Genesis 6:5 - Additional Comments
The wickedness of the people was great, as shown when renowned men of reputation in the eyes of the public are also noted sinners. This is the state of our country today. We are not permitted to discuss Godly morality in public. Anyone looking at the state of our country may see goodness abound, but God knows the hearts of men, and sees their desire to continuously do evil. Do not marvel when you rarely see people making decisions based on what is right rather than the consequences. This is where you can be different, can be light, can be salt.
