A story Christian kids grow up hearing.
I was no exception.
I was weaned on Bible stories.
But today, I heard it for the first time!
Listen!
Finally, the day came when the Lord said to Noah,
"Go into the boat with all your family,
for among all the people of the earth,
I consider you alone to be righteous."
~~ Genesis 7:1 NLT [Emphasis Added] ~~
Did you catch that?
Only Noah was found righteous!
Not his family -
- they rode the ark on Noah's coattails!
Only Noah!
One man!
And God saved him and his family!
Flash forward!
Jesus Christ!
He paid the price for all of us!
But He would have paid the price for only one!
For just you!
For just me!
And we get to ride His coattails into eternity.
Just by climbing aboard.
Amazing!!!
