The Tragic Case Of The God Ignorers
MT 24:38 “For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
MT 24:39 and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Many people in Noah's day were caught unaware when the Flood came. They were totally unprepared. Imagine their surprise. It was all because of their willful neglect of God's warning through Noah. They were a bunch of God ignorers.
You look at their lives, on the whole, they seemed to have lived normal lives. Nothing dark about them is said. No out and out sin is mentioned. But what is glaring in their lives is the thing that is not mentioned at all, which is conspicuous by its absence --- God. The whole of their lives can be described as "eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage." That's all and nothing more. And we have many who are exactly like this in our time!
Ps 50:22 “Consider this, you who forget God, or I will tear you to pieces, with none to rescue:
My friend, are you someone who has been ignoring God all this time? Repent. Take God seriously! Be warned; a sweeping judgment will come over this world. Come to Christ in faith, enter the ark, as it were, and find salvation.
