WHAT IS IT TO RUIN THE FLESH OF THE EARTH?
.............GENESIS 6:12-13..............
"AND ALAHIM LOOKED UPON THE EARTH AND SAW THAT IT WAS CORRUPT - FOR ALL FLESH HAD CORRUPTED THEIR WAY ON THE EARTH - AND ALAHIM SAID TO NOAK. "THE END OF ALL FLESH HAS COME BEFORE ME, FOR THE EARTH IS FILLED WITH VIOLENCE THROUGH THEM. AND SEE I AM GOING TO DESTROY THEM FROM THE EARTH".
Imagine being Noak with the prospects of entering a new journey to a new existence on a new earth. Before this could happen the violent and corrupt flesh had to be dealt with. What does corrupt mean?:
Result of search for "CORRUPT": 444 'alach aw-lakh' a primitive root; to muddle, i.e. (figuratively and intransitive) to turn (morally) corrupt:--become filthy 2254 chabal khaw-bal' a primitive root; to wind tightly (as a rope), i.e. to bind; specifically, by a pledge; figuratively, to pervert, destroy; also to writhe in pain (especially of parturition):--X at all, band, bring forth, (deal) corrupt(-ly), destroy, offend, lay &Š to (take a) pledge, spoil, travail, X very, withhold. 2610 chaneph khaw-nafe' a primitive root; to soil, especially in a moral sense:--corrupt, defile, X greatly, pollute, profane. 7843 shachath shaw-khath' a primitive root; to decay, i.e. (causatively) ruin (literally or figuratively):--batter, cast off, corrupt(-er, thing), destroy(-er, -uction), lose, mar, perish, spill, spoiler, X utterly, waste(-r).
IN 7843 ABOVE,IT SPEAKS OF RUIN WHICH IS MOST INTERESTING IN THE HEBREW. WHILST THE REST OF THE WORD CORRUPTION SPEAKS OF DESTROYING THE DESIGN OF THE FLESH. THIS IS DONE BY SOILING, MUDDLING, THROUGH PAIN & TRAVAIL, TO ALSO CHANGE THE MORAL COMPOSITION OF THE WORLDS FLESH, TO BECOME FILTHY THROUGH PERVERSION. SO LOOKING AT THIS WORD 'RUIN' WE CAN DISCOVER.

3423 SHOWS US THAT CORRUPTION & VIOLENCE WANT TO OCCUPY ALL FLESH ON THIS EARTH AS IT DID IN THE TIMES OF NOAK JUST LOOK AT
MATT 24:37-39: "And as the days of Noak, so also shall the coming of the Son of Adam be. For as they were in the days before the flood "CORRUPT AND VIOLENT," eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noak entered into the ark, and they did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also shall be the coming of the Son of Adam be".
Matt 24 tells us the signs when His return is near. Mental health is a big problem in society today and doctors do not believe corruption and violence is taking people over. Today we had an ambulance and the police all over our doorstep. Apparently in the phycologist's office upstairs someone threw a fit which took at least an hour to fix up and take them off. Watch your behaviour brothers and don't let violence or corruption reign in your body . . . . they are relentless and we have to say NO!
