We read of the Flood, and God looked down and saw that mankind was evil, and of his thoughts were evil all the time. And He regretted that He had made man, and said, "I will destroy man I have created off the face of the Earth, man and every beast that creeps on the Earth, and flies overhead, and all that I created. But here's the curious thing--God created fish to swim in water. They have gills. How could you drown a fish? And if God created them to survive in water, if He destroyed them WITH water, wouldn't God be contradicting Himself? Either they were made to survive in water, or they would drown in water. How can they both be true? Uh huh? So, what happened to the fish during the flood?

What happened to fish at the flood?

Yeah...2 of each, to breed again. But those not in the Ark died, whereas the fish, being able to swim and live in water, and noticing that it doesn't state the fish were brought on the Ark...makes it look like they were immune to the Flood. The flip side of that is, about the New Heaven and Earth. "Then I saw a New Heaven and a new Earth, for the old Heaven and Earth had passed away, AND THE SEA IS NO MORE." The sea is no more...again, fish??

His Uh huh in his question made it seem as such as per my reply. I didn't mean to make it sound as he can't ask questions, his question sounds or made it sound as a Atheist trying to make fun or Mock Jesus.
Doesn't mean I was wrong either, for the spirit is what leads a person in truth and before we are to even begin reading scripture were to ask the holy spirit to lead and guide us.
Excuse my assumption, but I am still correct in saying the spirit leads us.

I was just reading this and thought of you.
Proverbs 3:5 kjv
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
This goes with dying to ourselves and taking no thought for ourselves, dying to our thoughts for ourselves etc. We get more out of God's Word when we shut off ourselves and only focus on what God/Jesus says
I know your curious about a lot of things but if you would do what Christ Jesus Instructs, you would be shown a great much more than you can possibly know or understand

As I said if he destroyed the fish too, then he probably took the oxygen out of the water.
Uhm, and I could be wrong on your no more sea remark, but in Revelations it notes that waters or sea are Peoples nations and tongues that the Beast comes out of. Sea is politics, or could be. It does say though Noah was to bring in 7 of every kind of the clean beast, that would or should include fish. And then two of every kind of unclean beast including other fish. Clams, sucker fish, catfish etc... those that don't have scales as it's noted in the dietary rules. to not eat any fish that doesn't have scales.
So I assume Noah did bring in fish on the ark in aquarium's etc... two of every kind of the unclean, and 7 of every kind of the clean. Please excuse my assumption on my reply. But I think this may answer your question a bit better.
This is what it does say:
7. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. Nothing about fish anyway. But:
sort
shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee;
they shall be male and female.
20. Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.
Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.
3. Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.

Why did God give us a brain, if we just turn it off?I was just reading this and thought of you.

I'll agree with you there, {last statement} but just saying, not everyone saying or posting the same thing has the same intention. Like I say, there are pastors who have call in shows, some call in for prayers, but others call in to ask about certain verses, what does this or that mean. It's not unheard of, or automatically done with bad intentions.

According to that someone will think for me too. So I'm supposed to sit there like a mope?I read someplace in the Bible once that someone else will do our physical works for us if we are concentrating on and doing God's Works and it is true my friend but do what seems right with you buddy
