God had said in His heart, ” I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite anymore everything living, as I have done.” (Genesis 8:21). However, thy mind shall not think that He has not regretted for giving this promise as human evilness has surpassed the sky limits.
In fact, it appears that He has already regretted since the wickedness of post-Noah man has gone far beyond His expectations. As a result, the signs of Noachian storm, and the brimstones of Sodom and Gomorrah are already visible. The second Noachian Flood has arrived, but the second Noah is nowhere to be found!
