Scriptures: Genesis 5:21-24, Jude 1:14-15, Hebrews 11:5-6
Title: Enoch who had the testimony of faith by walking with God.
We are going to examine deeply about Enochs life through the Word of God today. When we look up
Scriptures regarding Enoch, it is not long.
There are only three places in the Old and the New Testaments that mentions about Enoch.
Genesis 5:21-24, Hebrews 11:5-6 and Jude 1:14-15.
Although there are many Scriptures and pages in the Bible, Scriptures that record about Enoch are short.
However, from Gods redemptive historical point of view, these Scriptures that mention about Enoch
take up the largest share in Gods redemption.
The record about Enoch in the Bible is short. However, in that short record contained is the enormous
significance in the history of redemption.
If it is weighed, it is very heavy weight.
Todays title is Enoch who had the testimony of faith by walking with God.
There are only two places in the Bible that says Enoch Walked with God. That is Genesis 5:22, and
Genesis 5:24; Enoch walked with God.
And in Genesis 6:9, when Bible is talking about life of Noah, it also says, Noah walked with God.
In Malachi 2:5-6, the prophet Malachi is saying regarding the life of priests and religious leaders at the
time, 5 My covenant was with him, one of life and peace,
And I gave them to him that he mightfear Me;
So he feared Me
And was reverent before My name.6 The law of truth[a] was in his mouth,
And injustice was not found on his lips.
He walked with Me in peace and equity,
And turned many away from iniquity.
Also, prophet Micah in Micah 6:8, it says,8 He has shown you, O man, what is
good;
And what does the LORD require of you
But to do justly,

To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?
The secret we can walk with God,
-pleasing God with faith. It is in Hebrews 11:6
-and secondly, walking with God by giving thanks.
If there is no giving thanks to God, there is no faith and there is nothing.
Can you walk with God without thanksgiving?
Giving thanks does not want something in return. How much will you pay me since
I walked with you? There is no such thing in thanksgiving. Psalmist says.
Even this service, if youve come here because of someone begging you to come to
this 3rd service. Come on, lets go to 3rd service today. Today, Reverends going to
preach deep, meaningful sermon.
Those of you who came here dragged like that, youre wrong. You dont have
thanksgiving heart.
Even in worship, there must be thanksgiving.
Psalm 50:14, it says,14 Offer to God thanksgiving,
And pay your vows to the Most High.
Psalm 50:23, it says, 23 Those who sacrifice thank offerings honor me,
and to the blameless[d]I will show my salvation.
By thanksgiving, please listen carefully, Those who sacrifice thank offerings honour me.
When you worship God, God most delights in those of you who give thanks.
To those who sacrifice thank offerings I will certainly show my salvation.
Always pray, praise and give thanks. These three dont stop. Not only when you come to church, but also
in your family, work, you give thanks to God all the time.
When you wake up in the morning, give thanks to God for your eyes, good vision, that you can see.
Give thanks to God for your health that you dont have headache or migraine and your body is well.
Today, I met the saints of our church, our reverend and our evangelist and coming to church and going
out to have dinner together. How grateful!
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2050&version=NIV#fen-NIV-14692dhttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2050&version=NIV#fen-NIV-14692dhttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2050&version=NIV#fen-NIV-14692dhttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2050&version=NIV#fen-NIV-14692d7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011

If I have a stomachache or somethings wrong with my internal organ, then I cant have dinner with
someone, right? So when I have meal, I give thanks to God. God thank you. Giving thanks to God.
That is why we must always pray and praise God and give thanks to God without ceasing.
,God says in Psalm 37:4
4 Delight yourself also in the LORD,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Before that, did you have thanksgiving, praise and prayer? Delight in the Lord.
Job 22:26 is the same. 26 The poor shall eat and be satisfied;
Those who seek Him will praise the LORD.
Let your heart live forever!
How do we delight ourselves? In the Lord.
Not because of power or money or because someone gave you a job, but in the
Lord! Delight yourself in the Lord!
This is Isaiah 58:14, Philippians 3:3, 4:4.
14 Then you shall delight yourself in the LORD;
And I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth,
And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father.
The mouth of the LORD has spoken.
1
Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. For me to write the same things to youis not tedious, but for you it is safe.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!
I am not eating for about 2 days now. I don t even eat lunch. Prayer of vows it is
very tiring.
I must eat in order to gain some energy, but since I could only drink water, my
mouth is dried even when I talk a little.
Rejoice in the Lord.
That is why the prophet Nehemiah said, in Nehemiah 8:10, 10 Then he said to them,
Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom
nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of
the LORD is your strength.

God gave us the grace of good health. If you are healthy, you gain strength. And in
gratitude of Gods grace of health, you can please God by praise, prayer, reading
Scriptures, giving thanks and helping others.
