What does Noah's ark represent in Christian theology?

Answered in 1 source

Noah's ark represents Christ as the refuge from God's judgment and the means of salvation.

In Christian theology, Noah's ark is a profound type of Christ. Just as the ark provided safety for Noah and his family from the flood, Christ serves as the ultimate refuge from the impending judgment due to sin. The ark, built according to God's specific instructions, points to the divine necessity of Christ as the only way to salvation. Those who entered the ark were protected and ultimately saved, paralleling how all who place their faith in Christ are covered by His righteousness and protected from the wrath of God. This typology emphasizes God's redemptive plan throughout scripture.
