What will the last days be like?When people ask about concerning trends in the world, the answer is found in Jesus's words comparing the last days to the days of Noah and Lot.
Violence and unnatural sex in Noah's dayGenesis 6 shows Noah's time was filled with constant violence and unnatural sexual relationships involving demonic possession of men.
The wickedness of Sodom in Lot's dayGenesis 19 recounts the angels visiting Sodom and the men of the city demanding homosexual relations with them.
Standing as a light in a wicked worldKnowing the world will grow more wicked excites anticipation for Christ's return, calling believers to uncompromisingly stand for truth rather than trying to fix society.
Being like Noah in the last daysJust as the world will resemble Noah's time, there will also be people like Noah who walk with God and serve as preachers of righteousness.
Having a passion to build the churchNoah's single passion was building the ark to survive destruction, just as modern believers should focus on building Christ's church with disciples who truly follow Jesus.
Raising a family that follows the LordNoah successfully raised his three sons to follow God and cooperate in building the ark, reflecting the standard that a leader's children must be disciples.
Serving God through personal sacrificeBuilding the ark required Noah to sacrifice his own resources, modeling how believers in the last days must serve the Lord at personal cost rather than acting like average Christians.
Guiding family relationships in a wicked worldAs a godly father, Noah ensured his sons married godly wives who also joined in building the ark, calling believers today to lead people toward righteousness.
