The Rainbow Story

Once upon a time, there was a land of confusion and darkness where right seemed wrong, and wrong seemed right. Families turned against one another, and discord was everywhere. Because people loved temporary pleasure more than God, He decided to cleanse the land. His decision was final, but not everything was lost. There was a glimmer of hope. He chose one family to give a second chance to all of humani- ty. They built a boat, and they brought 2 of each animal, 1 male and 1 female, so that when God’s judgment was passed, they could fill the earth once again. Once they were safely inside, it rained for days and days, and all the evil was washed away. After it all dried out, God put a rainbow in the sky as a sign and a promise of His mercy - that He would never flood the earth. Genesis 6-9 This points to the ultimate redemp- tion in Christ. Christ died for our sins, was buried, and raised on the third day. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved! Romans 10:13
