2. The Work at the end of Era of Conscience
God requires His sons to be holy. But the depravity of following beautiful women provoked God’s wrath. The wrath of God is always provoked by the corruption of His people, and it was so at the end of Era of Conscience and also the same at the end of man.
The end of Era of Conscience prefigures what will take place at the end of mankind. (Matthew 24:37~39) Corrupt people were annihilated while eating, drinking, and living dissipated life when the wrath of God was poured through the flood, and Jesus said it will be the same when He comes again.
The Lord taught that there are two kinds of God’s Judgement: Judgement of the annihilation of mankind and Judgement according to works, and He also said that Judgement at the end of man will be the same as the Judgement at the end of the Era of Conscience.
The sons of God were more and more corrupted as time went by and He couldn’t tolerate it anymore that He had to judge them, because otherwise the holiness of His sons couldn’t be preserved. Therefore, the Judgement at the end of the Era of Conscience was aiming to restart new mankind through those who preserve their holiness, by getting rid of Cain’s descendants who were the corrupters, and people corrupt.
The command to build an ark that came upon Noah, who had preserved the holiness, was not purposing to save Noah alone. However, only the family of righteous Noah alone remained and others, descendants of Cain and of Seth, were all destroyed because they disobeyed the warning of Noah to the last moment. Only eight people were left, and from Shem, Ham, and Japheth the history of new mankind has continued until today.
