Rainbow

Lets read the words of Jehovah God recorded in the Bible, And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth. And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. (Gen 9:11-13)
We all know that in the Bible there is the record of the rainbow, and that it relates to the stories God destroys the world with a flood and Noah makes an ark. From the Bible, we can only know that because people at that time were corrupt, evil, depraved, and committed all sins, which incurred Gods loathing, God destroyed the world with a flood and then established a covenant with man with a rainbow as its token. But, do we know the true meaning of God putting the rainbow in the sky?

i would try to make sense of that by using my coconut alone.
Rain gives life to plants which is the base source of sustenance of all living things. When do we see a rainbow? After rains, we usually see rainbows. So it signifies that Rain from the heavens has been Given to the Earth below. Rain in heaven could be a metaphor for Gods grace to life and rainbow is just a stamp that the grace of God/Rain has been given.
I think the rainbow signifies that there is a visible proof of God's grace. And from the story of Noah, who is chosen and saved by God, the proof of God's grace is a rainbow.
Rainfall could be dangerous if its too much and life giving if its enough. So in bad times, and good times, God's grace which is proven by the rainbow, is always there.0 -

I encounted the same confused before,Until one day my friend read God's word with me. God's word,Everyone has seen such a rainbow, and when you see it, do you know how it appears? Science is incapable of proving it, or of locating its source, or identifying its whereabouts. That is because the rainbow is a sign of the covenant established between the Creator and man; it requires no scientific basis, it was not made by man, nor is man capable of altering it. It is a continuation of the Creators authority after He spoke His words. The Creator used His own particular method to abide by His covenant with man and His promise, and so His use of the rainbow as a sign of the covenant that He had established is a heavenly edict and law that shall remain forever unchanged, whether in regard to the Creator or the created mankind. Yet this immutable law is, it must be said, another true manifestation of the Creators authority following His creation of all things, and it must be said that the authority and power of the Creator are limitless; His use of the rainbow as a sign is a continuation and extension of the Creators authority. This was another act performed by God using His words, and was a sign of the covenant that God had established with man using words. He told man of that which He resolved to bring about, and with what manner it would be fulfilled and achieved, and in this way the matter was fulfilled according to the words from Gods mouth. Only God is possessed of such power, and today, several thousand years after He spoke these words, man can still look upon the rainbow spoken from the mouth of God. Because of those words uttered by God, this thing has remained unaltered and unchanged right up until today. None can remove this rainbow, none can change its laws, and it exists solely for the words of God. This is precisely the authority of God. God is as good as His word, and His word shall be accomplished, and that which is accomplished lasts forever. Such words are clearly manifested here, and it is a clear sign and characteristic of the authority and power of God. Such a sign or characteristic is not possessed by or seen in any of the created beings, nor is it seen in any of the non-created beings. It belongs only to the unique God, and distinguishes the identity and substance possessed only by the Creator from that of the creatures. At the same time, it is also a sign and characteristic that, apart from God Himself, can never be surpassed by any created or non-created being. (from A Continuation of the Word Appears in the Flesh )After read the God's word I understood the true meaning of God putting the rainbow in the sky.0 -
