Sometimes the bible gives us a preview of things to come, with Enoch this may have been the case. "By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death". Join Pastor Wes Morris of the Rock Church Fenton for this weeks message from the book of Hebrews.

Hebrews 11:5-6 (NIV)
5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not
be found, because God had taken him away.”[a] For before he was taken, he was commended as one
who pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes
to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
Acts 4:12 (NIV)
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind
by which we must be saved.”

Instructions for Christian Living
17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the
Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18 They are darkened in their understanding and
separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of
their hearts. 19 Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so
as to indulge in every kind of impurity, and they are full of greed.
Ephesians 4:30-32 (NIV)
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of
redemption. 31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with
every form of malice. 32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just
as in Christ God forgave you.
Colossians 2:6 (NIV)
Spiritual Fullness in Christ
6 So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him,
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (NIV)
16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the
archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After
that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to
meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.
