Genesis
9:18 ¶ And the sons of Noah, that went
forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of
Canaan. 19 These are the three sons of
Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread. 20 And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he
planted a vineyard: 21 And he drank of
the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. 22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the
nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. 23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid
it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of
their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father’s
nakedness.
Genesis
9:24 ¶ And Noah awoke from his wine, and
knew what his younger son had done unto him. 25
And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto
his brethren. 26 And he said, Blessed be
the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant. 27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell
in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
Genesis
9:28 ¶ And Noah lived after the flood
three hundred and fifty years. 29 And
all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
Here we have the
beginning of all of the earth’s mythologies as, after the dispersion of mankind
at Babel, as men and women grew more distant from the worship of the God who
created them and they began to elevate ancestors and mighty men to the level of
gods. Noah will eventually become Odin with his two birds and his passion for
wine and we’ll have more on this topic later. Cultures will have a memory of
patriarchs long dead who will be raised to the level of gods. When you add this
to creating gods to explain so-called natural phenomenon that Jehovah God
causes, to devils themselves demanding worship, and pure entertainment around a
campfire with stories embellished and made more interesting with each
generation you can see how mankind descended into idolatry.
Abraham was called
out of this religious mess and eventually Moses was given the task of writing
down the truth to always have a record for mankind to compare history and
religious beliefs against. After the Flood things began to get murky and after
Babel things went downhill fast spiritually.
Here is the
spiritual history of man summed up for us, explaining the sexual content of
ancient religion and how it came about.
Romans
1:19 ¶ Because that which may be known
of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the
creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are
made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God,
they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their
imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became
fools, 23 And changed the glory of the
uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and
fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of
their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and
worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for
ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave
them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use
into that which is against nature: 27
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned
in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly,
and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to
retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do
those things which are not convenient; 29
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity;
whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of
God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding,
covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they
which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have
pleasure in them that do them.
