** SIN AND THE FLOOD (6:1-9:28)

What were the results of their corruption (3,5,6,7)?  Read verse 2 once again.  What does the Bible point out as the cause of the total corruption of Noah's time?

  

Read verses 8-12.  What kind of person was Noah (8-10)?  How much was the world corrupt (11, 12)? 

What instructions did God give to Noah (14)?  Draw diagrams for the Noah's ark (13-21).  How did Noah obey God's command?

When the ark was completed, what did the Lord say to Noah (7:1-4)?  How did he obey (5)?  Draw a time-line showing the critical paths of the Flood (7:6-8:19).  What was the result of the Flood?  What does this event show about God?

After the Flood what did Noah do (8:20)?  Describe God's covenant with Noah and his descendents (8:21-9:17).  Why did Noah curse Canaan?  How did Noah bless the rest of his sons (9:18-27)?
