Did Jesus Speak About The Flood

Yes, Jesus spoke about the Flood from Noah’s time, using it as a warning about judgment, preparedness, and His second coming. He compared the days of Noah to the end times, highlighting how people were unaware of impending destruction.


1. Jesus Compares Noah’s Flood to the End Times

📖 Matthew 24:37-39

“As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.
For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark;
and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.”

🔹 Key Takeaways:

  • People in Noah’s time ignored warnings and lived as if nothing would happen.
  • The Flood came suddenly, just as Jesus says His return will be unexpected.
  • Judgment will come, and people must be prepared.

2. Jesus Warns About Unbelief, Like in Noah’s Time

📖 Luke 17:26-27

“Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man.
People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.”

🔹 Key Takeaways:

  • Jesus confirms the Flood was real and uses it as a lesson.
  • People ignored Noah’s warnings (Genesis 6:5-22).
  • The wicked were destroyed, but Noah and his family were saved.

3. What Was Jesus Teaching Through the Flood Story?

The Flood was a real historical event that Jesus affirmed.
Most people ignored Noah’s warnings, just as many ignore Jesus’ warnings.
The world was judged by water, but the future judgment will be by fire (2 Peter 3:6-7).
Just as Noah was saved in the ark, believers are saved in Christ.
