    Title: like the life of Enoch that pleased God.

    Genesis 5:21-24

    21 Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah. 22 After he begot Methuselah,

    Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters. 23 So all

    the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. 24 And Enoch walked

    with God; and he was not, for God took him.25 Methuselah

    Hebrews 11:5-6

    5 By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, and was not found,

    because God had taken him;[a] for before he was taken he had this testimony, that

    he pleased God. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes

    to God must believe that He is, and thatHe is a rewarder of those who diligently

    seek Him.

    Enoch in todays Scriptures begot his son Methuselah when he was 65 years old and

    after he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God 300 years and had sons and

    daughters.

    If he had sons and daughters for 300 years while he walked with God, he must had

    many sons and daughters, not just one or two, right?

    As we see this fact, we know that people with many children who say they are too

    busy accompanying their children are just making excuses for themselves.

    The conclusion of Enochs life was that 24 And Enoch walked with God; and he was

    not, for God took him.

    Genesis 5:24

    24 And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.

    Walking with God is not an easy thing to do. Even walking with people who have high status in this

    world is not easy, do you think walking with God the Creator is easy to follow? It is needless to say how

    difficult it is.

    Walking together cannot be achieved unless two are agreed.

    Amos 3:3

    3 Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?

    If two people do not agree then they cannot walk together.

    Enoch showed us for certain that man can go to heaven without witnessing death.

    Hebrews 11:5-6

    5 By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, and was not found,

    because God had taken him;[a] for before he was taken he had this testimony, that

    he pleased God. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes

    to God must believe that He is, and thatHe is a rewarder of those who diligently

    seek Him.

    Jesus too talked about the world without death.

    John 11:25-26

    25Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me,

    though he may die, he shall live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall neverdie. Do you believe this?27 She

    Faith does not know impossibility and therefore we should do all things by faith.

    Marriage, marriage life, hearing the Word of God and all other things, we must do

    by faith.

    In the midst of faith that believes in the Word of God there is no I.

    When we do not have faith we still have our ego and my thoughts, my ideas, my

    opinions and stubbornness.

    If my thoughts get into the work of God, I will be destroyed for generation after

    generation and the result is the ticket to hell.

    What the Bible is teaching us is only the Word of God, only the thoughts of God and

    the will of God.

    Please do all things by faith and cast away your own thoughts.

    My thoughts are deem to be destroyed and cannot be achieved.

    In Hebrews Chapter 11, as the Bible introduces to us the father of faith, it

    repeatedly says by faith.

    By faith Moses divided the Red Sea, by faith he stopped rain and by faith he let therain fall from the sky.

    In Hebrews, the Bible explains the reason why Enoch was taken up to heaven

    without seeing death.

    Hebrews 11:5

    5 By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, and was not found,

    because God had taken him;[a] for before he was taken he had this testimony, that

    he pleased God.

    It means Enoch was taken up from the earth to heaven without seeing death. And

    he had this testimony that he pleased God before he was taken. This testimony was

    faith.

    I believe you too if you have the testimony that you pleased God while you dwell on

    this earth will be taken up to heaven without seeing death.

    Have you lived a life that pleased God as you believe in God until this day?

    If you have a small trouble and if your feelings are hurt, did you not talk bad about

    church and the man of God?

    Such work is not the work of believers with faith.

    If anything does not go well and if business is ruined, then that is because you have

    no faith.

    Mark 9:23

    23Jesus said to him, If you can believe,[a] all things are possible to him who

    believes.24 Immediately

    What did Jesus say to Thomas who could not believe Jesusresurrection?

    Jesus said, Do not be unbelieving, but believing.

    John 20:27

    27Then He said to Thomas, Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and

    reach your hand here, and put itinto My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing.

    Hebrews 11:6

    . 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must

    believe that He is, and thatHe is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

    If you do not have faith you cannot be rewarded.

    The reward which God gives is not the reward made of paper. It is the everlasting life and peace.

    In the joint translation Bible, it says Enoch had this testimony, he was acknowledged by God he pleased

    God.

    Before we leave this world, we must be acknowledged by God we pleased God.

    The thing that pleases God is not power nor honour, it is not money nor knowledge.

