Noah Film Perverts The Gospel

And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Acts 2:21 KJV)
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13 KJV)
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. (Acts 4:12 KJV)

The Paramount film Noah (2014), directed by Darren Aronofsky, written by Aronofsky and Ari Handel, is an American film supposedly to be based on the Bible's Noah. However, the film had so many deviations from the Biblical truth that it is actually very different in spirit from the true Noah. Many articles had been written in the Web about how the film is different from the Bible. Here an article from Answers In Genesis that gives a good review on how unfaithful is the Noah film to the Bible truth.

I would like to focus on the stowaway of Tubal-cain in the ark and the drowning of Methuselah in the flood. This is a direct challenge to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The ark is a type of Christ, which signifies salvation of God. "The ark was God's provision for Noah as Christ is God's provision for sinners. (A W Pink)" Anybody who wanted to escape from the flood can come into the Ark. No one need to be a stowaway. Any sinner can come to Christ for repentance and salvation. Nobody, not even Tubal-cain, would be rejected by Christ, if he is willing to repent and come to Him for salvation.

Those who were drowned in the flood typified those who rejected Christ. Noah, a preacher of righteousness (2 Peter 2:5), had preached to them, but they refused to believe. They remained outside the ark and were drowned.

Tubal-cain the stowaway
In the Noah film, Tubal-cain was not allowed to come on board the ark. He had to be stowaway, hiding from Noah. That Tubal-cain had to be a stowaway implies that God’s salvation is not for all, in direct contradiction to the clear promise of God in Acts 2:21 and Romans 10:13.

That there is a successful stowaway in the ark has another significance. It signifies that one day in the New Earth, we will find Tubal-cains, who somehow, can have eternal life by being a stowaway in Christ, bring sin and destruction to the New Earth all over again.

Methuselah drowned
Methuselah was reckoned a righteous man in the sight of God. In the Noah film, Methuselah was shown happily waiting to be drowned in the flood, having lived a very long life, ready to die.There are two interpretations for this, both are unbiblical and wrong.

The flood is a judgement of God on sinners. Being drowned in the flood implies being sent to hell. That Methuselah was drowned implied that a righteous man can go to hell.

An alternative interpretation would be a righteous person who do not trust in Christ can go to heaven. Methuselah was reckoned a righteous man in the sight of God  but he was not in the ark. By showing him outside the ark, happily waiting to be drowned, it implied that there is salvation outside the ark. That also implies there is salvation outside of Christ, in direct contradiction to Acts 4:12.