Is this not grace? The grace of God. That is why we can rejoice in God.
It says the joy of the Lord is your strength, it is in Nehemiah 8:10.
What happens if we are overflowing with thanksgiving? We rejoice.
If we are overflowing with thanksgiving, then the grace of God never departs from
the head of that family and from the head of that individual.
The grace of God is always hovering over.
That is why youre blessed when you go out and youre blessed when you come in.
Deuteronomy Chapter 28.
Psalm 121:8, 8 The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.
That house is giving thanks without ceasing. Even if you have a cancer, try praying
to God with true thanksgiving heart.
Before you even realize it, cancer is gone.
There are two purposes that Jesus came to earth.
To cleanse us from our sins and to save us.
Second is, because of sin disease and illness came upon mankind, right? Jesus
came to take all those diseases and illnesses away from us. To take them back and
to be responsible for us. It is stated in Matthew 8:16.
Is the Scripture Matthew 8:16 a lie? No. Its just that we cannot believe it and we
dont know it. We must believe it.
That is why in Ephesians 5:20, 20 giving thanks always for all things to God the
Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Second, Colossians 2:7
7 rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught,
abounding in it[b] with thanksgiving.
Third, Colossians 4:2
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Colossians+2&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-29498bhttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Colossians+2&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-29498bhttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Colossians+2&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-29498bhttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Colossians+2&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-29498b7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011

2 Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving;
Whenever you pray, you cannot give thanks to God. Without earnest heart, you just
give thanks just because others told you to do so?
If you have thanksgiving heart, then you become voluntary.
And next, when you give out something, you say, I ll give you this, right?
However, the true meaning is God is giving and Jesus is giving. Grace and truth
belongs to God, right?
If I did not receive the grace of God and I do not realize God s grace, then can I
help others? Can I give help to others?
This is the money I made without even sleeping.
Not having sleep too is Gods grace and working is also Gods grace and thinking ofothers too is Gods grace. And therefore when you give yours to someone whos in
need, youre not the one whos giving, but it is Jesus who is giving out to that
someone.
That is why in Colossians 3:17, it says, please repeat after me,17 And whatever
you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God
the Father through Him.
Whatever you do in word or deed. Even our words we speak are also God s grace.
How good it is! Such people dont have diseases or illness.
Ok, please listen carefully.
The seventh generation of Adam is Enoch. Adam is the first generation.
Enoch is the seventh. When we say the seventh generation from Adam, it is Enoch.
It is stated in Jude 1:14. 14 Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about
these men also, saying, Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints,
The father of Enoch is Jared. He lived until he was 962 years old. As it is stated in
Genesis 5:18, 18 Jared lived one hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch.
And the son of that Enoch, Enoch begot Methuselah when he was 65 years old.
However, there is no record of Enoch before he was 65 years old. However, when
Enoch repented about his sins and begot Methuselah, as soon as he begot
Methuselah he received Gods revelation regarding the Lords second coming and
the judgment by flood in the time of Noah.
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
6/23
He could not help but be startled! He was startled and amazed. He received this
revelation.
Enoch begot Methuselah. As soon as he had Methuselah he received the revelation
of Jesussecond coming and the judgment of the world and the judgement by flood
in Noahs time.
It almost made him faint. It is incomprehensive Scripture in the Bible. The 7th book
of Gods redemptive series will reveal this secret. I am telling you in advance.
Genesis 5:21
21 Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah.
Genesis 5:22
22 After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had
sons and daughters.
As we all know, Enoch was a special character. From Adam to Noah the tenth
generation, the Bible records and he died 9 times.
However, for Enoch, there is no he died. It says Enoch was not, for God took him.
Genesis 5:5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 28, 31, 9:29. All died. Only Enoch was taken up.
Genesis 5:24,24 And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.
However, in Hebrews 11:5, it says,5 By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did
not see death, and was not found, because God had taken him;[a] for before he
was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
Please listen carefully.
Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death.
The Bible says the reason for that was this one thing: Enoch walked with God.
In Modern Peoples Bible, Genesis 5:24 reads; as he lived while he was having an
intimate relationship with God, he disappeared for God took him.
It says; Enoch had intimate relationship with God while he walked with God.
Walking with God. The prophet Amos said, lets say I am walking with this
gentleman here.
If he doesnt agree with me and if I dont agree with him, can we walk together?
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+11&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-30174ahttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+11&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-30174ahttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+11&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-30174ahttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+11&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-30174a7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
7/23
No, we cant.
Prophet Amos said, two cannot walk together unless they agree. Unless two hearts
are in harmony it is impossible to walk together.
In Chinese Character, it isEuimeans will andHapmeans to unite.
Unless two personswill and heart are united, they cannot walk with each other.
When two personswill and heart are united they can walk together and give and
take from each other and can have meals together and can have relationship and
can run a business together.
