Here Comes The Flood: Noah's Mistakes

254 Words2 Pages

Here comes the flood. There came a time when the humans grew to be wicked, and God was sorry that he ever made humankind on the earth. This is when he concocted his plan to rid of his mistake. God admitting that he made a mistake shows that though he is powerful and all holy, he can still make a mistake. The one human who earned his favor was Noah. He took his family and various pairs of animals into an ark to survive the flood that God was planning. Once the flood is over (and God vows to never do such a thing again) Noah and his family begin to rebuild the earth. Years go by and Noah’s descendants are the ones who populate the earth. New cities are founded and the humans have all one language. The real purpose of the beginning chapters of

  • Comparing Noah's Life And The Six Acts Of The Bible

    What a powerful video and exemplary example of a person who was determined to break the horrific cycle of hopelessness and despair that defined his childhood and create a better story for both his own children and the struggling town in which he lived. To me, Noah’s life and the video somewhat resembled the Six Acts of the Bible- his birth as an innocent baby, the chaotic, tragic childhood he experienced, his spiritual “calling” through the inciting incident, God’s redemption in his life which consequently allowed him to become a responsible father and working through God to restore his community, and finally, continuing to be God’s servant, anticipating His return to earth. Fortunately, I have not been faced with the monstrous circumstances

    Noah the Movie vs Scripture There are quite a few differences in the movie Noah than from the Bible. I didn’t like the movie as it wasn’t very accurate and is giving false depictions to anyone who doesn’t know scripture or what Genesis or the rest of the Bible says about these events. I am glad we read the Bible first and then watched the movie so we could really see the differences. In the movie, Noah was distant from God.
