Christ Our Ark Of Safety

This sermon, titled "Christ, Our Ark of Safety," is preached from Genesis chapter 6. The speaker explains that before the flood, fallen angels descended, took wives from the daughters of men, and produced a hybrid race of giants. Their purpose was to corrupt the pure Adamic bloodline so that the promised seed, who would crush the serpent's head, could not be born. These giants introduced cannibalism, murder, sorcery, and sexual perversion, even defiling animals, which is why God decreed destruction on all flesh. The speaker clarifies that the 120 years in Genesis 6:3 was not a lifespan limit but the period of grace before judgment, and notes that Psalm 90:10 describes Israel's wilderness experience, not a universal cap on human life. He stresses that God always prepares His people before crisis, as He did with Noah, and that believers who spend time in the Word will be the head and not the tail. The ark is presented as a type of Christ. Made of water-resistant gopher wood and pitched within and without, it pictures atonement and the believer's security in Christ. The ark rested on Ararat on the seventeenth day of the seventh month, the same day Jesus rose from the dead. Because believers are in Christ, no judgment can penetrate the ark. The rainbow covenant shows God's bow hung up in peace, and Ararat, meaning "the curse is reversed," signifies that we now stand on resurrection ground with no condemnation.

And we believe that the power of God is present to do mighty things. Under the administration of your word, the sick are healed. There is joy for the depressed. There is peace for the worried one. Transformation in families, in lives. Bondages are broken. There is total deliverance. There is liberty. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. There is liberty here. We leave this place not with our burdens. Our burdens are rolled away. Every reproach, ignominy, and shame, they are all rolled away. And your glory is vast, revealed, and unveiled to the praise of God's glory. Thank you. Thank you, wonderful Savior. Thank you, mighty one. Thank you, Lord, for your majesty. We bless you. We praise you. We honor you. In Jesus' name, the Son of the living God. Amen. Hallelujah. Turn with me to the book of Genesis. Chapter 6. I read from this one. Genesis chapter 6. And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were fair, and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is a man. He also is flesh. Yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. And there were giants in the earth in those days. And also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bade children unto them, and they became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. And God saw the wickedness of man, that the wickedness of man was bad, that the wickedness of man was great in the earth. And every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created on the face of the earth, both man and beast, and the creeping things, and the fowls of the air. And it repented me that I have made them. But no one found grace in the eyes of the Lord. Verse 17. And behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life from under heaven, and everything that is in the earth shall die. Hallelujah. And verse 3 says, And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh, yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years. I'm speaking on the subject, Christ, our ark of safety. Christ, our ark of safety. Praise God. Jesus Christ is our ark of safety. And from the text we've read, the Bible tells us that there was a time on the earth that there was so much corruption on the earth. The wickedness of men was so great. The reason was because the fallen angel angels came down here and the Bible says they took women and they produced a hybrid race of giants. A hybrid race of giants. The book of Jude captures it, telling, speaking of the angels that kept not their first estate but left their own habitation. So the sons of God who were angels, fallen angels, came down and the Bible says they took women and they produced a hybrid of giants race. And it's so amazing that according to early church history and the fathers in early church history and also even secular history, there was a lot of history. We are told that these giants were wild and these giants contributed to the corruption that is on the earth. Actually, the giants introduced cannibalism, murder, sorcery on the earth. You see, it was a giant race and they were very huge. Those original giants were very huge. After the flood, they were also giants but they were smaller than the previous giants. Okay, so ancient writings tell us that they were very high. Those giants were taller than these buildings. Wow. Yeah. And they brought so much corruption on the earth. Now the reason Satan intended to do that was to destroy the pure Adamic stock. You understand that the first prophecy in the Bible was prophesied in the sight of Satan. God says the seed of the woman will crush or bruise the head of the serpent. So Satan knew that there is a seed that was coming. Someone was going to be born who will crush his head. So they brought in all these angels to destroy by genetic engineering the pure human stock so that that seed cannot be born. Praise God. Hallelujah. Yeah, that seed cannot be born. Yeah. Later we read, the Bible says that when Jesus died, he went to the spirit in prison, which was sometimes disobedient. When once in the days of Noah, he went to show himself to them. He said, look, look at me. He couldn't prevail. He wanted to destroy my coming, but it wasn't possible. So there was a giant race. And in fact, ancient history will tell us that these giants destroyed the human race so much that they ate the human race. They ate the human race. They ate the human, human food, vegetable produce. They ate everything and they started eating human beings and animals. They even sexually abused animals. God says he was going to destroy not only men, but the beast. Even the animal race was defiled actually. When you read ancient mythology, some of those wild images of beasts, they actually were there because they were also hybrid. Because some of these giants sexually, you know, they abused these animals sexually and produced strange animal, uh huh. It's strange. So God actually said that he was going to destroy the earth. He's going to destroy the earth. So he says, my spirit will no longer strive with men because he also is flesh. Praise God. It's amazing that the condition before the flood was totally different from the condition after the flood. That was one of the reasons why before the flood they were, they were aging. They lived to 800, 900, but after the flood, it's totally different. A lot of factors contributed to it. A lot of factors, but I don't want to go so much into it. Before the flood, there was only one temperature on earth. But after the flood, there are four seasons. After the flood, God actually tilted the earth. The earth was straight this way, but it was tilted. That's why we have 35 days. He tilted the earth and the waters on the earth was what is, has been congealed as a North Pole and a South Pole. Today if you were to melt the North Pole and the South Pole, the flood will come back on earth. But God has a covenant with the earth that the flood will no longer come on the earth. So there were so many things at that time. Hallelujah. God said that he was going to destroy the universe. He said that concerning man that yet his days shall be 120 years. His days shall be 120 years. When we read this verse, we have the idea that man is supposed to live for 120 years. years but that is not a meaning of the best in the Hebrew that's what I mean he's not saying man is supposed to be man is going to live 120 years if you check it they didn't live 120 years that generation they crossed 120 and there the Hebrew actually says that what it means is that God was given man 120 years before the judgment comes God gave man that his days the days of man left before the flood before the destruction was 120 years so what he said his days shall be 120 years the days left on earth before the flood or the judgment comes it's going to be 120 years so man had 120 years to repent before the destruction that is why the ark was built within that time about hundred years God built the ark took a long time very long time yes for God to build the ark that's why the ark was built within that time about hundred years God built the ark it took a long time very long time yes for God to build the ark so and how long are you so and how long are you so and how long are you supposed to live on earth God didn't say 120 supposed to live on earth God didn't say 120 supposed to live on earth God didn't say 120 that's not a real meaning and I know that's not a real meaning and I know that's not a real meaning and I know you are thinking how about 70 or 80 you are thinking how about 70 or 80 you are thinking how about 70 or 80 because some 90 verse 10 says that the because some 90 verse 10 says that the because some 90 verse 10 says that the days of our years are 3 score and 10 a days of our years are 3 score and 10 a days of our years are 3 score and 10 a score is 3.10 is 70 years a score is 20 score is 3.10 is 70 years a score is 20 score is 3.10 is 70 years a score is 20 the days of our years are 70 years but the days of our years are 70 years but the days of our years are 70 years but if by reason of strength the 80 years yet if by reason of strength the 80 years yet if by reason of strength the 80 years yet is their strength labor and soul we are is their strength labor and soul we are is their strength labor and soul we are soon cut off and we fly away some 90 soon cut off and we fly away some 90 soon cut off and we fly away some 90 the sum of Moses Moses is not saying that the sum of Moses Moses is not saying that the sum of Moses Moses is not saying that we are supposed to be to 70 Moses is we are supposed to be to 70 Moses is we are supposed to be to 70 Moses is given a description of the ascension and given a description of the ascension and given a description of the ascension and pilgrimage in the wilderness in the pilgrimage in the wilderness in the pilgrimage in the wilderness in the wilderness they actually lead to 70 and wilderness they actually lead to 70 and wilderness they actually lead to 70 and some lead to 80 but he says at that time some lead to 80 but he says at that time some lead to 80 but he says at that time they were they were undergoes wrath so they were they were undergoes wrath so they were they were undergoes wrath so some 19 verse 10 in verse 11 says who some 19 verse 10 in verse 11 says who some 19 verse 10 in verse 11