If two hearts cannot be united, then two cannot walk together.
And therefore, God and Enoch always united. They shared many secrets each other.
As I always say, in Acts 13:22, it says,
22 And when He had removed him, He raised up for them David as king, to whom
also He gave testimony and said, I have found David[c] the son of Jesse, a man
after Myownheart, who will do all My will.
And what does God wants from us? It is stated in Micah 6:8. Please do not forget
forever.
Micah 6:8
8 He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the LORD require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?
If God has a wish and God says,I have one thing required of you mankind, first
of all, humble yourselves. And second thing is to walk with Me. Walking with your
God.
The focus of todays Scriptures is since when did Enoch walk with God?
After he begot Methuselah.
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+13&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-27381chttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+13&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-27381chttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+13&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-27381chttp://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+13&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-27381c7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
8/23
Enoch lived 65 years in the world before he had Methuselah, but how he lived
during those 65 years? There is no record of Enoch in the Bible before he was 65
years old.
After he begot Methuselah when he was 65 years old, from that time on Enoch
walked with God.
The secret which God gave to Enoch was enormous. It was enormous. Enoch saw
the second coming of Jesus. He even saw the judgement of the world by flood in
Noahs time.
And God told him,Shut your mouth until the time comes.
So, after Enoch begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God for 300 years! 300, 300,
300 years of walking with God!
Enoch walked with God right after he begot Methuselah. If so, then it is the
question of common sense, do you think Enoch did not fully repent his sins that he
committed for 65 years? Before he walked with God?
Do you not think he repented his sins completely?
If you understand the meaning, please listen carefully, you get goose bumps,
goose bumps.
I was startled on the Mount Jiri (Jirisan). I had goose bumps. I trembled in fear.
And it means as soon as Enoch begot his son Methuselah, God showed him Jude
1:14-15 which is the second coming of Christ, isnt it? And next, God said to Enoch,
Methuselah will live upto 969 years old and when he dies, the end will come. The
flood will come.
Enoch was astonished. He was amazed and startled.
Enoch repented his sins he sinned for 65 years completely and thoroughly and
while he walked with God for 300 years, please listen carefully, he had sons and
daughters.
In Enochs time, there were thousands and thousands of man who had sons and
daughters. However, it is entirely different level.
If Enoch had sons and daughters and if his sons and daughters did not receive the
Word of God and Gods revelation and Gods covenants and if they did not believe
them and sinned against God, do you think God would walk with Enoch?
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
9/23
For 300 years he had sons and daughter while he walked with God.
My heart is pounding and I get goose bumps. Many other people of the time had
sons and daughters, but God is not interested in them.
God has no interest in them.
Enoch repented his sins that he sinned for 65 years completely and thoroughly
from beginning to end, even to the tiniest sin that he committed and now he is
after Gods own heart.
He had sons and daughters. Do you think his sons and daughter could have the
same faith as their father?
Do you think children can have the faith of their parents?
It was absolute obedience. When God saw Enoch, he was after Gods own heart.
When the Scripture says, Enoch walked with God for 300 years and he had sons
and daughters, it means Enochs sons and daughters were all in the attention of
God just like Enoch was.
It is amazing. What about before? Before Enoch was 65 years old, Enoch was
occupied with thoughts of the flesh. He had no spiritual world.
However, as soon as he begot Methuselah, he walked with God.
Enoch lived 308 years together with Adam. Adam told Enoch all the stories of the
world before the creation, after the creation, the Fall and being kicked out of the
Garden of Eden.
After hearing those stories, Enoch prayed God with vows and now God is so
pleased. When God saw the world at the time, the world stunk of bad smells. It
smelled like rotten dead bodies.
However, when God saw Enoch and his family they are fragrant.
That is why in the time of Enoch, God showed Enoch the second coming of the
Lord, how the angles of heaven and the heavenly host will move about at the
coming of the Lord.
And next God showed him the scene Jesuscoming.
Enoch was astonished. Amazed.
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
10/23
The crucial momentum that made Enoch walk with God was Methuselah, the son
Enoch had when he was 65 years old.
By the birth of his son Methuselah, Enoch met a turning point of his life.
Everything was turned upside down.
The life before he had his son Methuselah, the state of his heart, the faith he had
before; Enoch cast away all these. Why? Because he saw the revelation with his
own eyes and heard it from God directly with his own ears.
The Bible is clearly revealing the reason of his walk with God.
As it is stated in Deuteronomy 29:29, 29The secret things belong to the LORD our
God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever,
that we may do all the words of this law.
The secret things belong to the Lord our God, the secret things.
Only God knows the secret things and God did not tell the mankind or the
prophets or to anyone.
Gods plan, administration and providence which God did not say all belong to God.
But those things which are revealed; God told these things by His Word. God
revealed the secret.
