ENOCH....
Gen 5:21-24
Enoch is one of the most unusual characters in the Word of God....
--Two men in the Bible are said to have walked with God--Enoch and Noah
--Two men left this world without dying--Enoch and Elijah
--Three things happened on his 65th birthday
1. He became a Father....
2. He became a Follower of God....
3. He became a Faithful Preacher....
TONIGHT WE LOOK AT FOUR IMPORTANT THINGS IN THE LIFE
OF ENOCH....
I. HIS TRANSFORMATION....Gen 5:21-22
A. He heard a message....Cp Rom 10:17
-Remember Enoch was about 300 before Adam died....
B. He heeded the message....Heb 11:5-6
C. He heralded the message....Jude 14-15
II. HIS TRANSPORTATION....V 22, Walked With God
A. The Period--wicked days before flood.
B. The Plan--note three things are needful to walk together.
There must be:
1. A meeting place....Blood
2. A marked path....Bible
3. A mutual pace....Blessing
III. HIS TRANSLATION....V 24, God Took Him
A. A trip into God's presence....
B. A type in God's pictures....the rapture
C. A truth in God's prophecy....
-Enoch went up before the flood....
-Lot went out before the fire....
-Elijah went up before the fall....
Enoch is a type of the church going up before the tribulation and
Noah is a type of Israel going thru the tribulation period.
