挪亚藉着抹松香的方舟，蒙拯救脱离神的审判
挪亚造了一只方舟，内外都抹上松香。松香豫表救赎的血。这样，挪亚就藉着方舟上的松香，蒙拯救脱离神的审判。
挪亚藉着审判的水，蒙拯救脱离被定罪的世界
是甚么拯救挪亚脱离邪恶的世代？是神所差遣审判那邪恶世界的洪水。那审判的洪水把挪亚从那世代分别出来。红海的水埋葬了埃及人，也把以色列人从埃及世界分别出来。洪水也为挪亚作了同样的事。一面洪水审判那邪恶的世代，另一面洪水把挪亚从那世代分别出来。那审判世界的水，拯救挪亚脱离邪恶的世代。因着神完全救恩的两面，挪亚蒙拯救脱离神的定罪，也蒙拯救脱离邪恶的世代。每个真基督徒都知道，血拯救我们脱离神的审判，脱离永远的灭亡。但很少基督徒知道，他们已从这世界的邪恶世代被拯救出来。
世界连同其一切世代都已被神定罪了。世界只有一个，世代却有许多。有古老时尚的世代，也有摩登时尚的世代。一切的世代都被神定罪。全世界乃是一个撒但的系统，把全人类都系统化了。这世界不但有不同的世代，也有不同的部门。在同一世代里有教育、经济、宗教等部门。每一部门都是撒但系统的一部分，为要把人系统化。全世界连同其一切世代和部门，都在神的定罪之下（约十二31，十六11）。
神用甚么拯救我们脱离这被定罪的世界？是用审判这世界的同样东西。神用来审判上古世界的洪水，拯救挪亚脱离那世界。神用来审判埃及人的红海，拯救以色列人脱离埃及人的邪恶权势。神用来审判撒但和他世界的十字架，拯救我们脱离这被定罪的世界。我们是藉着基督审判的十字架蒙拯救的。这十字架在撒但和世界身上执行神的审判。我们是藉着基督救赎的血蒙拯救脱离神的审判（罗五9）。我们已藉着基督审判的死，蒙拯救脱离了被定罪的世界。加拉太一章四节说，“（祂）为我们的罪舍了自己，要把我们从现今这邪恶的世代救出来。”

Noah’s Ark – Saved Through Water (2) – Gal. 1:4
Noah Was Saved from God’s Judgment Through the Pitch-covered Ark
Christ gave Himself for our sins according to the will of our God and Father so that He might rescue us from the present evil age (Gal. 1:4). Noah was saved from God’s judgment through the ark he built and covered inside and out with pitch. The pitch signifies the redeeming blood, and by this covering Noah was protected and saved from God’s judgment.
Noah Was Saved from the Condemned World Through the Water of Judgment
Noah was also saved from the condemned world through the water of judgment. What delivered Noah from that evil generation? It was the flood God sent to judge the world. The judging water separated Noah from that generation. The Red Sea buried the Egyptians and at the same time separated Israel from the Egyptian world. The flood did the same for Noah: it judged the evil generation on the one hand and separated Noah from it on the other. The water that judged the world saved Noah from that world. Through these two aspects of total salvation, Noah was saved both from God’s condemnation and from the evil generation. Every genuine Christian knows that the blood saves us from God’s judgment and eternal perdition, but few realize that we have also been saved out of this evil age.
The world, together with all its generations, has been condemned by God. There is only one world but many generations — ancient, modern, fashionable and traditional. Every generation has been condemned by God. The entire world is a satanic system designed to systematize mankind. Within each generation are various sectors such as education, economy and religion, all of which are parts of Satan’s system to organize humanity. The whole world, with all its generations and sectors, lies under God’s condemnation (John 12:31 & 16:11).
How does God save us from this condemned world? By using the very thing that judges the world. The flood God used to judge the ancient world saved Noah from that world. The Red Sea God used to judge the Egyptians saved Israel from Egypt’s evil power. The cross God used to judge Satan and his world saves us from the condemned world. We are saved from God’s judgment through Christ’s redeeming blood (Rom. 5:9), and we are saved from the condemned world through Christ’s judging death. Thus Galatians 1:4 says that Christ “gave Himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age” (Gal. 1:4).
