My basement flooded in one area and when cleaning up the water, I made the discovery that the water is coming from the cement and as much as I clean up in that one area, it continues to bleed water. What is going on?

Heavy rains in your area the previous day or while you were cleaning up? If not it could be a broken water line. If it is just heavy rain check your eavestrough for leaks and try to have the downspout carry the water 10 feet from the house.