Speaker 2says who knoweth the power
Speaker 1of your anger for us knoweth the power of your anger for us knoweth the power of your anger for us is that fear so is that wrath so he was is that fear so is that wrath so he was is that fear so is that wrath so he was saying that because the bounce is the saying that because the bounce is the saying that because the bounce is the lower cat rock they were and the ghost lower cat rock they were and the ghost lower cat rock they were and the ghost anger so they didn't have to 70 but anger so they didn't have to 70 but anger so they didn't have to 70 but today we are
Speaker 3not on the cross
Speaker 1in fact today we are not on the cross in fact today we are not on the cross in fact in the Bible there's no age limit for in the Bible there's no age limit for in the
Speaker 3Bible
Speaker 1there's no age limit for anyone there's no age limit someone said anyone there's no age limit someone said anyone there's no age limit someone said to smith woodless with he was talking to smith woodless with he was talking to smith woodless with he was talking about how he's going to go very old and about how he's going to go very old and about how he's going to go very old and all of that he's going to go beyond 80 all of that he's going to go beyond 80 all of that he's going to go beyond 80 and all of that then someone asked him and all of that then someone asked him and all of that then someone asked him what is your legal ground what is the what is your legal ground what is the what is your legal ground what is the proof what is your claim what is your proof what is your claim what is your proof what is your claim what is your authority to claim long life because the authority to claim long life because the authority to claim long life because the bible says that we'll leave up to 70 bible says that we'll leave up to 70 bible says that we'll leave up to 70 in some 90. in some 90. in some 90. as smith woodless replied and said you as smith woodless replied and said you as smith woodless replied and said you know his reply he said know his reply he said know his reply he said i don't live in some 90. i live in some i don't live in some 90. i live in some 91. 91. 91. with long life let's satisfy him with long life let's satisfy him with long life let's satisfy him and show him my yeshua that is verse 16. and show him my yeshua that is verse 16. with long life will i satisfy him who is going to be satisfied not god but you so if god wants to take you at 80 and you say i'm not satisfied you know what it means to eat and not be satisfied that means you want more you want more so if god says 80 you go like i'm not satisfied i want to be a centenarian that's right i want to be a centenarian i want to be my handbrake so life is fulfilling god's purpose on earth after that what do you want to do on it there's a better place yeah far more than here so when you fulfill your purpose and you're okay you bless your children you leave good inheritance for them you see it by your heart then and you go and sleep like you sleep that's how it's supposed to be hallelujah yeah it's a dignified one now when god told noah that he was going to bring a flood actually rain on the earth and it's have been difficult for the people to believe it because previously to that there was no record of rain on earth the first biblical record of rain was the rain that brought destruction in the flood the rain that brought destruction so there have never been rain there was no there's no record of any rain so i'm wondering how they were going to take it and i know you might be asking so how about the plants how are they watered in genesis 2 verse six before there was rain the bible says there went out a mist from the earth and watered the face of the ground of the earth so watering was done by god in himself there was a mist that went out of the earth the mist is like a more of like a fog kind of fog that came out of the earth and like a deal it's watered the earth that is what is called a subterranean waters the subterranean waters are the waters beneath the earth praise god please bring your eyes here the waters beneath the earth and those waters are very powerful some scientists have said some years ago that those waters like if you keep fish in those waters they grow about eight times their size wow yeah so if these waters were used to water the earth the earth would grow so much bigger and that's why i'm sure that the plants will grow bigger than we see them today yeah i believe it because no wonder in the millennium when jesus comes in psalm 72 verse 16 the bible says people will grow corn no corn but the size of the corn will be like the cedars of lebanon in those days there shall be a handful of corn upon the top of the mountains and the leader of shashik like the cedars of lebanon so can you see planting the corn and it's it's it's going to be corn and it's as huge as a cedar that's how it shall be when jesus comes on the earth so i i don't know so it could be that the vegetation in those days was greater and better than after the flood praise god so it could have been difficult for them to conceive the concept of rain because the earth was amazing so amazing do you know that there was a canopy that covered the earth like a blanket of paper there was a canopy that was up on the earth the bible calls that the word rakia firmament but it's the word canopy on the earth and the earth was like a global greenhouse wow so we're sheltered from the direct ultraviolet rays very wonderful place but it was broken down by the flood of noah the rain that came down but in as i said before we see that's that's a canopy coming back in the millennium that will cover hallelujah so much happened at that time so god said there was going to be rain there's going to be flood and the flood was amazing the waters came from above came from above and it also came from beneath it exposed gases from the media to come to the earth wow one of the causes of man not living so long like the previous generation the pre-flat you know antediluvian generation hallelujah hallelujah so god was actually going to bring a flood on the earth but one thing i've known of god is that god always prepares his people before the crisis god he always will prepare his people before the crisis if there's going to be crisis let's say there's going to be a kind of personal crisis in your life god will prepare you before the crisis let's say that you're going to face a kind of health health challenge god will prepare you for the crisis i'm going to face financial crisis god will prepare you for the crisis there's going to be a strain of virus that is going to hit your country god press you for the crisis every kind of crisis that is to come your way god prepares his people for the crisis except you're not sensitive to him because god always wants you to be the head and not the tail to be the head means that now to be the tail means that the crisis will catch you by surprise and you are always behind but to be the head and not the tail means that you are always advanced that crisis will not catch you by surprise you are always ahead of the crisis and prepared in advance before the crisis come and when they come they don't subdue you you prevail over the crisis how does god prepare his living for the crisis to his word he feeds you before that temptation comes and before the temptation will hit you god has previously prepared you that's what happens that what god does is that he will bring your attention to the word or he'll cause you to hear a message when you wait god will be drawing your attention spend time in the word spend time in the word spend time in the way because god wants you to show you something in the word and if you allow the lord god will bring a certain verse you know to to feed your hearts that's what you you win by feeding on the word so if god but his spirit is tearing you up for the moment to spend time with him time in the world and you keep ignoring it you keep ignoring keep knowing that when the crisis hits you, they're going to be the tail and not the head because the crisis will take you by surprise and you are defeated in the crisis and you are carried along by the crisis. But if you are sensitive to the dealings of God and the moves of God, what happens is that the Lord will now call your attention to spend time in the Word. And before you realize, you stumble on a verse or a book or a message or something that will prepare you towards the crisis that is coming. And if you are willing and obedient, what happens is that He increases that capacity of yours and your authority so much that sometimes the crisis doesn't even show up at all. And sometimes if it shows up, you're already prepared and it doesn't touch you. Like Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego in a fire, the fire never touched them. So it comes but it doesn't. You are delivered from the trouble. Praise God. God will always prepare His people before the crisis. So there was a crisis coming upon the earth. God didn't just sit down for the crisis to overtake His people. He prepared them adequately before the crisis. So you don't have to be afraid in life of whatever might come. God will prepare you before that crisis comes. That is why the greatest thing on earth is to spend time with the Lord in intimacy in His Word. And I'm telling you that you are going to escape all the hurdles and the pitfalls and the potholes in life.
