So terribly wicked had the hu- j man race become that God decided nothing short of total destruction could keep the small remnant of the faithful and godly from ex tinction. But, in the midst of this evil environment, there was one man who had kept faithful to God, living a righteous and unspotted life. This man was Noah, who, according to the text, “walked! with God.” His walking with God naturally causes us to assume that | God knew him and wanted to pre serve him from the fate which was! soon to befall the rest of the world. Therefore, he “warned” Noah to! 1 1 ed at a reception. . i For traveling the bride wore a wool suit with pink and pat .; ent accessories with a white orchid | corsage. , After a wedding trip to New Or , leans, Louisiana, the couple will : live in Lexington.

Although ridiculed by those who knew him,| he kept at his task and finally completed it. When it was finish-' ed, God again, spoke to him, invit- ■ ing him, his family and all Who! would, to enter into the ark and be saved. It is significant to note that it was not until after the ar* was finished that Noah was told the purpose *it .was to serve. He j had obeyed nipiJAetly—on faith. Our lesson does not*go into the' details of the flood, with which i most of us are familiar and may! be found in Genesis 7:10 to 8:12.1 However. God cared for Noah- and ! hi s family during the flood and! brought the ark safely to rest in I Mount Ararat. When it was possi ble for them to leave the ark, the | first thing Noah did was to build j an altar and offer a burnt sacri-j fice to God. thanking him for his care. This act of Noah’s was oleasing to God. and, as a result, God made a covenant with him that | he would not again curse the earth ] in such a manner. Tn this coven ant, there are six particulars: (l) I There would he no more curse: 12- 1 the order of nature is reestablish- j; ed; (3) the command to multiplyi, is reiterated: (41 man is given su-l nremacy over the animals; (5) j flesh which has blood is not to be ■ised as food: and, (6) the law of i civil government.'
