Scientists, the article said, examined sediments in Australia and Asia and they discovered that sea levels had been rather stable for about the past 6,000 years. Now, they say, things are happening a little differently – which they say is possibly caused by greenhouse gases.
The date is very interesting. As Bible believers will almost instantly recognize, there is something unique about the date, which is about the time of Noah's flood.
This probably unsuspecting testimony comes from scientists that something unique happened at about that time. Believers know that God's judgment fell on unrepentant mankind and He took out a whole world of sinners.
Of course, every one is a sinner, but Noah and his family had repented and believed God when He spoke of a coming judgment. They got ready when they could and walked into God's tool for salvation – the Ark.
God gives warning today that there is a coming judgment – another one. This one won't be by water – but by fire: "Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men" (II Peter 3:6,7).
Just two verses after this, we see that God is "not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." He has provided a way to escape the wrath to come.
The tool that will save the soul is believing on the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the only One Who died to take away our sins. He was buried, and then He rose again to prove that He was Who He said He was.
Have you called on God to forgive and save you – to save you from the coming wrath of God? He graciously waits today to save all who will turn from sin and ask Christ to save them. Why not do it today?
