How do we know God's grace was sovereign in Noah's salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Noah's salvation was a result of God's sovereign grace, as stated in Genesis 6:8 where it says, 'Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.'

God's sovereign grace is evident in Noah's salvation as indicated in Scripture. Genesis 6:8 explicitly states that 'Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord,' signifying that it was not due to Noah's merit or actions but entirely based on God's undeserved favor. This emphasizes the Reformed understanding that salvation is not a human initiative but a divine choice, reinforcing that God elects individuals for salvation out of His own counsel and goodness. Noah's selection among a perverse generation illustrates the reality of God's grace interrupting human rebellion, demonstrating that salvation has its origin in God's sovereignty, not in human effort.
