What happened to all the people who died in the flood in Noah's time?

Question

Surely all of them wasn't so evil they were condemned to Hell. How about the innocent children?

Answer 1

They went to hell with all the dinosaurs BB

Answer 2

The children pay for the sins of their parents and it continues even to this day. When the flood came, all people died in the flood, excepts the ones on the Arch. When the parents sin against God, then the children of the sinners will suffer. That is why we all need to walk the straight an narrow and bring our children up in the way they should go. Our precious , innocent children suffer. More than anyone realizes.

Answer 3

The bible says it changed into 2 of each and each and every of the unclean male and lady. (and that could want to propose 2 male and 2 lady) and seven of the sparkling male and lady (similar element applies). And Noah did not ought to round them up. God drew them to the position they mandatory to be. If God can talk to Noah (His creation) He can talk to the animals (also His creation). And as for information there is information of a global flood. Sediment and sea shells on the top of the utmost mountains. Bones in wallet all international huge. So scientist, anthropologist, archaeologist ( non-christian and christian alike) all talk of a global flood. Now the Ark is a distinct tale. There are comments of it being got here upon and video clips yet as of yet it has not been scientifically substantiated that that's basically The Ark. The bushes and fungi- I stay on the coast and we've Tropical Storms and Hurricanes. And we do lose some bushes yet not all. We free some flora yet not all. basically after a hurricane at the same time as the Island starts recouping, evidently better than it did earlier. Now i understand you'll probable brush aside all I really have suggested. yet i desire you're literally not one among those who basically ignores fact. some no count number number how a lot information of something they basically opt for to push aside it because acknowledging it skill finding out what it really skill. Like ignoring the information about a global flood. basically you could't, it really surpassed off and there is medical information of it international huge. yet now the actual incontrovertible fact that Noah changed into component to it is going to comprise information from faith. And all the different issues from the bible that are substantiated. little with information from little all of that's. My Dad suggested a time at the same time as they did not believe there turned right into a Jericho yet low and behold they have got here upon it. He suggested there turned right into a time at the same time as they suggested there changed into no information there changed into ever a King David and then low and behold they got here upon that information also. So ultimately it is going to all be printed one way or the different. i will stop with this one quote from the bible, "A wicked and perverse technology seeks an illustration" "Blessed are those who have not considered yet yet believed."

Answer 4

1 Peter 3
18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

When they died, their spirits went to 'spirit prison', when Christ died he preached to these spirits. What did he preach to them? The same thing he taught everyone else on earth of course. Repent, be baptized, accept that he paid for their sins (just Christ for the unjust evil doers - why, that he might bring us to God of course), do what is right. He would not go there to preach to them if there was no hope for them or if there was no way for them to be redeemed, that would just be mean. The children won't be condemned either, they are innocent. They went to spirit paradise. Eventually everyone will be resurrected, judged and live in the appropriate place.

Answer 5

They were exterminated by God and since it was by His hand they will probably not be resurrected.

The Bible really does NOT teach in a hellfire where people are tortured forever because they didn't do Gods will or learn the truth.

It is not compatable with God's personality. Take a look:

"And they have built the high places of To′pheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hin′nom, in order to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, a thing that I had not commanded and that had not come up into my heart." -Jeremiah 7:31

Fire is often used as a symbol of destruction, so it is with the "lake of fire" in Revelation and "Gehenna" that Jesus spoke of.
***************

Below from a publication from a Bible study Publication in 1989

Yet someone may object, saying: ‘The Bible does talk about hellfire and the lake of fire. Does this not prove that hell is a place of torment?’ True, some Bible translations, such as the King James Version, speak of “hell fire” and of being “cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched.” (Matthew 5:22; Mark 9:45) All together there are 12 verses in the Christian Greek Scriptures where the King James Version uses “hell” to translate the Greek word Gehenna. Is Gehenna really a place of fiery torment, whereas when Hades is translated “hell” it simply means the grave?

14 Clearly, the Hebrew word Sheol and the Greek word Hades do mean the grave. Well, then, what does Gehenna mean? In the Hebrew Scriptures Gehenna is “the valley Hinnom.” Remember, Hinnom was the name of the valley just outside the walls of Jerusalem where the Israelites sacrificed their children in the fire. In time, good King Josiah had this valley made unfit to be used for such a horrible practice. (2 Kings 23:10) It was turned into a huge garbage, or rubbish, dump.

15 So during the time Jesus was on earth Gehenna was Jerusalem’s garbage dump. Fires were kept burning there by the adding of brimstone (sulfur) to burn up the garbage. Smith’s Dictionary of the Bible, Volume 1, explains: “It became the common lay-stall [garbage dump] of the city, where the dead bodies of criminals, and the carcasses of animals, and every other kind of filth was cast.” No live creatures, however, were cast there.

