What makes you think you are gonna be on the Ark?

Full Question:

If the last days are 'as the days of Noah', what makes you think you are going to be on the Ark?

Answer:

I don't know in what purpose you asked this question. Anyway, I know and I do believe that this is a serious question and I prefer that every Christian should ask to this question to them selves. You will get the answer of two things, if you ask this question to yourselves. One is that you will get the answer of why you are in this Ark. Secondly, you can evaluate yourself whether you will be on the Ark or not.

In this answer, I am only going to speak in the contest of Noah's ark. First of all, let me give a brief introduction about Noah's ark. Comparing the history of Noah's ark to the coming of Jesus Christ, the great flood of destruction is the end time, Jesus is the Ark and the few eight people, represent the few chosen people in this generation to be in the Ark in the only way to escape from the flood. The three main important reasons for which I do believe that I and every true Christian will be on the Ark is,

1. Believed that there will be a flood: God told Noah that there will be a flood and Noah told many people that a flood is going to come, which will result in huge destruction. Many people did not believe in the words of Noah, and we can see large destruction happened in the life of all those people. They were not familiar with the flood until that time, and they are no ready to believe in flood which they are not familiar.

But here in the time of New Testament, when we heard about the end time, we believe that there will be an end time, even if we're not familiar with it. We tried to understand the consequences of such an end time and searched for a way to escape somehow from this great destruction. We are not ready to repeat the same mistake happened at the time of Noah, by rejecting the fact that will be an end time which we don't know.

2. Choose to be in the Ark: God told Noah that a flood is going to come by following a rain. Noah told the peoples in earth that a flood is going to come by the rain God will bring. It was like an opportunity for the people to choose, whether to be in the ark or to stay on earth without believing that the flood will not come. They are not ready to believe what they have not seen yet.

Very similarly in the New Testament, when we heard about an end time, we believed it will come for sure even if we are not familiar with, like the rain came on the time of Noah. So we choose the ark. At least there are people who choose to believe in Jesus with a mind to escape from the end time, if there is one. Anyway we choose to be in the ark by believing in Jesus Christ.

3. Helping to build the Ark: As Noah’s family which chooses to be in the ark helped Noah. We the people of New Testament which choose the Jesus Christ is also doing our best to build the ark, which is the kingdom of God. For that we are preaching the gospel and the acceptance year of the Lord to all the people in this world giving them a chance and a warning to escape from the flood, which is the end time where there is full of problems and suffering and everlasting hell of fire after that.

God bless you and all the readers to choose the right decision which is the ark by believing and accepting the gospel of Jesus Christ.