    Only by faith one can please God.

    Job said not wisdom, nor righteousness nor blameless ways of man cannot please God.

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+9&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-24558ahttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+9&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-24558ahttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+9&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-24558ahttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+9&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-24558a

    Job 22:2-3

    Can a man be profitable to God,Though he who is wise may be profitable to himself?

    3

    Is itany pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous?Or is itgain to Him that you make your ways blameless?

    The only thing that can please God is faith and faith cannot be bought with money.

    You cannot obtain faith by your good background or by bribing.

    If you please God He will grant you what you desire.

    Psalm 37:4

    4 Delight yourself also in the LORD,And He shall give you the desires of your heart.

    Here, it says if we delight ourselves in the Lord, He shall give us the desires of our heart.

    And Enoch pleased God so that he was granted the desire of his heart which was transfiguration.

    Why can you not believe this Word of God for certain?

    If you please God, He answers your prayer.

    Job 22:26-27

    26 For then you will have your delight in the Almighty,And lift up your face to God.

    27 You will make your prayer to Him,He will hear you,And you will pay your vows.

    If you please God the Almighty, then there is nothing you cannot do or achieve.

    The thing in which God pleases is not our good looking faces nor our great wealth.It is not the power that can shake the whole world.

    God only wants faith that believes in God and is pleased only by faith.

  • 7/29/2019 Title 81

    I bless you with the name of the Lord all of you who are accepting this Word of Godbecome such man of faith.

    We truly need to believe in God properly.

    In this world, if we flatter and butter up or sometimes buy with money, there isnothing we cannot do, but for God, such things dont work.

    With His eyes that are like flames, God is watching our heart.

    With true heart are you relying on Me by faith? Are you praising Me and givingthanks to Me with true heart?

    God is weighing our heart on the scale.

    That is why God was able to make the verdict ofMENE,[d] MENE, TEKEL,[e]UPHARSIN

    Daniel 5:25-27

    25And this is the inscription that was written:

    MENE,[d] MENE, TEKEL,[e] UPHARSIN.[f]

    26 This is the interpretation ofeach word. MENE: God has numbered your kingdom,and finished it; 27 TEKEK: You have been weighed in the balances, and foundwanting;

    And God divided the king and the nation on that night.

    The saints of God who live in the end days shall rejoice in the Lord, the Bible says.

    Philippians 3:1

    1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. For me to write the same things to youis not tedious, but for you it is safe.

    Philippians 4:4

    4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!

    Nehemiah 8:10

    10Then he said to them, Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and sendportions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Donot sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.

    It says the joy of the Lord is your strength. Faith becomes our strength and power.If only we had faith, there is nothing we cannot do or achieve.

    With what power Moses divided the Red Sea that was blocking the way of thechildren of Israel?

    It was indeed the power of faith.

    By faith Moses stretched out his hand that was holding the staff and the Red Seawas divided.

    Exodus 14:21-22

    21 Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea togo backby a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land, andthe waters were divided. 22 So the children of Israel went into the midst of the seaon the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and ontheir left.

    Although Moses was a human just like us, when he stretched out his hand over thesea by faith, 360 km/h of strong wind blew on the Sea and made the see stand likea wall.

    Not only the wind made the water stand like a wall, but also it dried the wet bottomof the sea so that they could walk on dry land.

    Faith brings about such amazing works and therefore faith is a precious thing.

    Because we have no faith we are living on this dirty wet land day and night, but ifwe had faith that believes in God then we get to live on fluffy dry land all the time.

    Why do you put powder on babys buttocks?

    To make them fluffy and dry, right?

  • 7/29/2019 Title 81

    8/15

    If you do not put powder on them, they might have blisters, that is why, right?

    If there is no faith in life, all our life becomes sticky and have blisters all over and it

    becomes dirty and smelly life, but if there is faith the life becomes fluffy.

    Faith is that precious.

    Even there is a hymn singing,faith overcomes, faith overcomes, right?

    Do you believe this? Yes, Father, I believe. How good it is!

    I hope you believe this for certain, the joy of the Lord is your strength.

    With all our hearts, all our souls and mind and strength, with all such things webelieve in the Lord, that is the joy of Lord and is our strength.

