A Date to Remember. Genesis 7:1-24 We begin today with the first gospel invitation in the Bible. The word "come" is used some 1,972 times in the Bible. Gen. 7:1 is the first time it is used as a command and as an invitation. Here, God calls Noah and his family to come into the Ark so that they might be saved from the flood of water that He is about to send upon the earth. This invitation has my interest today. Even though it was given thousands of years ago, God is still inviting people to enter an Ark of safety. I would like to take this invitation and show you that it still stands today. I would also like to show you that this invitation will do you no good unless you accept and come in. Before Noah and his family could be saved they had to commit themselves to accepting the Lord's invitation to enter the Ark. If you and I are going to be saved, then we have to commit to accepting His invitation as well. Jesus experienced the wrath of God when He was on the cross. The fires of God's judgment burned at Calvary and those who have come to Jesus have come to a place where the judgment has already fallen. One day the wrath of God will come on every nation and every person. The only escape is Jesus our ark of safety. The door stands open now; it will close soon; which side will you be on when it does?
