Heb.11:7, Gn.6:22-7:5 A man of faith, foolish Noah

Heb.11:7, By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.

Genesis6:22-7:5, 22Noah did everything just as God commanded him. 1The LORD then said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation. 2Take with you seven of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and two of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, 3and also seven of every kind of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive throughout the earth. 4Seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living creature I have made." 5And Noah did all that the LORD commanded him.

  An earthquake in Mexico killed hundreds and caused much damage. I pray that God's comfort will be healed and restored. It is the grace of God that we live. The uniqueness of Christianity is the grace of God. It is God's salvation and eternal life given for free. God came to us and saved us. It is God's wonderful grace to come to Noah and his family and save them. *The people who survived the sinking of the Titanic (1912) is the grace of the Lord. All were destroyed by the flood of Noah's Era. Only Noah's eight families survived. It is the grace of the Lord.
 Hebrews 11: 7, "By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith."

Please experience God's blessings which Noah got.

1. Believe in the living God and His Word (Hebrews11:7, Genesis 6:9,13).

  One day God said to Noah, "I will destroy this world and people that are full of sins. Noah built a ship in the midst of the dry land for 120 years, believing in God and His Word. Noah was warned of things that were not yet seen and prepared for the ark with awe. With holy fear, they received the Word, received the fear, and obeyed the Lord's Word (Philippians 2:12, 2 Corinthians 7:1,15). Do we have that fear before God and the Word? If we live without fear, judgment comes near. Do not cross the Red Line with the fear of God. * The border of Niagara Falls.

2. Noah was obedient and prepared the ark (Hebrews 11:7, Gen. 6:22, 7:1-5).

  Noah kept the Ark in the mountains, obeying the Word, even in the clearest of days. Obeying the Word is obedience to God. People ridiculed and
laughed and obeyed. 7: 5, "Noah did everything the LORD commanded him." How wonderful?
True faith is obedience to the Almighty God and the Word. * Naaman, Rahab
Faith is to throw yourself, your life, your future into the Lord. * It is safe to leave yourself to the catcher who lives in the circus. Let us live in obedience to God.

3. What is the result of Noah's faith and obedience? (Hebrews 11:7)

  "By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith." 1) Through the grace of God, all the family of Noah was saved. Noah stands for Jesus Christ, and the ark stands for the Church, which is a gathering of those who believe in Jesus. There is no way of salvation except Jesus. 2) Noah became heir of righteousness following faith. Noah was justified by faith in God when the grace of God was poured out. He lived as the Sonship of God and the kingship of God which delivers His righteousness. Noah became the father of mankind after the flood. We can not excuse the world and our neighbors for the reasons why we do not do our faith. The darker the world, the more Saints must live righteously. This is Noah's testimony. Let us frankly confess to the Lord and ask for help. ' Now let us look at the Lord and live by true faith. I live by faith like Noah, so that I may be righteous, and be in right relationship with God. Let him who is living in a perfect attitude before God, heir of righteousness that walks with God. "

Today, people around the world are not interested in spiritual affairs because they are absorbed in everyday life. Spiritual indifference. Jesus speaks in Matthew 24:38,39. "38For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away..." How interested are you in God and the kingdom? Is not the sound of footsteps coming back from Jesus Christ coming close? The God who saved Noah in the judgment of the Flood still keeps the way of salvation today. It is only in Jesus Christ.

Paul used the word "in Christ." Have you found this ark of salvation? There is forgiveness and eternal life in Christ. Are you in the ark? This question is still valid today. The large ark had the only one door.
 There is only one gate of salvation. Jesus says. John 10: 9, "I am the door, and through me I will be saved if I go in; "There is no one." Acts 4:12, "No other man can be saved, for there is no other name under heaven given to us by any other name to be saved." Did you come into Jesus Christ? Noah seems stupid at the time. But by faith he was saved, the righteous, the ancestor of mankind. Let's go the road of faith even when it is tearful and painful.
Pray that you will be faithful in Jesus Christ and obedient so that you, your family and your neighbors can be saved, and convey your righteousness. Amen.