Speaker 2Yeah. Hallelujah. It happens.
Speaker 1Temptations come. They come your way but He always prepares you ahead of the temptation. Yeah. But if you keep ignoring Him, keep ignoring Him, the time you have to spend in the wedding with Him, that is actually for our undoing. Hallelujah. Praise God. God is good to us. Hallelujah. So God told Noah to make an ark. Now let's go to verse 13. Genesis chapter 6. It goes on to Noah. Verse 14. Make thee an ark of gopher wood. You will not sit down in the ark and thou shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. So God told Noah to make an ark like a ship. Not with a ship. Not with steel, but with wood. Praise God. Hallelujah. Now this ark is a picture of Jesus Christ. The ark of Noah is one of the earliest types of our Lord Jesus Christ. When I say type, it's a representation, it's a shadow, it's a picture of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Peter. Chapter 3. We read from verse 19. By which also, that's Jesus, He went and preached unto the spirit in prison. When Jesus died, He went and preached unto the spirit in prison, which were sometime disobedient. When once the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a-preparing, wherein few, that is to say, eight souls, were saved by water. It's amazing. It's amazing. So, Jesus died, He went to Hades, He went to the compartments of the spirit beings. There were some spirits in prison. Those spirits, He says, they were present in the days of Noah. Those spirits of the giants and all of that. And He went to preach to them. Not for them to be saved. No. No. They went to make an announcement. It's not "Evangelizu", it's "Kerisu", "Kerijma", to make an announcement. And praise God. Hallelujah. Even the dead cannot be saved. The spirit cannot preach to us, for the spirit to be saved. And that's not what it means. And the Bible says that, wherein eight were saved by water, 21, the like figure, see, see, the ark is the like figure, whereunto even baptism, doth also now save us. Not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Verse 21 says the like figure. Now, verse 20 says, the ark was prepared and eight, no eight people were in the ark. Noah and his family, they were all eight. Those eight, the Bible says, they were saved by water in the ark. Okay. And the Bible says that, they ate in the ark of Noah. 21 says the like figure. It's a like figure of our heart. It's a like figure of our present day baptism. The word like figure is the Greek word antipon. Now, antipon is the word antitype. So it is the antitype. When we say antitype, what is an antitype? This is what antitype means. When I travel and my wife is not with me, sometimes when I miss my wife, I'll take my wife's picture. Okay. And I'll see how much I've missed her. Sometimes I can even kiss the picture. I just kiss the picture. But think of it, I come home and I'm with my wife and I've missed my wife. And I take the picture and she's there and I'm kissing the picture. What does it mean? The real substance is there. Kiss the person who I'm kissing the picture. You see. So the picture is a type. It represents her. But she in my presence is a substance. Christ is the substance, but some believers are still holding on to it. Some believers are still holding on to the type. Christ has come, but they are still holding on to the substance. It doesn't make any meaning. So now, the Bible says that the ark is just a photo album of Christ. But the very substance is Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! Yeah. So the type is a shadow. The antitype is a real substance. So the ark pointed to Jesus. So what it means is that there were eight people in the ark. The ark underwent judgment. But all the judgment came upon the ark. Those inside didn't feel the judgment. They were safe in the ark. So the Bible says it's a type of our baptism. Now what is baptism? Baptism consists of three things. Baptism is by immersion. I'm not talking about aspersion or sprinkling. Biblical baptism is immersion. Immersion is three things. Death, burial, and resurrection. They put you in water. It means you are dead, you are buried, and you are resurrected with Christ. That's baptism. Praise God. So the Bible says that the ark is the antitype. The real substance of what happened of our baptism. So when Noah and his family were in the ark, they underwent through baptism. That means that the ark might have gone through the waters and come out. Which represents a death burial process. And coming out on that mountain of Ararat is a kind of resurrection. So that is our reality and the experience in Christ. Today to be in Christ is to be in the ark. Hallelujah. Praise God. Hallelujah. And to be in the ark means that it's a symbol of our baptism. Therefore we are buried with Christ by baptism unto death. Like as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we should also be in the resurrection. So we died with Christ, we are buried with Christ, and we are raised with Christ. And have raised us up together. And made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ. Is that not so? Why? We didn't experience the death. We were in Christ. We died. We're in him. So whatever he experienced is put into our account. Are you here with me? Yes sir. So like the ark underwent through the waters, today we are. To be in Christ is to be in the ark. So if we're in Christ Jesus, today you are in the ark. Hallelujah. I'm in the ark. And what he went through, the burial and the resurrection, we have gone through. Hallelujah. Because we're in him. Hallelujah. Everything was a type. For instance, in Genesis 8 verse 4 the Bible tells us that the ark, let me read it so you can get it. Genesis 8 verse 4 says, "And the ark rested on the seventh month, on the seventeenth day, upon the mountains of Ararat." The ark rested on the what? The seventh month on the seventeenth day. Surprisingly, exactly four thousand years after the date was the day Jesus resurrected. Hallelujah. Now Jesus resurrected on the same day the ark rested. The seventeenth day of the seventh month. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Understand this. The seventeenth day of the what? The seventh month. The Passover happened on the fourteenth day. The seventh month. But something happened. The day they came out of Egypt, God told Moses that this day shall be to you the beginning of month. When they passed over, God gave them a new calendar. It's called the spiritual calendar. So there was a civil calendar that was used until the day they came out of Egypt, in Exodus 12. It says this day shall be to you the beginning of month. So when God says this day shall be to you the beginning of month, it was the seventh month. So the seventh month of the civil calendar became the day that they came out of Egypt. The seventh month of the civil calendar became the day that they came out of Egypt. So this day shall be to you the beginning of month. and that was the day Christ died and if it was the 14th of Nisan which is the first month of the spiritual calendar he died and he was resurrected after 3 days so 14, 15, 16, 17 3 days Jesus rose from the dead the same day the ark rested hallelujah so it's a perfect picture of the ark going through death burial and resurrection that is Jesus so we died in him, we were buried in him and when he was raised, we were raised hallelujah so I just wanted to see the fact that we are in the ark
Speaker 2there is an ark you are in I'm in the ark
Speaker 1that was elevated above the flood
Speaker 4now when the ark was done
Speaker 1the first thing God told Noah when the ark was done God said come now into the ark that's very amazing come into the ark God didn't say go into the ark he said come now if God says come that means he is there so God was the first to enter the ark he said come he said come so come is a gracious invitation hallelujah wow if God said go then he's telling you to depart you understand depart but he says come that means he's the first to be in now when the rain was ceased God told Noah go from the ark so God was the first to enter he was the last to leave in the ark hallelujah God is always with his people so he says come and I'm telling you that the word come is used 684 times in the old testament you know 684 times this is the law of first mention you see other words like it came to pass it shall come to pass now it is a different usage from the word come which is imperative you come to something so in that sense this word is a first mention in the bible come so amazing that the first time God says come it's an invitation to Christ hallelujah hallelujah that's why he says come unto me all you that lay by and I have you laid in me and I'll give you rest he's still inviting many to come into the ark come the last mention of the word come is in the book of revelation 2nd verse 17 the spirit and the bride say come and let him see come he's always telling us to come hallelujah come come come come come come come God is amazing
Speaker 2Praise God Hallelujah So he says that
