There was no other place of refuge but the ark that Noah built through Yahveh’s directions. He makes one way of escape, and then the door is closed. Noah’s sons were recipients of salvation because they obeyed their parents.

How do you think Noah looked to the other people? There had never been rain, and yet he and his sons were building the ark. The corrupt masses did everything to defame what looked like lunacy to them. But Noah kept building.

“The coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah” (Matthew 24:37). Only a few will escape. “Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able” .

Our God and Savior is calling us to wholehearted repentance to avert His judgment for breaking His Commandments and statues of righteousness. “For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.”
