I trust the study we undertook on the book of Job has been a blessing to those reading these devotionals. That study will help to shape our future studies. All of Scripture is designed to help the true child of God to build on the sure foundation of the Lord Jesus Christ. All Scripture is designed to help the lost person to see the imperative of being saved and thus getting on the sure foundation of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The text we have today was given to Noah by God, after the flood. Only eight people were left on the earth at that time. It was up to Noah and his wife and his three sons and their wives to begin the process of filling the earth with people once again. Noah and his family needed to be reminded of the sanctify of life. God is the One who gives physical life and He is the only One Who rightfully sets the parameters for the end of life. Spiritual life is also a gift of God and it requires the choice of man to receive it.
It is not that many years ago where an NDP politician worked to assist a person to “legally” commit suicide. At that time the debate was on medically assisted suicide. For years the governments supposedly insisted that suicide was against the law. They acted as though they wanted to try to prevent people from taking their own lives. Then as mentioned, things started to shift and it became a compassionate thing to help people with severe medical problems to be able to “die with dignity”. In 1993 a farmer from Saskatchewan killed his severely handicapped daughter in what he called an act of mercy. The government took him to court and he was eventually convicted of second degree murder and sentenced to ten years in prison. He has since been given full parole, but is still fighting to have his name cleared. That particular case has many twists and turns to it, but the killing of a living person without just cause, is murder according to God.
It is interesting to know that this man needs to fight to have his name cleared when in 2021 the government of Canada passed Bill C-7 which makes it “legal” to kill another human being who is not guilty of an unjust killing. It is also interesting to note that capital punishment is not allowed in Canada because it is “not right to take another person’s life for any reason”. Yet the murder of unborn children has been allowed and accepted by many for many, many years and now by changing the name from medically assisted suicide to MAID — Medical Assistance In Dying, it is the “compassionate” thing to do.
We see again how a godless system works. When man becomes his own god, mankind is in big trouble. We have witnessed a gross overreach of governmental powers over the past three years with the mandates on masks and social distancing and the shots that the government has tried to force upon all people. The mandate on the shots in particular, goes against the Nuremberg Code which was passed after the Second World War. It was a reaction to prevent another Hitlerian type of mass murder. Yet now, through deception and godless leaders, Parliament has passed a law to endorse the murder of people with medical problems and they want to expand it to people with mental health problems.
All of this is the result of accepting the ungodly government funded health care system. I can remember when there was no government funded health care. I was a child at that time, but I am sure that the medical bills could be quite a challenge in a family that had individuals that were not particularly healthy. However, with the government run health care system, we see that our government now thinks they own us and have the right to tell us what drugs and poisons we should take and which drugs and even herbal remedies we should not take.
It is too late now to get the horse back in the barn. He has long left and he is enjoying the frolicking around that he can do.
Jesus warned the people in John 8:44:

John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