Speaker 1In verse Verse 13 Of Genesis 6 And God said to Noah Verse 14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood The Bible mentions three kinds of arks This is the first one There's an ark of Noah There's an ark of Balrash Maybe Moses was put into an ark of Balrash And there's an ark of the covenant There are three types of arks But the Hebrew Gives us different words The ark of Noah and the ark of Balrash Are the same word But the ark of the covenant is a different word The ark of the covenant Actually the word is not even ark The word is actually coffin So in Hebrew the coffin of the covenant It speaks of Jesus' death So if you have the ark of the covenant And you open it up It gives you the shape of the cross How he died for us Hallelujah That's why the blood was sprinkled on the mercy seat To make atonement for us But this one is a different kind of ark He says that Make an ark of gopher wood I want us to see the materials by which the ark was made So you can appreciate Who the Lord Jesus is Hallelujah And know that you are safe and secured In life In his salvation Hallelujah Hallelujah Make an ark of gopher wood Now what is gopher wood? See the word gopher Gopher wood Gopher wood is called cypress It's called cypress Cypress wood Cypress The word cypress is sometimes used in King James As the word fair F-I-R Fair Now the cypress wood Is a resinous wood It is full of resin When I say it is full of resin What it means is that It is It can withstand the attack of water So the resinous wood Can be in water for a long time And it resists the attack of water Because it is full of resin The cypress When you go to Israel It's a symbol of death It is related to death But literally The graveyard in the cemeteries Are all full of the cypress wood The cypress tree The cemeteries are full of cypress wood The cemeteries are full of cypress wood The cemeteries are full of cypress wood His value is beyond all of us. His value is more than all our sins, his worth is more than everything else because he himself is God.
Speaker 2He himself is the very God of the very God. He himself is everything. So in three hours, I wish, on the cross, he bore all our sins together. Hallelujah. That's true righteousness. He is the gopher wood.
Speaker 1That wood stands for humanity. In the Bible, you know that wood is planted. But there is no corruption.
Speaker 2He bore everything.
Speaker 1He bore everything. Today, judgment is not coming on you because it took order. There is no judgment awaiting you. It has been exhausted. It is finished. He said it is finished. You are also saying it is not finished. He says it is finished. The word finished actually means finished. You don't have to come and pay anything. You can't add anything. It is fully paid.
Speaker 2Hallelujah. Glory to you.
Speaker 1Praise God. Hallelujah. And look at what it says. Runes shall thou make the ark, and thou shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. What kind of language is that? Thou shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. Now the word pitch is like a bitumen. So the ark is done and they apply the bitumen. It says within the ark. So all the ark, they apply bitumen. Then outside the ark too, they apply bitumen. The reason for the application of the bitumen or the pitch is to make it watertight. So that not a single drop of water will be able to enter into the ark. It is to make it watertight. But God is amazing. The word pitch is the word zeteth in Hebrew. But it says pitch it within and without. But he didn't use the word zeteth. The word gopher, the word kaphar is the word atonement. So God is amazing. He said make atonement within and make atonement without. So the word pitch is the word for atonement. But it is our covering. So there is an atonement within, there is an atonement without. So to be in the ark is to be in atonement. It is double atonement. So the atonement is our covering. You understand what it means for Christ to be our covering? In the book of Genesis 1 Adam and Eve said, God was the first person to take an animal to kill the animal. And God used the animal as a covering for Adam. Why did God kill that animal? There had to be a bleeding sacrifice. Because the guilty sinner has a place only by a bleeding sacrifice. So when an animal is killed, it is an innocent victim taking your place as a substitute. So the punishment that should come on you is given to an innocent victim. So Christ now dies our death so that we don't have to die any longer. Then apart from that, he himself now becomes our covering. So God clothes Adam and Eve with the skin of the animals. Which speaks of Christ being our righteousness. Christ being our covering. And when you are covered with Christ, when God sees you, it's not you he sees, he sees his son. Because he is your covering. Now we are in the ark. And the ark is covered with the atonement. You know what it means? Christ becomes our covering. If you are in Christ Jesus, Christ is your covering. Hallelujah! God sees you in Christ. God doesn't see you outside yourself. God doesn't see you in your failures. God doesn't see you in your weaknesses. God doesn't see you the way you are seeing yourself. He sees you in Christ for as he is. So are we in this world. God sees us in the glories and the excellencies and the perfections of his hand. Jesus Christ, he sees you in him. For he has beheld no iniquity in Israel. And he has seen no perverseness in Jacob. That was the covenant enacted upon the bird of animals. And he didn't see their perverseness. How much more the blood of Christ. How much more the blood. God sees you in his son. Praise God. So we are in the ark. We are in the ark. In Christ. And the good news is that the pitch. The pitch was applied to make it watertight. Do you understand why sometimes it is watertight? You know our sardines, our camphor are airtight. That means that air cannot enter. Otherwise it will cause the sardines to decay, to rot. So the ark is watertight. Not a single water can come into the ark. What is the water? Judgment. Judgment. If you are in Christ. Not one single judgment can come into the ark. What is in the ark. There is now therefore no condemnation to those who are in Christ, in Jesus. The judgment cannot touch you. Because it is pitch with pitch. Pitch within and pitch without. Atonement within, atonement without. So the judgment waters can never. Some of you are in Christ but you are imagining yourself in the flood waters. That is your imagination. But that is not the reality. To be in the ark, you are in the ark of God's salvation. No judgment if you are in Christ. Judgment cannot. If you are in Christ, you will never suffer eternal judgment. Hallelujah. There is no judgment you can suffer. You will never suffer eternal judgment. Alright. If you doubt, let me read a verse for you. We don't doubt. No, I should stop reading the verse. I read the verse everywhere. We believe what you are saying. Hallelujah. Let's look at what John 5:24 says. It says that. Verily, verily, I say unto you. He that hath heard my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment. It is predicated upon one thing. If you believe in Jesus. It says, you shall not come. What is the call about this verse? Once you have believed in Jesus, you shall not come into judgment. But you are passed from death to life. So judgment is behind us. Hallelujah. Because there is a substitute who bore our judgment. For God to put that judgment on us, God has to apologize to his son Jesus. Because he was our substitute. What he took, he was not taking for himself. It was for you. So everything he did is credited into your account as though you did it. Hallelujah. So God has a strength to that. Because you are. He was in your place. The Bible says you shall not come into judgment. Predicated upon one thing. Believe. Hallelujah. God didn't say, if you do right. If you live right, you will not come to judgment. No. It's not about living right. Living right is very important because it glorifies the Lord. We need to live right. But that does not qualify us to be in the ark. What qualifies us to be in the ark is to believe. That whosoever believeth in him. Whosoever believeth is just predicated on belief shall not perish. Whosoever believeth in him will come to Christ by believing. All our living well honors him and we shall be rewarded for living well. And those who don't live well and don't live right will forfeit the eternal reward. But rewards are different from salvation. They will forfeit all the crowns and the rewards. It's like you travel and they ask you, what did you come home with? All these years you travel, what did you come? You say, I'm sorry I came with myself. That is a disappointment. No. No. Our living right glorifies him. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. And some give inroads to Satan in their lives. But our salvation is predicated on Jesus. Hallelujah. And God is satisfied. Hallelujah. That he must be just and the justifier of him that liveth in Jesus. If you understand that. For the showing of his righteousness. If you believe in Jesus, God cannot condemn you. God himself is not righteous. That is the first argument in Romans chapter 3. But he himself must be just in justifying you. If you believe in Jesus and he does not justify you.
Speaker 2God himself has a problem.
Speaker 1That is a scriptural foundation in our given. So right now.
Speaker 2Where are you?
Speaker 1Look. In the ark. What do you say about pitch within? Watertight. Not one single water of that one can penetrate the ark. You see what God did? The like figure. The antipode. We are in the like figure. We are in Christ. If you doubt again. Read in the amplified version of the AMPC. John chapter 10. Let us read verse 28. The amplified version will get it right for us. John 10:28. Okay. Let me read it so that it will come in the recording. John 10:28. I read from amplified AMPC. And I give them eternal life. And they shall never lose it. Now listen. Or perish throughout the ages. To all eternity. They shall never by any means be destroyed. And no one is able to snatch them out of my hand. Now let me read it again. To all eternity. enemies will be destroyed. And no one is able to snatch them out of my house.
Speaker 2How can you argue with this? Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