    For the joy of the Lord is the secret to be taken up to heaven without seeing death,God gave us the three great commands in 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

    16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is thewill of God in Christ Jesus for you.

    Although you are in a situation you cannot rejoice and give thanks, if you rejoicealways, pray without ceasing and give thanks in everything, all your troubles andproblems will be solved and the situation you are in improves and gets better. Thisis the promise of God.

    As we live in this sinful world, the temptation of sin swarm over us like waves of thesea, however, if we pray without ceasing, prayer becomes our shield and protectsus.

    The prayer becomes our shield that blocks the waves and wind for us.

    You could not rejoice always, could you? Have you prayed without ceasing? No,right? Because you could not give thanks in everything, you could not please God.

    If so, then how dreadful it is!

  • 7/29/2019 Title 81

    9/15

    Because you can go to heaven without seeing death only if you pleased God, andyou could not please God, then you must see death, right?

    Please understand deeply and keep the three great commands.

    That is exactly the work of faith and the work that pleases God.

    My beloved saints, how are you going to live and where will you go in the end?

    The Apostle Peter is talking about the basic problem of our life.

    1 Peter 1:17

    17 And if you call on the Father, who without partiality judges according to eachones work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your stayhere in fear;

    James 4:14

    14 whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It iseven a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

    Fogs are gone as soon as the Sun is up.

    We live like clouds in the sky, but if the wind blows we are all vanished away.

    When that happens, where will we go?

    Conduct yourselves throughout the time of your stay here in fear means we oughtto know our destination.

    You and I are same human and there is not much difference in our lifestyles,however, each of us has different ending.

    Please remember Jesuswarning parable.

    Matthew 24:40-44

    40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. 41 Twowomen will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. 42 Watchtherefore, for you do not know what hour[f] your Lord is coming. 43 But know this,that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he

    10/15

    would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 Therefore youalso be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

    Although they are in the field together and are grinding at the mill together, theirends are different.

    One of them will be taken and the other left. Such moment will come.

    If so, then shouldnt we think about whether I am the one like Enoch who will betaken or the one who will be left?

    The rest of our days are truly a short time.

    We see actors, actresses and singers commit suicide. We see wealthyentrepreneurs commit suicide. Why are they killing themselves?

    Because they foresaw their futility and life in vain.

    Although their beginnings were the same, their ends were different, the Bible istestifying this fact.

    Enoch was from the line of Seth and he was the seventh generation from Adam.

    Lamech was from the line of Cain and he was also the seventh generation from

    Adam.

    Let us compare the ends of Enoch and Lamech.

    Do they not show the difference of heaven and earth?

    Enoch became the man who bore the fruit of transfiguration for the first time in thehistory of mankind, but Lamech became the ancestor of the wicked who challengeGod.

    Lamech developed all kinds of civilization and became a man who enjoyed murderand pleasure habitually.

    They are both the same seventh generation of Adam, however, Enoch who wasfrom the line of Seth that descended down by faith became the man of heaven, butLamech from the line of Cain became the man of earth. Right?

  • 7/29/2019 Title 81

    11/15

    The lives of Enoch and Lamech had such contrasting ends.

    Enochs end who was from the line of Seth that walked the path of faith and theend of Lamech who walked the path of the world were totally different.

    The difference we see between Enoch and Lamech is the difference between theone with Gods covenant and the one without Gods covenant.

    Only if you have Gods covenant your name is registered in the genealogy of eternallife and that name is not faded for ever.

    Accordingly, children of God who have Gods covenant in them cannot engage inmarriage with people without Gods covenant.

    The sons of daughters of God who have the Word of God in them cannot be onewith those who do not have either Gods covenant or genealogy.

    No matter how wealthy that person may be and how powerful the person may be,you should never marry the one who does not have God s covenant.

    Deuteronomy 7:3-4

    3 Nor shall you make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to theirson, nor take their daughter for your son. 4 For they will turn your sons away from

    following Me, to serve other gods; so the anger of the LORD will be aroused againstyou and destroy you suddenly.

