The Bible gives an accurate record. Noah is one of the first great men of faith revealed in scripture in which his life is given in some detail. Someone said the Bible is about God revealing himself through the lives of faithful men and women. Those lives still speak to us today. Faith is better understood as we see it in the lives of great men.
Bible truths become clearer when they breath.
Faith a Response to Revelation Through the life of Noah we learn that faith is a response to revelation. Noah gives us a striking example of what faith means. Out of the blue he was told about a cataclysmic flood and he believed God. A little old lady had, for years, been thoroughly overcome by all kinds of troubles and trials in life. Her family had done all they could for her, but nothing seemed to help.
