Our Salvation and Noah’s Salvation • Our Salvation, Like Noah’s, Is CRITICAL − We desperately need to be saved from evil (as did Noah) − The people around Noah were “disobedient” (i. e. , evil) (3: 20) − It was “the world of the ungodly” (2 Pet. 2: 5 + Gen. 6: 5) − Salvation is God separating us from evil • Our Salvation, Like Noah’s, Is UNIVERSAL − God wants all people to be saved today (as He did in Noah’s) − Even though the world was condemned, God still sent Noah to preach (2 Pet. 2: 5; 1 Pet. 3: 19+1: 11) − Salvation was available to all and to be offered to all − Salvation is still available to all and to be offered to all (Heb. 2: 9; Mark 16: 15; Rom. 1: 16; Acts 10: 34 -35)
