Why is the ark significant for Christians today?

Answered in 1 source

The ark is significant for Christians as it symbolizes Christ as the sole means of salvation and God's mercy amidst judgment.

The ark, constructed by Noah as directed by God, serves as a powerful type of Christ for Christians today. It is a reminder that outside of Christ there is judgment and condemnation, but in Him, there is safety and salvation. Just as those who entered the ark were preserved from the flood, all who are in Christ are preserved from eternal judgment. The ark had one door, symbolizing that Christ is the only way to life, affirming Jesus’ statement that He is the way, the truth, and the life. The comprehensive nature of the ark's provision also illustrates that there is ample grace for all who are called, representing the sufficiency of Christ’s atonement.
