The Bible reveals that God's grace is given freely to those who do not deserve it, exemplified in Noah finding grace in the eyes of the Lord (Genesis 6:8).
God's grace is foundational in understanding our relationship with Him, especially given mankind's sinful nature. In Genesis 6:8, we read, 'But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.' This highlights the distinction between those judged for their sins and those whom God chooses to bless despite their unworthiness. Grace is not earned; it is a divine gift, reflecting God's character, as demonstrated by the life of Noah—a man who, despite living in a wicked world, was favored by God. The New Testament further emphasizes God's grace in sending Jesus Christ as a substitute for sinners, making forgiveness possible for those who believe.
