Walking with God

"It was about these that Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied..."
(Jude 14)

Genesis 5:
Building a Bridge from Adam to Noah

"When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God."
(v.1)

When Adam had lived 130 years, he fathered a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth.

They lived a loooooong time!

"...and he died."

The 7th Generation...

When Enoch had lived 65 years, he fathered Methuselah (v.21).

Enoch walked with God after he fathered Methuselah 300 years and had other sons and daughters (v. 22).

Thus all the days of Enoch were 365 years (v. 23).

Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him
(v. 24).

"one is no more"
(Gen 42.13)

"...I am about to take the delight of your eyes away from you..."

(Ezekiel 24.15, 18).

"By Faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death..."

"...and he was not found, because God had taken him."

"Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God." (Hebrews 11.5).

Enoch's Faith Made a visible difference

Walking means taking one step at a time.
