Grace is defined: “favor, or mercy.” Genesis 6:8 states, “But Noah found grace in the eyes of the
LORD.” “But Noah found favor in the eyes of Jehovah” (ASV-1901).
We Are Saved by Grace
Ephesians 2:8 says, “For by grace are ye saved through faith.”
Noah Was Saved by Faith
Hebrews 11:7 reads, “By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with
fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house.”
We Are Saved by Faith
Hebrews 11:6 specifies, “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God
must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” As noted earlier,
“For by grace are ye saved through faith” (Eph. 2:8).
Noah Was Saved by Obedience
Compare Hebrews 11:7 (again) with Genesis 6:22: “Thus did Noah; according to all that God
commanded him, so did he.”
We Are Saved by Obedience
Jesus said in Matthew 7:21: “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the
kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” The Hebrews author
penned, “Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; And
being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him” (Heb.
5:8-9).
Noah Was Saved by Water
“Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah,
while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water” (1 Pet. 3:20).
We Are Saved by Water
1 Peter 3:21 states, “The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting
away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection
of Jesus Christ.”
A faith that will not obey is a faith that will not save!
