  1. Peter’s Lessons From the Flood 1 and 2 Peter

  2. Physical Evidence of the Flood Marine Fossils In The Mountains: In Mountains all over the world one can find sea shells and other marine fossils.  These include the Sierras, the Swiss Alps, the Himalayas, the Andes and many more.

  3. Flood Stories Around the World Native global flood stories are documented as history or legend in almost every region on earth. H.S. Bellamy in Moons, Myths and Men estimates that altogether there are over 500 Flood legends worldwide. Ancient civilizations (such as China, Babylonia, Wales, Russia, India, America, Hawaii, Scandinavia, Sumatra, Peru, and Polynesia) all have their own versions of a giant flood.

  4. Flood Stories Around the World • These flood tales are frequently linked by common elements that parallel the Biblical account including the warning of the coming flood, the construction of a boat in advance, the storage of animals, the inclusion of family, and the release of birds to determine if the water level had subsided. The overwhelming consistency among flood legends found in distant parts of the globe indicates they were derived from the same origin (the Bible's record), but oral transcription has changed the details through time.

  5. Evidence of the Flood from the Chinese Language BOAT vessel eight people

  6. Evidence of the Flood from the Chinese Language TOTAL, ALTOGETHER Hands joined, together earth eight

  7. Evidence of the Flood from the Chinese Language FLOOD water total (together, earth, eight)

  8. Peter’s Lessons from the Flood • Day of Judgment is Guaranteed: God’s Past Action 2 Peter 2:1-9 for if God did not spare angels…and did not spare the ancient world…and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah… then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment.

  9. Peter’s Lessons from the Flood • Day of Judgment is Guaranteed: God’s Word 2 Peter 3:3-7 Word of God produced the Creation “Then God said… Gen 1:3, 6, 9, etc. Word of God produced the Flood “Then God said” Gen 6:13, 17 Word of God reserved present heavens and earth for fire

  10. Peter’s Lessons from the Flood • Why Day of Judgment Hasn’t Come: God’s Patience 2 Peter 3:8-9; 1 Pet 3:20-22 Kept waiting during the Ark’s construction Gen 6:3 God’s patience has limits- it ran out Salvation came only to a few- to the 8 who got into the Ark they were brought safely through the water

  11. Peter’s Lessons from the Flood • God Has Guaranteed the Day of Judgment • God is waiting patiently • God’s patience will run out • Only those who have been baptized will be saved- who meet God’s condition of grace as Noah & family did by preparing and entering the Ark.
