<TITLE>04. Par 11-13</TITLE>L-11 Let us see what taken place in the days of the coming of the destruction and judgment in the days of Noah and in the days of Lot. They were both affiliated with the third destruction. Jesus said, "Just as it were in those days, so will it be when the Son of man comes the--the second time." It'll be just like it was then.
And we're taught that in the days of Noah, and not only at that time, but in the days of Lot, as junction times... And every time before judgment comes to the earth, God sends mercy call.
Just before the days of the antediluvian destruction God sent a prophet to the earth, Enoch. And He sent an Angel, and He sent a message, and He did the supernatural. But what did man do? They eat, they drank, they planted, they build; they rejected the call of the message. Though the message that each of those men... Both Lot and Noah their message consisted of this: grace, mercy, and deliverance. Grace, God's mercy to the people, was presented through grace, and deliverance was presented to the people, but they turned it down. What did we find them doing? Laughing, scoffing, making fun, marrying wives, living in adultery, building, planting.

L-12 Look at the building program today. And let me say something right here also. Look at the advancement in the scientific world. Now, I say this, not to scandalize, neither do I say it to hurt feelings; I only say it because it's the truth. But those kind of works comes from the other side. The sons of Cain become great builders and great scientists, to temper iron and metals, and build; and the great scientific world was a very religious world but come from Cain.
But the lineage that come from Seth were poor, humble peasant type who believed God. And when the prophet preached, they received it. When the supernatural was done, they received it. And when deliverance was offered, they received it, and the other side perished in the judgments of the Lord God.
They thought because they were smart, that they could just live with any woman they wished to. Because they were smart, they could drink and it was nobody's business. But God hates sin, and He will not let it go unjudged. And the very thing that destroyed the unbeliever, took the believer to safety. It was the waters of judgment that destroyed the unbeliever, and it was the same waters that packed Noah to safety. And it's the Gospel message that will destroy the unbeliever, that'll take the Church in the rapture before the judgment ever strikes. They will be safely carried through.

L-13 Jesus said, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature." And when this is done, then the end time shall be. When the Gospel has reached the world, our blessed Saviour said, "Then the end shall be."
Now, He never said when you've passed tracts over the world, or when you sent Bibles over the world, or when you have sent missionaries over the world, but when this Gospel has been preached. What is the Gospel then? Paul said, "The Gospel came to us not in Word only, but through the power and the demonstrations of the Holy Spirit," the Holy Spirit making the Word manifest. For if you follow the very next verse, when He said, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature," He said, "These signs shall follow them that believe. Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the world," to manifest Himself the same yesterday, today, and forever.
