I was reading today's Torah portion. it is Genesis 6:9-11:32 when I received this idea that I would like to try out.

Since my days back in seminary there has been a lot of debate about the judgment of God. many people say that God is too loving to allow anyone to spend the rest of eternity not only separated from Him but also in punishment for their sins and unrighteousness.

In reading the account of Noah we see that God rightly surveys the heart of every single person on the planet and decides to punish them with death. The interesting thing is that Gos decides to save only a few people.

In 2 Pet 2:5 - 10 Peter refers to this event. He says that God will punish.

if God knows how to keep us safe then it must be by- "us"- relying on his strength, to give us all that we must have in order to live up to his standard.

I am tired and need some prayer.
God is always good

peace on your head
