God's grace preserves believers, as illustrated by Noah finding grace in the eyes of God.
The narrative of Noah in Genesis illustrates the profound truth that God's grace is what separates believers from judgment. Noah, described as a preacher of righteousness, found grace in the eyes of the Lord amidst widespread wickedness (Genesis 6:8). This grace did not merely preserve Noah physically but also spiritually, giving him faith to trust God amidst impending judgment. In a similar manner, God's grace through Jesus Christ preserves those who believe in Him, providing a means of salvation from sin and its consequences. The believer’s assurance rests on God's faithful promise and the substitutionary work of Christ on the cross which secures their redemption (Ephesians 2:8-9).
