One thing I found interesting, and still don't understand, is that the people were warned about the flood and invited to get into the Ark to survive it. They weren't required to worship, or even acknowledge God, nor to turn from wickedness. God's invitation for them to enter the Ark and live was completely unconditional. Could anyone reading this post provide some insight into this?
NO, it was NOT completely unconditional. They had to BELIEVE that there was judgment and blessing--which was the WORD of the Lord! They DID NOT believe the WORD of the Lord and thus perished. Had they believed the WORD of the Lord-they would be acknowledging belief in God..... Thus, FAITH was still the condition. Just because there is a universal call, all will not come...., because they do NOT believe..and may not believe for they are not elect, et. al. Noah had a particular calling--he came, etc.
