The First Mention of Grace in the Bible Will Surprise You
The first time the Bible uses the word grace, the whole world is about to be judged. And grace shows up for one man.
"But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord." (Genesis 6:8)
In this Bible study, Michael Wilson walks through the first mention of grace in Scripture and why that one word "but" changes everything. You will see the world Noah lived in, why Noah found grace instead of earning it, the hidden Hebrew connection between Noah's name and the word grace, and how this same grace leads all the way to Ephesians 2:8 and the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ.
