What sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness

April of 2011 saw more tornadoes in any 24-hour period in the history of the United States. Well over three hundred (345) people were killed in some 312 tornadoes! The flood of tornadoes swept through seven states. One tornado – the one that hit Joplin, MO – killed about 134 people. We drove through north Alabama in early May and saw some of the destruction.

If you’ve seen the destruction caused by one tornado, imagine that destruction multiplied by 312. Now – imagine that destruction multiplied by 3,000. Or 3,000,000. That is likely the destruction caused by the change in the earth’s environment following the flood of Noah’s day.

“In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened” (Genesis 7:11). Bible-believing meteorologists and climatologists suggest that this change caused world-wide volcanoes, hurricanes – super-hurricanes – and tornadoes.

“He set the earth on its foundations, so that it should never be moved. You covered it with the deep as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains. At your rebuke they fled; at the sound of your thunder they took to flight. The mountains rose, the valleys sank down to the place that you appointed for them” (Psalm 104:5-8).

Here in Kentucky, we have clear evidence of a world-wide flood – Mammoth Cave and Big Bone Lick State Park. The apostle Peter used the flood of Noah to suggest that things have not always been the same. God destroyed the world once; He can and will do it again.

In 2 Peter 3:11-12, he writes:”Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn!”
