    Ge.6:13 "The end of all flesh" (1 of 2)

    "And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth."

    Everlasting covenant explains God's covenant with Man. "The holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, refers to the tabernacle of God among men. It is the culmination of all spiritual blessings any man may freely avail of,- and by faith he is a saint redeemed for the earth, and be found in the tabernacle. Without Jesus Christ the Word become flesh and without abiding in him no man shall succeed. Noah is the double for Jesus Christ the author and finisher of our faith. "Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he."(6:22) In the covenant Noah fits the above assertion as he is created 'after our likeness' and he did as his Son fulfilled the will of his Father.

    The Ark of Noah explains the end of all flesh to which it remains an emblem. We shall examine how it serves us for our spiritual instruction. "Wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water."(1 Pe.3:20) The Spirit sets command number Eight to denote the lower parts, signifying the death of his Son enabled those souls in prison to heart the Gospel.(1 Pe.3:19) Water baptism is to signify the end of my flesh and its demands' and if I am dead from where does come Christian nationalism? Do not be fooled. For without this death no man shall enter the day Seven. "And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made."(Ge.2:3) God sanctified Noah because his faith was same as was in his Son. As all passengers in the ark were safe and secure abiding in Noah God was 'at rest' in a manner of speaking.

    "And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits." (6:15)
