And Enoch Walked With God

Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Nov 20, 2002

To be able to walk with God one must know who He is and to walk humbly before Him. Enoch’s translation without seeing physical death is typical of the translation of living saints which will occur at the rapture of the church.

One cannot walk with God without first having a true knowledge of who He is, what He demands and what He desires of us. 1. Who He is: The Almighty God who ...read more

We Were Formed For Fellowship

Contributed by Greg Nance on Mar 1, 2013

How did God design us? He wants us to gather together in faithful fellowship groups that lead us to the fullness of Christ. Our friendships will impact us for faith or not. We must make choices of fellowship on purpose.

We were formed for fellowship. When God created Adam the Bible tells us that God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone, I will make a helper suitable for him.” Genesis 2:18. This was the first time that, after God created anything, he looked at it and said that it is NOT good. ...read more
