How does Noah's experience demonstrate covenant grace?

Answered in 1 source

Noah's experience illustrates covenant grace, showing that God's promises are fulfilled through His mercy and chosen means of salvation.

The covenant grace that God established with Noah emphasizes the assurance of salvation provided by divine promise rather than human action. In Genesis 6:18, it is noted that God establishes a covenant with Noah, signifying that His mercy would preserve Noah and his family from destruction. This covenant is not based on Noah's righteousness or actions but rather on God's sovereign choice and grace. It serves as a typological precursor to the New Covenant through Christ, in which believers are secured not through their merit but by the completed work of Jesus. This covenant reflects God's everlasting purpose and is fulfilled in Christ, who is the mediator of a new and better covenant established on better promises.
