Perhaps little is more heartbreaking in the Christian’s life than to watch a fellow believer abandon the faith. But in recent years, more and more professed believers seem to be falling away. In this message, we learn the strategies for guarding against apostasy.
Standing Strong in a Secular World
Overcoming a Corrupt World
Text: Genesis 6:5-22

Just as God judged sinful humanity in Noah’s day, so He will judge the sin in our corrupt world.
I. THE WORLD THAT GRIEVED GOD.
1. Their cravings were unrestrained.
2. Their corruption was uncontrolled.
3. Their carelessness is undeniable.
II. THE WALK THAT PLEASES GOD.
1. Noah was saved by faith and God’s grace.
2. Noah was sustained by faith in God’s Word.
III. THE WORK THAT HONORED GOD.
1. He Pounded the Nails.
2. He Preached the Gospel.
Noah teaches us we can live in this world surrounded by corruption and live righteously. Noah also teaches us there is coming a time of judgment upon the earth just like the flood was God’s judgment in Noah’s day.
Aren’t you glad today we still have the opportunity to trust Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and we won’t be here when this world is destroyed by fire?