    2 Corinthians 6:14-16

    14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship hasrighteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? 15And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with anunbeliever? 16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you[b] arethe temple of the living God. As God has said:

    I will dwell in themAnd walk among them.I will be their God,

    Andthey shall be My people.[c]

    Did we not study in our Bible studies how the children of God were destroyedbecause they married the people who did not have Gods covenant?

    We studied how they were destroyed by God and their names got erased from thegenealogy of Christ, didnt we?

    Wrong marriage cannot ever be undone.

    If we bought something defected, then we can always return it and exchange itwith a new one, however, marriage cannot be returned and exchanged to a newone.

    Ephesians 5:11

    11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather exposethem.

    People who have Gods covenant are the fruitful people.

    Therefore, people who received Gods covenant should not participate in the worldlyworks and purify themselves and fear God and complete the godly life.

    Please do not forget that we must live only by faith as we have the testimony that

    pleases God.

    That is why in Romans 8:5

    . 5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of theflesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

    . 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law ofGod, nor indeed can be.

    In doing Gods work, whether you are a reverend, elder or decons or deaconess,you should not have the thoughts of flesh.

    People who possess faith are the wealthiest people on earth.

    Please believe that people who possess faith are recorded in the book of life for

    ever.

    If you believe in God, then you become close friend with God so that God tells youall His secrets.

    Do you keep secrets between friends? Is there anything you cannot tell your friend?

  • 7/29/2019 Title 81

    13/15

    Likewise, the life that walks with God, when you truly believe in God, God tells youall His secrets.

    Psalm 25:14

    14 The secret of the LORD is with those who fear Him,And He will show them His covenant.

    To those who fear God, God is so close to them to the point that God tells all Hissecrets that were hidden before.

    Look how God told Abraham His secret.

    In the Joint Translation Bible, it says,

    God confesses His thoughts to those who fear Him and tells them His plans.

    If we fear God we can know all that is in God s heart.

    When Noah feared God, God told him all the secrets regarding the judgment.

    Genesis 7:4

    4 For after seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty

    nights, and I will destroy from the face of the earth all living things that I havemade.

    God is the God of righteousness and justice and God of fairness.

    God of Noah, God of Abraham will do the same to us as well.

    The Psalmist said14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;

    Psalm 89:14

    14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;Mercy and truth go before Your face.

    Psalm 97:2

    2 Clouds and darkness surround Him;Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

    We who are living in the time near the end, it is only for a short time on this earth.

    That is why we cannot live longer than even a 100 years, right?

    What will we take back when we leave this world?

    Do we not bury everything underground when we leave?

    However, the spirit which God gave us, only that spirit will go and in heaven andwhen Christ comes again to this land, the spirit will meet body and be transfigured.

    When our dead body is buried underground and decomposes, it seems nothing isleft of our body, however, when God calls, decomposed body that had returned toatoms all gather together.

    The prophet Ezekiel spoke of such thing.

    Ezekiel 37:7-11

    So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, andsuddenly a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 Indeed, as Ilooked, the sinews and the flesh came upon them, and the skin covered them over;but there was no breath in them.9Also He said to me, Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to thebreath, Thus says the Lord GOD: Come from the four winds, O breath, andbreathe on these slain, that they may live.10 So I prophesied as He commanded

    me, and breath came into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, anexceedingly great army.11Then He said to me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel.They indeed say, Our bones are dry, our hope is lost, and we ourselves are cut off!

    25Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me,though he may die, he shall live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall neverdie. Do you believe this?

    I want you to answer yes to this question.

    My beloved saints, how good it is if we could participate in the glorious secondcoming of Christ while we are still alive and without seeing death!

    By all means, live the life that walks with God and finally obtain and enjoy theeverlasting life.

    Please do not bemoan just because you are not wealthy.

    With what God made the universe and all things in it?

    God said, with only single Word of God, God created the universe and all things.

    That is why when we uphold the Word of God we become the wealthiest people inthe heaven above and on earth and if we only have the Word of God, there isnothing we cannot do.

    People of the Word of God becomes Gods sons and daughters. I hope you believethis and every day and every hour please God and live the life that walked with Godlike Enochs life and become the fruits of light that are taken up to heaven withoutwitnessing death.

    I bless you with the name of the Lord.
