Nowadays, the rainbow is popular for a variety of reasons. Perhaps many don't know that the Bible recounts how it was chosen by God to be a memorial and a promise. It reminds us of God's judgement of mankind's wickedness that prompted Him to destroy all but Noah and his immediate family by a worldwide flood. You can read about it in Genesis chapters six to nine.
The rainbow serves as a promise that God will never again use a flood to punish a sinful world. But that does not mean that God is no longer angered by the wickedness of mankind and our rejection of Him. So the rainbow is also an important reminder that God judges sin.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
(Galatians 6:7)