Speaker 1Hallelujah. Because people cannot get the Greek, they don't really understand. Okay, let me read. I don't know what MPC will say, but I want to take it from the Greek. John 4 verse 14. Let's also see what they will say. John 4 verse 14. He says that, and whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him, shall never taste. But the water that I shall give him, shall be in him a well of water, stricken up to everlasting life. But Jesus says, shall never taste. See, the English says, never taste. In English, there's this one word. But in the Greek, um. The Greek says, ume ais aion. Ume ais aion. The Greek says, shall never, never. Not by any means. Not in any way. Even unto the years of the glorious eternities. That is the word. Aion is the word for the never-ending eternities. So, he is saying, it's ume ais aion. But the English said, never. Ume is the strongest, negation in the Greek. It's like, never, never. Not in any way, by no means. Even unto the ages of the glorious eternities, or the ages, the eternities to come. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Let's skip the Amplified. I think the Greek is okay. Hallelujah. Praise God. So, the ark is pitched. Within, without a pitch. Ah, watertight. It is watertight.
Speaker 2Resistant. Water resistant.
Speaker 1Water resistant. So, no judgment. It's watertight. No judgment can harm it. So, there is no judgment. There's no judgment. The Bible says that, there is now therefore no. Now, King James says condemnation, but it's the word judgment. Check other versions. See, there is now therefore no judgment against those who are in Christ Jesus. And the Greek says, there is now therefore, who this? Who this? You know what who this is? Who this is? Who this is? Absolute unqualified negative. Now, who this is, means not even one bit. Not even one bit. Not one. Who is not in Christ is one. Not even one, or not even one bit. So, there is now therefore not even one bit of judgment against those who are in Christ Jesus. So, there is now therefore not even one bit of judgment so it's so watertight that in the ark no water can see through the ark to those who are in the ark the like figure who are unto baptism also doth now save us we are in Christ the antithepon the antithype no judgment can see through the ark to us praise the Lord there is now therefore no no cataclysm against those there was judgment day or condemnation day there was cataclysm there is now therefore not even one bit of judgment against those who are in Christ Jesus and now let me open up the judgment it's not just talking about our eternal salvation but also judgment on earth praise God there are different words for judgment and condemnation you have the word crema cataclysis cataclyma cataclyma is from two words cata and crema this is it if you go to the court and you are found guilty and you are condemned and the judge says guilty what follows after the guilt what follows after the sentence is passed upon you you have to say the sentence is that not so yes sir ok so the sentence being passed upon you is a crema it's called crema but the word is not just crema it's cata crema there is cata added to the crema the cata is not just the sentence passed upon you by the judge that's guilty but when the cata is added you are sent to prison to serve the life sentence with hard labor so the servitude and the sentence when you are serving it is the word cata crema and that's the word condemnation in Romans 8 verse 1 there is now therefore no cata crema what it means is that when Adam committed high treason and sinned what came upon Adam was not just a crema the sentence of guilt but a cata crema came upon him so Adam now has to serve the divine sentence by the judge that came on the earth the curse of sicknesses of weaknesses you know of death of poverty of lack of sicknesses of diseases of depressions and of all the heartaches and the chaos that is upon the earth all of it is called the cata crema man is put into a certain prison to serve a life sentence sicknesses diseases cancer tuberculosis all sicknesses all lack all poverty all depression all fears from the beginning it was not so all these things were not in Eden they are the result of the sentence that came as a result of man's fall a man is guilty and a sentence has been passed upon man praise God now in Christ because we are his righteousness we are no longer guilty to be justified means not guilty if not guilty I don't have to serve any sentence understand if it is not guilty I don't have to serve any sentence but if the judge or the judge the cuter wrongly comes to bring the sentence upon me and I can I can embrace it ignorantly if I know my right now look I'm not guilty because this kind of judgment is for those who are guilty but now I am justified I am the righteousness of God in Christ so to know you are justified means the sentence does not be guilty so whenever you declare you are his righteousness you are saying minus me the judgment does not deserve me because I am not guilty and if I'm not guilty I don't deserve to serve any kind of sentence praise God hallelujah now in 1 Corinthians 11 Apostle Paul was talking about the communion and people who don't take the communion with understanding that this is Jesus' body broken for my healing and his blood cleansed my sins so I take the communion not with guilt that I've sinned I've sinned I've sinned to say I've sinned I've sinned I've sinned is to take the communion unwittingly yeah to know his blood forgive me it's a sign his blood his body is broken for my body my body doesn't have to be broken so you design these things and Apostle Paul continues arguing now 1 Corinthians 11 from verse 2 then he says that for this cause many are weak for this reason many are weak many are sick and many have fallen asleep that means they die prematurely in the church he's talking giving the reasons why people die prematurely in the church he says many are weak in the church many are weak many are sick in the church many fall asleep that means they die and go to heaven eight years before their time that's why he used the word sleep many have died prematurely not designing the Lord's body then he says when we are chastened we are judged of the Lord that we should not be condemned with the world the word condemned with the world is the same word it's from the word katakryma katakrysis it's the sentence that's the word condemned with the world you can be in the ark and be condemned with the world you know what it means to be condemned with the world you know what it means the word is always sick those people in the world they are always sick they are always broke they are always weak they are always depressed that is the condemnation of the world when it says condemned with the world it has nothing to do with going to hell no it's not going to hell that is taking something out of context in context to be condemned with the world in a context is to be weak to be sick and to die before your time the sentence that Adam brought on the human race you are allowing the sentence to consume you you are always depressed in life you are never happy you have lost your peace you are always weak you are always sick you are always broke you are like the world that means though you are in Christ you are not working in light you are not working in revelation you are not working with insight that is not supposed to be your life because what Jesus has done there should be no cataclysm there should be no sentence on our head hallelujah you go to heaven and the books will be opened and you realize that you could have lived a very nice life enjoying your marriage enjoying your life enjoying peace enjoying joy enjoying love enjoying prosperity fulfilling your purpose on earth working with Jesus in harmony blessing life peace peace it doesn't mean there is no trouble but when trouble comes the trouble is nothing hallelujah but you see the cataclysm many believers are condemned of the world that is the condemnation that is in the world is affecting them because they don't know what they have in Christ they don't know what they have in Christ hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah that's why I say you're strong hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah that's why when sickness is coming you should say it is not mine yeah if you feel the symptoms on your body you are becoming weak use the word know who you are know what you have and flush it out even if the symptoms are persistent let your faith persist them all and hold on to the word the presence of symptoms doesn't mean you are defeated you have to fight the good fight of faith not live by your feelings but live by the word praise God hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah how to lead a victorious Christian life. This is how to lead a victorious Christian life. But you should know that there is no judgment on you. It's not because of what you've done or not done. It's because of what Jesus did. The devil will try to point you to you and point him to Christ. Because Christ is your representation. Your mistake and your problem is that you're always looking at yourself. You are looking to yourself. That's why you are depressed. What you have done and what you have not done. If you look to yourself, Satan will always whip you. Even when you are doing your best, there is something you have still not done. Satan will always whip you when you keep looking to yourself. We are not called to look to ourselves. We are called to look to him. Because he is our representation. He is your identity before God. Adam was your identity in the flesh. So whatever happened to Adam happened to you. How did you become a sinner? Not what you did. It's what Adam did. How did you become righteous? Not what Jesus did. Either you belong to the first Adam or the last Adam. But we belong to the order of the last Adam. And what has happened to him has happened to us. So his victory is my victory. When Adam died, I lied. I died. Whatever happened to Adam happened to me. When he was condemned, I was condemned. When he was rejected, I was rejected. Now, Christ has accepted I am a son. To the praise of the glory of his grace. Wherein he has made us accepted in the beloved. We are accepted not in what we are doing right or wrong. We are accepted because he is accepted. Our acceptance is in him. Christ is. Christ is my sovereignty. Christ is my identity. Praise God. Hallelujah. The ark is watertight. Hallelujah. Oh. My brother, my sister. You are in the ark.

