"As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man"... Jesus was quoted as saying this in Matthew 24:37 and Luke 17:26. During those days of Noah, around 2500 B.C., mankind was corrupt, adulterous, irreligious, perverted, murderous, etc... the list is actually quite long with "godlessness" being at the top of the list. Noah was the last patriarch of the Pre-Flood generation and the first patriarch in the Post-Flood world.
During the month of January, 2015, the Editor kept a journal of world events and not a day went by without something tragic, corrupt, disastrous, demoralizing or prophetical happening somewhere in our modern world. "As in the days of Noah"...
