There They Crucified Him

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 15, 2024

Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Nov 20, 2002

“AND ENOCH WALKED WITH GOD” “And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.” Genesis 5:24 I. "And Enoch walked with God". 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
