The Ark Of Safety

When man became so wicked that he rebelled against God, God decided to destroy the world with a flood. But Noah, a just man, found grace in God, and he and his family were saved. The Ark was their Sanctuary.

That was then and this is now and there is still a place of Sanctuary. The Ark serves as a picture of Jesus Christ and the salvation He provides. 

If you are in the Ark of salvation, you are there because God in mercy and love drew you to Himself. He looked beyond your doomed condition and reached out to you in grace and you believed on Him.

Ephesians 2:4,5 But God, who is rich in mercy for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ (by grace ye are saved).

When God shut the door of the Ark, Noah was safe, on the inside looking out, and the world was on the outside looking in. There was only one door to the Ark, and there is only one way to be saved: through Jesus Christ. 

When God's judgment is poured out one last time on this rebellious earth, the only thing that will matter is which side of the door you are on.
