The Righteous Judge // Genesis 6:5-13

In this study, we'll explore the parallels between the earths' first great day of judgment, the Flood, and what will be its second great day judgment - the end times. Most importantly, we'll look at what the Flood reveals about the judgment every person will face when they stand before the throne of Jesus, and the steps we must take right now to prepare ourselves for that moment.

SMALL GROUP QUESTIONS:

- How does the concept of God as a 'righteous judge' challenge or align with your personal view of God's nature?

- In what ways do you see parallels between the wickedness described in Noah's time and the state of our world today?

- How do you decide what media you do/don't consume (e.g., TV shows, movies, music, podcasts)?

- Do you feel like God is always fully present with you?

Have you ever "felt" God's presence?

How do you make it through seasons of life where you don't feel God's presence?

- What does it mean to you to live as though you truly believe in the coming judgment, as Peter exhorts believers to do?
