Week of October 11, 2015: Noah and the Ark

Bible Passage: Genesis 6:5–9:17
Main Point: God is holy, and He punishes sin.
Key Passage: 1 Corinthians 8:6
Big Picture Question: What is sin? Sin is breaking God’s law, and sin separates people from God.

One day God looked at all the people on earth and saw that they were choosing to sin. God wanted people to have a relationship with Him, but the people did not want to know God or obey Him. God had to punish the people for their sin.

Noah was a righteous man; he followed God. God warned Noah that a flood was coming to destroy all the creatures on the earth. He told Noah to make an ark to save himself, his family, and some of the animals. God told Noah exactly how to make the ark.

God promised Noah that He would never completely flood the earth again. God told Noah and his family to spread out over the earth and fill it with people. God placed a rainbow in the sky so that every time Noah and his family saw the rainbow, they would know God remembered the promise He made with all the living creatures on earth.
