"Enoch: Pleasing to God"
“Enoch: Pleasing to God”
Blessings folk!
The great cloud of witnesses!
We understand the worlds were prepared by the Word of God.
Abel offered a better sacrifice than Cain.
Enoch was pleasing to God.
Enoch walked with God.
Enoch was and was not.
Again, Enoch obtained the witness (of God) that he was pleasing to God.
How was Enoch pleasing to God?
Hebrews 11:5-6
By faith Enoch was taken up so that he would not see death; AND HE WAS NOT FOUND BECAUSE GOD TOOK HIM UP; for he obtained the witness that before his being taken up he was pleasing to God.
And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.
Enoch was pleasing to God “by faith”.
By faith he was taken up.
Enoch is the example of this amazing truth “without faith it is impossible to please Him…”.
We must come to God.
We must believe that He is.
We must believe that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.
We must do so by faith.
If our “relationship” with the Lord is based upon anything other than faith, it is a false relationship.
Seek the Lord, in faith.
Then you will please the Lord, in faith.
