Students
Main Idea: Even when we sin, God provides a way for us to be forgiven (Genesis 6)
Summary
The story of Noah’s Ark is often spun as a kid’s story when in reality, it’s one of the darkest stories in Scripture. Humanity was so evil, dark and sinful, that God chose to wipe them out. This is a reminder to us that while God is merciful and gracious, it only extends to those that call Him Lord and mean it. We must be diligent to share the Good News of Jesus with anyone and everyone so that they too can call Him Lord!
Christ Connection
The story of Noah points to an even greater rescue. As with Noah and the flood, a final judgment for sin is coming when God will condemn unrepentant sinners to eternal death and hell, but all who repent and believe in Jesus will be saved (Romans 10:13).