Speaker 1Find the flood of lack and puberty in your life. from ourselves what does it mean the first John 1 verse 7 if you walk in the light as he is in the light he's talking about where we are to walk in the light is to live in Christ so some people think that when the Bible says if you walk in the light as he is in the light that means we are walking exactly like Christ that's not the idea of the verse we have to walk like Christ but that's not the idea of the verse the verse is that if you walk in the light as he is in the light people think that means that we are walking to that perfection if it's total perfection then how about the next verse the blood of Jesus Christ his son cleanses us from awesome the father the blood is cleansing us and saying that there is sin in our lives who's next there is a presence of sin in our lives a believer doesn't deliberately go sinning and wonder if you are truly born again but we are not removed from the presence of sin when we receive our glorified bodies we are removed from the presence of sin but somewhere somehow we miss it here and there but that doesn't mean anything and when you miss it here and there that doesn't mean anything and when you miss it here and there you are still in the light so if you are you are still in the light so if you are you are still in the light so if you are in the light the Bible says the blood of in the light the Bible says the blood of in the light the Bible says the blood of Jesus Christ his son cleanses you to be Jesus Christ his son cleanses you to be Jesus Christ his son cleanses you to be in the light is to be in Christ and when in the light is to be in Christ and when in the light is to be in Christ and when you are in Christ the blood of Jesus you are in Christ the blood of Jesus you are in Christ the blood of Jesus Christ his son cleanses you cleanse Christ his son cleanses you cleanse Christ his son cleanses you cleanse cleanse cleanse cleanse is a present cleanse cleanse cleanse is a present cleanse cleanse cleanse is a present continuous tense in the passive voice in continuous tense in the passive voice in continuous tense in the passive voice in the Greek it was constantly happening the Greek it was constantly happening the Greek it was constantly happening

