Church Notes Answer to last week's question: Because he believed God and God told him the flood was coming. No co-operation because the people did not believe God and would not listen to Noah's preaching. They were too busy with sin to bother about God's warning. How about you? Your perfectly legitimate and honorable business be comes sin when it occupies you so completely that it hinders your wor ship of God and keeps you from church on Sunday. The same is true of recreation or pleasure. Questions: What were the dimen sions or tne arx: how many uoors or decks did it have? What was the first thing Noah did when he came out of the ark?
