The population of the earth during the pre-flood era has been estimated by Bible scholars at between one and twelve billion. Similar to earth's current situation of about eight billion inhabitants.
The Bible tells us that during the 100 years that Noah built the Ark, only his family believed. The family trusted God, grew in faith and most importantly, they prepared themselves.
After the deluge started, others began to believe, but it was too late. God had already shut the door of the Ark.
Jesus told the disciples that when he comes again, "It will be as in the days of Noah". His appearance will be sudden. Too late for billions who refuse to love God, our Creator, and believe.
In the parable of the women and the wedding, Jesus said only 1/2 of the Church will be ready. To the other 1/2 who were not ready he said, "Depart from me, I never knew you."