If you are barren in your finances, it's time to sin. Wherever you are unfruitful, this is sin or barren. Why does it just say sin or barren? Because Isaiah 54 is the continuation of Isaiah 53. What is Isaiah 53? The gospel. It's the story of the cross. Who has believed our report? And who is the arm of the Lord being revealed? For it shall grow up before him as a root. So, it describes Jesus' sufferings, not the gospel. Paul says, Isaiah, and Isaiah, Isaiah said, "Who has believed our report?" He said, "They have not all obeyed our gospel." That's why Isaiah said, "Who has believed our report?" The report is the gospel. "Who has believed our report?" Paul says it's who has believed our gospel. The gospel package is in a miniature form in Isaiah 53. So, it describes Jesus' death and resurrection in verse 12. Then it continues, it says, "Who has believed our report?" The gospel package is in a miniature form in Isaiah 53. So, that means stop considering your pre-decommended present circumstances. Look beyond it and by faith begin to sing. That's the language of the gospel package. That's the action of faith. Begin to sing. Sing. So, Isaiah 54 is the effect of the cross. Everything there is a blessing that came from the cross. So, it says, "In righteousness shall thou be established." All is in Isaiah 54. It's speaking of the benefit of what?
Speaker 5Isaiah 53, which is the cross.
Speaker 1Now, look at verse 9. "For this is as the waters of Noah." Look at verse 9. "For this is as the waters of Noah." Now, look at verse 9. "For this is as the waters of Noah." "For this is as the waters of Noah." Now, look at verse 9. "For this is as the waters of Noah." "For this is as the waters of Noah." "For this is as the waters of Noah." "For this is as the waters of Noah." You know what I mean? there is continue god's oath is behind this word wow remember for him to be angry with you and condemn you means he wasn't satisfied with what jesus did because all that his date is put into your account how shall we escape if we neglect salvation hey

