Tullian Tchividjian reminds us again that we don’t read the Bible to be inspired by heroes to emulate in order to know the blessings of God, but instead we seek to learn how those in our hall of fame responded to the grace they were shown.
“But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord” (Genesis 6:8).
Some read this and make it sound like God is scouring the earth to find someone — anyone — who is righteous. And then one day, while searching high and low, God sees Noah and breathes a Divine sigh of relief. “Phew… there’s at least one.” But that’s not what it says.
