By this time everyone that follows this blog must know that I have no pre-written out line or script as all is done by the seat of my pants under the leadership of the Holy Spirit. I state this because after I posted my last post what did I find but that I had already shared this thought back a year or so ago on FB. Now with that said I will pick it up again with the following: This taken from a writing of Kim Black; "You're the only Bible some will read." No! I'm Christ's letter they read. GOD didn't author the Bible. He's author of my Life!" (2Cor. 3) With that said we are trying to determine how Enoch pleased GOD in his every day walk just as we are to be doing also. In our last post we looked at Hebrews 11:5-6, then jumped backward to Genesis 1:1 to examine the word GOD as it appears there. Then we dropped down the passages to verses 26-28 and then did another words recap of image and likeness and left it there. So lets pick up the flow again at these passages that we have covered already within this same blog many a time. Why because it reveals our origin and it's design as our true Identity, this meaning oneness as defined by Daniel Webster. This being of no accident but rather purpose. Contrary to the falsehood of per-solection as a doctrine of men.
Now back to Hebrews 11:5-6: "By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; And was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. For without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him."
Okay! lets return to Genesis 1:26-28 with the Strong's numbering system activated: Gen 1:26-28 "GodH430 said,H559 'Let us makeH6213 manH120 in Our image,H6754 after Our likeness:H1823 and let them have dominionH7287 over the fishH1710 of the sea,H3220 and over the fowlH5775 of the air,H8064 and over the cattle,H929 and over allH3605 the earth,H776 and over everyH3605 creeping thingH7431 that creepethH7430 uponH5921 the earth.H776' So GodH430 createdH1254 [in Gen. 2:6-7] (H853) manH120 in His Own image,H6754 in the imageH6754 of GodH430 createdH1254 He him; maleH2145 and femaleH5347(in Gen. 2:18, 21-24, 25) createdH1254 He them. And GodH430 blessedH1288 them, and GodH430 saidH559 unto them, 'Be fruitful,H6509 and multiply,H7235 and replenishH4390 (H853) the earth,H776 and subdueH3533 it: and have dominionH7287 over the fishH1710 of the sea,H3220 and over the fowlH5775 of the air,H8064 and over everyH3605 living thingH2416 that movethH7430 uponH5921 the earth.H776'"
What many seem to miss is that which is said in Genesis 2:1-3 as it has to do with there being no one to care for the earth. Lets take a look at it: "Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day GOD ended His work which He had made; And He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it He had rested from all His work which God created and made." Now for verse 5 here is what it says: "And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground."
Now for our word study from verses 1:26-27 of Genesis 1 our first word is number H6213 which the Strong's shows as: H6213
