The story of Noah and the flood is one of judgement and salvation, of obedience and disobedience. In an era of overwhelming wickedness, Noah set himself apart by living righteously.
The story of the flood demonstrates both the gravity of God’s justice and the promise of his salvation. Every sin we commit grieves God, and his justice demands judgement for that sin. Just as God provided salvation for Noah and his family when his judgement was brought upon the world, God also provides salvation for each of his followers through Christ.
Noah's faithfulness and obedience to God are an example for us all. Even when faced with ridicule from those around him, he trusted and obeyed God. We should be like Noah, remaining obedient and trusting that God will fulfil His promises.