16 Knowing about their city’s garbage dump, Jerusalem’s inhabitants understood what Jesus meant when he told the wicked religious leaders: “Serpents, offspring of vipers, how are you to flee from the judgment of Gehenna?” (Matthew 23:33) Jesus plainly did not mean that those religious leaders would be tormented. Why, when the Israelites were burning their children alive in that valley, God said that to do such a horrible thing had never come up into his heart! So it was clear that Jesus was using Gehenna as a fitting symbol of complete and everlasting destruction. He meant that those wicked religious leaders were not worthy of a resurrection. Those listening to Jesus could understand that those going to Gehenna, like so much garbage, would be destroyed forever.

17 What, then, is “the lake of fire” mentioned in the Bible book of Revelation? It has a meaning similar to that of Gehenna. It means not conscious torment but everlasting death, or destruction. Notice how the Bible itself says this at Revelation 20:14: “And death and Hades [hell, King James Version and Douay Version] were hurled into the lake of fire. This means the second death, the lake of fire.” Yes, the lake of fire means “second death,” the death from which there is no resurrection. It is evident that this “lake” is a symbol, because death and hell (Hades) are thrown into it. Death and hell cannot literally be burned. But they can, and will, be done away with, or destroyed.

Answer 6

The Bible says that their hearts were corrupted against God, so yes, it's likely that they will be in hell. Children are not innocent, the Bible is clear that sin is not just personal, but it is passed on to children by their parents. In fact, the sin nature is thought to be spiritually passed on by the father, and so bc Jesus was born of a virgin, He had a fresh start like Adam, which is why He's called the last Adam.

No one is innocent, not even babies. However, I do believe that, as C.S.Lewis said, God will not judge us as though we had no difficulties to overcome. I think He understands that some ppl die in infancy, due to illness, or sometimes parental neglect or abortion, others are mentally ill or otherwise incapable of understanding a thought. I think that God will, nevertheless, provide some way for them to know Him. I don't know what that way is, but bc God is just and doesn't want anyone to go to hell, I'm sure He'll provide a way.

Answer 7

Everyone was given the option to join Noah on the ark. They chose their own fate. Children are a different story as well as mentally challenged people. According to the Bible, every child who dies before the age of accountability goes to heaven to spend eternity in the presence of God. Isaiah 7:16

Answer 8

Those folks all died in the flood as to what happens to them only God knows. Why do you say they were not so evil. Yes, they were, they would sacrifice those dear little children that you accuse God of so cruelly killing. Those kids were treated deplorably, especially girls.

Answer 9

God is just. I'm sure he will be fair to any children or retarded people in the judgement day. As far as the people in the days of Noah, Peter says they are confined to chains of darkness until judgement day.

Answer 10

Since the fall of man, the basis of salvation has always been the death of Christ. No one, either prior to the cross or since the cross, would ever be saved without that one pivotal event in the history of the world. Christ's death paid the penalty for past sins of Old Testament saints and future sins of New Testament saints.
The requirement for salvation has always been faith. The object of one's faith for salvation has always been God. The psalmist wrote, "Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him" (Psalm 2:12). Genesis 15:6 tells us that Abraham believed God and that was enough for God to account it to him for righteousness (see also Romans 4:3-8). The Old Testament sacrificial system did not take away sin, as Hebrews 9:1-10:4 clearly teaches. It did, however, point to the day when the Son of God would shed His blood for the sinful human race.
What has changed through the ages is the content of a believer's faith. God's requirement of what must be believed is based on the amount of revelation He has given mankind up to that time. This is called progressive revelation. Adam believed the promise God gave in Genesis 3:15 that the Seed of the woman would conquer Satan. Adam believed Him, demonstrated by the name he gave Eve (v.20) and the Lord indicated His acceptance immediately by covering them with coats of skin (v.21). At that point that is all Adam knew, but he believed it.
Abraham believed God according to the promises and new revelation God gave him in Genesis 12 and 15. Prior to Moses, no Scripture was written, but mankind was responsible for what God had revealed. Throughout the Old Testament, believers came to salvation because they believed that God would someday take care of their sin problem. Today, we look back, believing that He has already taken care of our sins on Calvary (John 3:16; Hebrews 9:28).
What about believers in Christ's day, prior to the cross and resurrection, what did they believe? Did they understand the full picture of Christ dying on a cross for their sins? Late in his ministry, "Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day" (Matthew 16:21). What was the reaction of His disciples to this message? "Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, '‘Far be it from you, Lord; this shall not happen to you!'" (16:22). Peter, and the other disciples, did not know the full truth, yet they were saved because they believed that God would take care of their sin problem. They didn't exactly know how He would accomplish that, any more than Adam, Abraham, Moses, or David knew how, but they believed God.
Today, we have more revelation than did people living before the resurrection of Christ, we know the full picture. "God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son" (Hebrews 1:1-2). Our salvation is still based on the death of Christ, our faith is still the requirement for salvation, and the object of our faith is still God. Today for us the content of our faith is that Christ died for our sins, that He was buried, and that He rose the third day (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

Answer 11

Heaven.
