How does the story of Noah relate to salvation through Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Noah and the ark symbolize Christ, illustrating that salvation can only be found in Him, just as Noah was saved from the flood.

The story of Noah serves as a rich typological narrative pointing to Christ and the salvation He provides. As Noah was commanded to build the ark to save himself and his family from impending judgment, so too does Christ serve as the Ark of Salvation for all who believe. The ark is a picture of Christ; it is the one place where safety from judgment could be found, reflecting that there is no other means of salvation than through Jesus. Just as those outside the ark faced destruction, all who are apart from Christ stand condemned. Noah's obedience in entering the ark with his family illustrates the call for all to come to Christ for refuge from sin and its consequences.
