"Condemned the World"

NOAH by his life of righteousness "condemned the world." Had no one in the days of the antediluvians lived a righteous life, the wicked inhabitants of that degenerate period might have reasoned with some show of plausibility that it was impossible to do right. But the fact that Noah in the midst of abounding wickedness, and with the same human frailties, lived for God, was an evidence that every other person of that period might have done the same, and with equally gratifying results. Thus by the few gathered out of each period of the earth's history will the justice and mercy of God's grace be upheld, in demonstration of the fact that His grace was all-sufficient in every age, in every nation, and under every imaginable combination of circumstances.
