In the Bible the origin of the rainbow is clearly defined. Genesis chapter 9, verse 8 to 17 states:
“And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying, And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you; And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth. 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. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth. And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.”
As you can see, God created the rainbow after the great flood of Noah’s time, as a covenant with man and every living creature, that He will never flood the earth again.
Unfortunately, in the last 45 years or so, the original meaning of the rainbow has been under attack by our adversary, Satan. Today the most recognized use of a rainbow is to signify the “LGBT Pride” movement. The purpose of this movement is directly contrary to many fundamental tenets of the bible which God views as an abomination. If anyone is curious as to which tenets I am speaking about, please have a read of the FYI section below. It’s worth noting as well that God’s rainbow has 7 colours (which is the number of completeness or divine perfection), whilst the “LGBT Pride” rainbow has 6 colours (which is the number of man).
So, I implore all of you not to forget the covenant from God that the rainbow symbolises. No matter what they try to teach you at school, on the TV, on the radio or on social media. Furthermore, whenever possible we should fight to preserve it’s original meaning and boldly speak the truth, no matter what the perceived consequences may be. Remembering that we should fear God rather than man.
Thank you for listening. I love you all. May the Grace of God and our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
FYI:
The purpose of the “LGBT Pride” movement is to promote pride, homosexual relations, transgenderism, equality of the sexes, cross-dressing and the effeminate man.

God finds pride to be an abomination. Proverbs 16:5 – “Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.” Proverbs 16:18 – “Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.”
-
God finds homosexual relations to be an abomination. Leviticus 18:22 – “Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” Leviticus 20:13 – “If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.” 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 – “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.” Romans 1:26-27 – “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: 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.”
-
God created us as male and female, this is an objective truth dictated by our very DNA and not based upon our feelings. Mark 10:6 – “But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.”
-
God did not create man and woman equal; each have their respective strengths and weakness and He has set out a clear hierarchy (although I find it important to stress that He values both man and woman equally). 1 Corinthians 11:3 – “But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.”
-
God finds a man or woman who dresses in the garments of the opposite sex to be an abomination. Deuteronomy 22:5 – “The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.”
-
God states that the effeminate man will not inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”
Why do you think that anyone should take a 3000-year-old Jewish fable as a fact?
God called me to Him and has revealed to me that He is real, showing mercy unto me even though I was a wicked sinner on my way to hell. The Bible, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, is God’s inspired Word. Inerrant in its original writing, the Bible is the only authoritative and infallible rule of faith and conduct for humanity. Now I thirst to spread the truth, working for the Lord as His humble servant. I hope that God will touch your heart too, and reveal this to you as well, and I hope that if He does, you receive it with joy and gladness.
