The Congregational Pulpit Genesis 9:28-29 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.… I. GOD IS ALWAYS FAITHFUL to His promises, and mindful of those who trust in Him. II. THE GOODNESS AND FAITHFULNESS OF GOD are further seen in His care for all His creatures, and in the steadfast order of nature. (Genesis 8; Genesis 9:9, 10.) III. NOAH'S SIN is a most solemn warning. (1 Corinthians 10:12; Ephesians 5:18; 1 Peter 5:8.) It is a sad finish to the history of so eminent a saint; an ominous beginning to the history of a new world. The first recorded sin after the Fall was a sin of violence; the first recorded sin after the flood was a sin of self-indulgence and sensuality. It is hard to say which of these two classes of sin has been, and is, the greatest curse to mankind. (The Congregational Pulpit.)
