Was there really a global flood?
The story is familiar to many. Wickedness was everywhere on the earth and God judged mankind by bringing a global flood that killed every living creature. But not before He commanded Noah to build an ark to save his family and two of every land animal and bird. But is that just a simple Sunday School story, or is there more to the Genesis account of the great flood than we've heard before?
This week for our Baptism Service, we'll continue our study in Genesis 7 and look at the events of Noah's Flood and how they relate to the sacrament of baptism. We'll look at some questions like: was the flood worldwide or only local to Mesopotamia, where did all the water for the flood come from, and did the Bible borrow the story of the flood from other flood stories? Most importantly we'll learn what Noah's experience in the flood can teach us about living in Christ today.
