What is the significance of Noah's ark to the present generation?

Answer 1

Noah's ark is not embodied in the plan of salvation for all mankind. Jesus calls everyone to repentance, to acceptance of his sacrifice on the cross as the only means by which men can be saved. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life, no one comes to the Father except by me." There is a disbelief, like in Noah's generation, of God's ultimate judgment, but it will come. Evangelical churches proclaim this message and some, like in Noah's time, ignore the loving invitation God makes through his servants. Eventually, the opportunity will be closed by God himself, as God closed the door to the Ark. Noah did not close the Ark, God did, and once closed, the opportunity for salvation from the wrath of God is gone, as it was in Noah's time. God is ever patient and does not want anyone to perish, and he lovingly invites all. "Behold I stand at the door and knock. If any man hears my voice and open the door I will come in." God stands at the door of your heart this very day. God uses his servants to make that invitation to you. Noah called upon the people to get on the ark. He believed God. Do you believe God today? If so, come to Jesus in repentance: 1. Admit your a sinner. 2. Ask his forgiveness for your sin. 3. Confess him as Lord and Savior. He is the Ark that will keep you, protect and preserve you. He paid the price for your sin and mine and he has prepared a mansion for you in heaven where he wants you to abide. Don't delay as the people of Noah's time did. Do so before it is too late for you.
