The night before he like millions to this day, he was groping in darkness, going nowhere, aimlessly marching on the road to an eternal Hell. Apart from the many false teachings about salvation, God's Word and lesson today should encourage your heart. Don't give up on your family if they are not saved yet. Keep praying for them, and be sure to live for Christ before them, and one day God will answer your prayers. Lastly, there is a lesson for us all.
Salvation come to three families, and they all responded by faith.
Noah and his family were saved because they simply believed God and acted upon that revelation. Cornelius the Gentile believed God, and invited his entire family and household to hear and experience the same message of hope he was to hear . And of course the Philippian Jailer's family too. But remember this one thing friend. Salvation is offered full and free, but the offer of God's grace one day will end.
