If anyone is to blame for sin returning to the world after the "flood," it is God himself. If God truly desired to rid the world of sin and evil, he should have addressed the root cause, which he identified as the human heart (Genesis 6:5...every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually). But he did not change the human heart; instead, he just killed all living beings, including those who had done no evil or committed any sin (animals, birds, fish, grass, and trees). He is God. He declares himself to be all-knowing, knowing everything from beginning to end. He knows us so well that in Matthew 10:30 it states, "But the very hairs of your head are all numbered." So he knew exactly what would happen if he didn't change people's hearts. The world would return to pre-flood conditions. In truth, the world keeps getting worse.
Ezekiel 36:26,27- "A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them." Why didn't he do this after the flood? He waits until he sacrifices himself in the person of Jesus to give sinners a new heart. Yeah, that makes sense.
God's flood not only killed all humans (save for eight on the ark), animals, birds, and aquatic life (though the Bible does not explicitly declare this), but it also killed grass and trees. Vegetation cannot survive being buried in so much water without drowning. Yes, trees and grass would drown. So, when Noah sent out the dove and it returned with an olive branch, how did an olive tree survive a tremendous flood? According to the Bible, "And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the HIGH hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the MOUNTAINS were covered." Genesis 7:19,20.
The trees' roots would have drowned, and the bark would begin to rot when the waters receded. We know that nothing blooms and grows on a dead tree. According to Tree Journey website, "It takes around 3 to 6 years for olives to grow on outdoor trees and around 1 year indoors." From oliveknowledge, " It can take a few years for notable growth to be seen. As we have said, these are slow-growing and long-lived trees." "Germination from seeds requires fresh olives; Seedlings grow slowly and need shade and frequent watering; Trees grow about 12 inches per year, taking years to reach notable size". Once again, where did the dove find an olive tree that survived a massive flood that covered the high hills and mountains?
Also, take note, that the dove is white and symbolizes love and peace; the raven is black and symbolizes bad luck and negativity; and they are also predators. Let that sink into your subconscious for a while. The true writers (dark occultists) of the Bible knew exactly what they were doing when they symbolized the dove as peace and the raven as malevolence.
When Christians can't find an explanation in their Bible or just can't answer a question, they respond with the over-used phrase "It was God's plan". However, in the same breath, they will emphatically proclaim that "no one can know the mind of God". Nonetheless, they understand the plan of God. Idiocy at best.
And what was God's plan? Kill more people? If Satan went by the name John and God went by the name Steve, and Steve killed all these people while John did not, would you still believe Steve was good and John evil if you were unaware that Steve was God?
Does God have the right to kill humanity at will? He doesn't need any reason? Using the same rationale, people should be permitted to kill others at will. Wrong. God is referred to as both righteous and just. He would be breaking his sixth commandment: "You shall not murder." (Hebrew interpretation) if he killed humans without just cause and without mercy and forgiveness. And this god is said to be loving, compassionate, merciful, forgiving, and righteous.
