Discussion Questions
-
Explain, in your own words, what the story of the flood in Genesis reveals about God’s nature.
-
God wanted a loving relationship with mankind but they rejected Him and became wi Ken to the point that their thoughts were continually everlasting. But rather than give up on the human race and destroy everyone, God has His sight on one righteous man and his family that he chose to save humanity. Because He loves, he choose to save a small portion of the w people.
-
I feel the flood story shows that God knew he too was imperfect and realized his mistake when he sent the flood to destroy the world.
-
God is a God of love – in fact He is love – but He is also a just God. The characteristic or nature of God that is justice is perfect justice because God is perfect. In order to preserve the human race and the earth He had created, the people before the flood, which was almost everyone at the time, who had turned themselves to total evil had to be removed, destroyed, erased…and a righteous family protected and brought forth by His protection saved to re-establish the covenant, the race, the earth and all of the creatures that were worth saving at the time.
God is holy – always and forever! -
The story of the flood shows me personally that GOD will always love His creation, and as a farmer will prune off the rot from a tree to protect the tree, even if the only part that can be saved is a small cutting, GOD will do what is best for His creation and those who truly love Him according to His plan.
-
God wanted to get rid of all the bad people of the world so the world can start fresh again with love and kindness. Tha shows that God does love the people of the world, He just tries to show us lessons with his actions.
