“And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.”
The LOrd Jesus Christ told His disciples that they were His friends rather than His servants (See John 15: 13-15). He called them His friends because He told them all things that He had heard from His Father. We can see here that Noah was God’s friend as well because God told Noah what He was going to do. The world was suffering the extreme consequences of their extreme actions and God was just in giving the world what they had chosen. However, God had also made a promise about someone who would come and bruise the serpent’s head. This would never happen if all the people of the world were destroyed in the Flood because there would no longer be any of Eve’s descendants alive on the earth. So God spoke to Noah as His friend. However, the Lord Jesus Christ also said, “ye are my friends if ye do whatsoever I command you. Noah was God’s friend because He did whatsoever the Lord commanded him to do. Noah was also one of the people who called upon the Name of the Lord.
