God's Redemption Story (Genesis)Minta

The world was a pretty rotten place in the days of Noah. Much like today, sin was rampant, and everyone was doing whatever they wanted. God’s heart broke so completely that he made plans to wipe out every living thing. But God saw Noah. Genesis 6:9 tells us Noah was blameless. Notice the Scripture does not say Noah didn’t sin, only that he didn’t carry the blame. According to Hebrews 11:7, Noah’s faith in God allowed him this blameless status. We also have the opportunity to be blameless. We still live under this curse of sin and will always be sinful humans as long as we live on earth. But if we put our faith in Jesus and give our lives over to him, the blood he shed on the cross washes away our blame. Thank you, Jesus, for your sacrifice!
