The main idea of Pastor Joseph Aranza's message was to teach us the importance of obedience to God, using the story of Noah as a powerful example. He explained that obedience is about aligning our actions with God's will, regardless of our understanding or the cost. Pastor Joseph emphasized that the true order of obedience is revelation followed by action, not waiting for full understanding. He shared that obedience requires trust, as seen in Noah's willingness to build an ark without knowing what rain or a flood was. Pastor Joseph also highlighted that obedience requires action, as Noah did everything God commanded. Lastly, he pointed out that obedience leaves a legacy, impacting not just us but future generations. He encouraged us to act on God's word and trust Him fully.
