“Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. 4 They will say, "What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created." 5 They deliberately forget that God made the heavens by the word of his command, and he brought the earth out from the water and surrounded it with water. 6 Then he used the water to destroy the ancient world with a mighty flood. 7 And by the same word, the present heavens and earth have been stored up for fire. They are being kept for the day of judgment, when ungodly people will be destroyed.” - 2 Pet 3:3-7
Recently Bill Nye the so called "science guy” visited the Noah’s Ark exhibit/replica from Answers in Genesis in Cincinnati Ohio. Ken Ham gave him a personal tour, had a mini debate, preached the gospel, and prayed for Bill. However Nye’s intentions were to ridicule the exhibit, real scientists, and creationism. Nye like many other agnostics and atheists are willfully ignorant of the truth of God. They profess to not believe in God yet go to great lengths to attack this God they don’t believe in; they travel hundreds of miles to protest their biblical illiteracy about Noah’s Ark and creation.
God’s word refers to people like this as scoffers, “mocking the truth and following their own desires” (3:3) There were mockers in Noah’s time and we should expect mockers in Ken’s time as well. Many are adamant and will stop at nothing to further their secular agenda and ungodly indoctrination. But God has a message and a purpose for them if they continue in their rebellion against Him. The message is not that it is going to rain water but that it’s gonna rain fire next, and the only Ark that can save them is Jesus Christ (Jn 10:9) He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, No one comes to the Father except through Him (Jn 14:6). Like Ken and like Noah we need to share the urgent message of salvation to the lost that they may be spared from the judgement to come upon the whole world. Jesus came lowly in a donkey to save mankind the first time, but next time He will come exalted in a white horse to judge every tongue and soul that opposes and exalts itself over Him.
