Hebrews 11.5-6
The Walk of Faith

    Gen 1-2                God is a God of life
      Gen 3                    Something bad happened
      Gen 4                    Sin and death abounded
      Gen 5                    …and he died…

B. HOW DID ENOCH ESCAPE DEATH AND FIND LIFE?

C. BUT…HOW? BY FAITH!

    1.  Faith that God IS

    2.  Faith that God CARES

    3.  Faith that God is GOOD

            This is the true bride of Christ, who says to Him,
                    I seek not what is Yours, but You Yourself.
            You are not more dear to me when things go well,
                    nor less dear when things go poorly.              [Martin Luther]

    4.  The walk of faith:  pleasing and enjoying Christ
