Enoch
Genesis 5:24
And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.


I. ENOCH'S CHARACTER. "He walked with God."

II. ENOCH'S END. "He was not" any longer subject to pain, sickness, infirmity, sorrow; all of which are still the portion even of those who walk with God in this vale of tears. "He was not" any longer tempted by Satan, by the world, by his own fallen nature, to sin against his kind Friend and Saviour; and thus his heaviest burden is removed. "He was not" any more "vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked," with the dishonour cast on his God, with the "triumphing of the wicked." "He was not" spared to see their ungodliness proceeding to that gigantic pitch, which at length brought upon them the flood of waters to destroy all the earth.

(J. Jowett, M. A.)