Podcast Summary

Key Points:

  1. The speaker teaches that Genesis 6 describes fallen angels producing a hybrid race of giants in order to corrupt the pure human bloodline and prevent the promised seed, Jesus Christ, from being born.
  2. The 120 years mentioned in Genesis 6
  3. God always prepares His people before a crisis, as seen when He instructed Noah to build the ark roughly a century before the flood came, and believers who stay sensitive to His Word will be prepared in advance.
  4. Noah's ark is a type or shadow of Jesus Christ, and the eight people saved inside it prefigure baptism and salvation through union with Christ.
  5. The ark was made of gopher or cypress wood, which resists water, and was pitched within and without with pitch, a Hebrew word connected to atonement, showing that Christ is our double covering.
  6. The ark rested on the mountains of Ararat on the seventeenth day of the seventh month, which the speaker identifies as the exact day of Jesus' resurrection four thousand years later.
  7. Because believers are in Christ, the antitype of the ark, no judgment or condemnation can touch them, as stated in Romans 8:1 and John 5:24.
  8. The rainbow covenant after the flood shows God hung up His bow of war, pointing to Christ who received the arrow of judgment on our behalf, and the ark landing on Ararat means we now stand on "no more curse" ground.

Summary:

This sermon, titled "Christ, Our Ark of Safety," is preached from Genesis chapter 6. The speaker explains that before the flood, fallen angels descended, took wives from the daughters of men, and produced a hybrid race of giants. Their purpose was to corrupt the pure Adamic bloodline so that the promised seed, who would crush the serpent's head, could not be born. These giants introduced cannibalism, murder, sorcery, and sexual perversion, even defiling animals, which is why God decreed destruction on all flesh.

The speaker clarifies that the 120 years in Genesis 6:3 was not a lifespan limit but the period of grace before judgment, and notes that Psalm 90:10 describes Israel's wilderness experience, not a universal cap on human life. He stresses that God always prepares His people before crisis, as He did with Noah, and that believers who spend time in the Word will be the head and not the tail.

The ark is presented as a type of Christ. Made of water-resistant gopher wood and pitched within and without, it pictures atonement and the believer's security in Christ. The ark rested on Ararat on the seventeenth day of the seventh month, the same day Jesus rose from the dead. Because believers are in Christ, no judgment can penetrate the ark. The rainbow covenant shows God's bow hung up in peace, and Ararat, meaning "the curse is reversed," signifies that we now stand on resurrection ground with no condemnation.

FAQs

The main theme is 'Christ, our ark of safety.' Jesus Christ is presented as the true ark that saves believers from judgment.

God saw that human wickedness was great and every imagination of their hearts was only evil continually. Fallen angels had corrupted the human race, leading to widespread sin and violence.

The ark is a type or picture of Jesus Christ. Just as Noah and his family were saved from judgment inside the ark, believers are saved from eternal judgment by being in Christ.

To be in Christ means to be united with Him in His death, burial, and resurrection. It means His righteousness is credited to you, and you are safe from condemnation.

The Hebrew word for pitch is 'kaphar,' which means atonement. The ark was covered inside and out with pitch, symbolizing that Christ is our double atonement and covering.

Yes, Romans 8:1 declares there is now no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. Believers will not face eternal judgment because Jesus bore it for them.
