Now let's look at the corruption part.
Corrupt: evil or morally depraved:
synonyms: immoral · depraved · degenerate · reprobate · vice ridden · perverted · debauched · dissolute · dissipated · bad · wicked · evil · base ·
sinful · ungodly · unholy · irreligious · profane · impious · impure · warped
Everyone on earth was corrupt. Everyone except Noah. Can you imagine? As bad as we think things are today, it was so much worse. And we wonder, how bad will society get before God once again says "Enough!" I guess it can get a whole lot worse.
I don't know about you, but I don't want to live in a society where everyone is corrupt. I don't want to be part of that fallen world. I don't want to live separated from God. I want to be like Noah. When God decides "Enough!" I want to be one of the people He finds favor in and says "Follow Me".
I want to follow Jesus now so when God has had enough, I can follow Him out of this corrupt world.
Genesis 6:11-13 NLT
11 Now God saw that the earth had become corrupt and was filled with violence. 12 God observed all this corruption in the world, for everyone on earth was corrupt. 13 So God said to Noah, “I have decided to destroy all living creatures, for they have filled the earth with violence. Yes, I will wipe them all out along with the earth!
