TRANSCRIPT

Because of this he is obligated to offer sacrifice for his own sins just as he does for those of the people. And no one takes this honor for himself, but only when called by God, just as Aaron was.

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.

- Hebrews 11:6 (NIV)

Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.

- v. 1 (NLT)

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.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.

- v. 5

Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.

- Genesis 5:24

“The test of a man’s religious life and character is not what he does in the exceptional moments of life, but what he does in the ordinary times, when there is nothing tremendous or exciting [going] on. The worth of a man is revealed in his attitude to ordinary things when he is not before the [spotlights].” - Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest
