from guilt trips when our flesh causes to do little slip ups in small sins. When we repent to Christ of our sins, it means He takes the 'load', making our yoke lighter, so we can get back to doing our Father's work.

 see Romans 7:

 

 Naturally, there are major sins, such as rape, murder, witchcraft, etc., which if committed will bring harsh punishment, even while in the flesh, and thereafter. So I'm not speaking of those in that category of sinners,

 

Rom.1:32:

"Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them

 

 

Gal.5: Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Gal 19-21:

     As it is also written here in Gen.8:21-22; God is not going to cause a flood any more by water to cleanse His earth. The phrase 'While the earth remaineth' shouldn't be taken out of context either, as some do. This doesn't mean this ancient earth is going to be destroyed by a nuclear holocaust or any such doings by man. God will destroy this flesh age off of His earth in the 'twinkling of an eye' on the 'last trump' when Christ returns.

 

 I Cor.15:52: In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

 

How fast is that? Much faster than any global warming event, etc. His earth is not going anywhere, so don't listen to all the doom and gloom messages designed to deceive those who listen to man

 

See Isa.65:17: For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind,

 

 ... And translate the Hebrew root 'chadash'(khaw-dawsh) (Strong's no.2319) of the KJV word 'new' in the phrase 'new earth'. It means 'rebuild', fresh, new thing. 

 

Also see 2 Pet.3:13: Nevertheless we, according to the promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

 

 and Rev.21:1: And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

 

With 'new earth' The word 'new' in Greek is 'kainos', as in 'freshness'.

     The next Chapter will continue describing the new state of the earth after the flood of Noah's time. We'll pick up there.

 

Peace be with you in Christ Jesus,
