Calvary Chapel Lake of the Ozarks Calvary Chapel Lake of the Ozarks

Just as God made a covenant with Noah and the sign of the rainbow…we have a covenant with Jesus Christ by His blood. Have you entered into a covenant with Jesus, by His blood? 

God told Noah when to go into the ark, but he did not tell him when he should come out again. The Lord told Noah when to go in, for it was necessary for him to know that; but he did not tell him when he should come out, for it was unnecessary that he should know that. God always lets his people know what is practically for their good.

The promise of the cross is that my old life is dead and gone, I have new life through the Spirit of Christ living in me, by grace through faith, because of His love and sacrifice, I have the righteousness of Christ! 

Just as God provided a way for Noah and his family to be saved in the ark, He also has provided a way for us to be saved through Jesus Christ. And we can walk just as Noah, righteous and blameless…because we are IN CHRIST!

Paul modeled, and we should adopt, the attitude of an under-rower.

Man is appointed mortal sorrowful, the blessed God shall come down, teaching, his death shall bring the despairing rest and comfort.