But those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that
we may do all the words of this law.
The secret, in Chinese Character it isO Myo. O means inside and Myo means
mysterious.
It means profound and mysterious. In other words, curiously strange.
I think I know but I do not know.O MyoInside O and myserious Myo.
Profound and mysterious.
Mysterious; it means hard to define and not clear and strange.
The strange feeling that love and hatred are mixed.
Are you my friend? Maybe.. I can say I am your friend or I am not your friend.
The strange relationship between the two.
Those two seems to be very close to each other, aren t they?
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
11/23
Well, let me think.. I dont know they look close to each other from outside, but I
dont know if theyre really close friends.
We use the word strange describing such people.
The sudden change of Enoch when he was 65 years old, we can trace this
evidence in the Scripture Jude 1:14
14 Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying,
Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints,
Jude 1:15,15 to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among
them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and
of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.
So please do watch what you say. Rape, theft, fraud; all these are the second
matter.
Words, harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him will be the
target of judgment.
Modern Peoples Bible: about these men, the seventh generation from Adam
Enoch prophesied like this, The Lord comes with a multitude of His saints and
when He judges, He finds out reveals fully all the ungodly deeds which they have
committed in an ungodly way, and all the harsh things which ungodly sinner have
spoken against God.
When you speak your words, you prattle indiscriminately harsh things against God
here and there by dribbles as if youre pants pooper.
The Lord will judge this first.
That is why as it is stated in 1 Thessalonians 3 and 1 Peter 3, Do you love life?
Do you want to see good days?
If so, he who would love life and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from
evil, this is Gods command.
10 For
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
12/23
He who would love life
And see good days,
Let himrefrain his tongue from evil,
And his lips from speaking deceit.
Well, that is why he who spares his words!
Matthew 12:36-37
36 But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account
of it in the day of judgment. 37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your
words you will be condemned.
You will be judged by the fruit of your lips whether youre good or evil.
By the fruit of your lips.
Proverbs 12:14, 13:2, 17:37, 30, 31, 18:21, Ecclesiastes 12:14, Romans 14;12, 1
Peter 4:5, Matthew 5:22, James 3:2-12
And next , caution about lips
1 Peter 3:8-12, Proverbs 13:3, 21:23, 12:14, 18:20, 21, 4:23
The reason why I am telling you all these Scriptures is because right now this
service is being broadcasted to countries all over the world.
All are listening this service being broadcasted.
And for those who couldnt attend this service today, people are recording this
message with CD or cassette tape. That is why I am saying this.
Ephesians 5:4, it says,
4 neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but
rather giving of thanks.
. 11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose
them.
Foolish talking without seeds and contents does not have fruit.
Ephesians 5:11, 2 Peter 1:8, Acts 17:31
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
13/23
If you are arrogant, God strike you down.
You must be a flat nose. You become low. If you are arrogant, God lowers you. It
is in Proverbs 29:23.
Proverbs 17:19, 2 Samuel 22:28, Matthew 23:12, James 4:6, Proverbs 11:2,
14:14, 16:18
Conclusively, the king of Babylon Nebuchadnezzar the king, he was being proud
and in Daniel 4:29-31 he was lowered by God.
The son of Enoch Methuselah possesses a very profound meaning in terms of
Gods redemptive history.
Lamech had his first son and while he was praying he named his son Noah.
Genesis 5:28-29
28 Lamech lived one hundred and eighty-two years, and had a son. 29 And he
called his name Noah, saying, This one will comfort us concerning our work and
the toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD has cursed.
Like this, Enoch too had his first son and God named his son Methuselah.
Truly, God is making mankind realize the coming great tribulation through
Methuselah.
If you go to a village in countryside, there is a totem pole which symbolizes the
guardian angle of that village.
And the village people are very strict about it. Hey, you cannot touch it. It is our
guardian angle.
We Christians cannot understand them.
So, God did not make a totem out of piece of wood or iron or bronze, but God
used Enochs firstborn Methuselah as the guardian angle of the world at the time.
Just like people believe totem is guarding their village, God made Methuselah the
guardian angle of the world at that time.
Who knows this secret? Please forgive me. I have been preaching for 50 years and
while I am preaching I never drank this much water.
Methuselah
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
14/23
In order to find out and understand Gods will and Gods secret, if you dig up the
hidden meaning of Methuselah, I believe you will receive the blessing of prosperity
in the future.
If so, then who could understand Gods secret?
First, those who fear God. Not just average people. Believers who believe God with
fear and trembling.
Those who revere God with fear. That is the fear of God. Believing God with fear.
The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him.
If you truly fear God, then the secret of God is with you.
God says,I will show My secret to those who fear Me.
The secret of God is stuck to God firmly as a rock.
Whether you are asleep or awake, whether you eat or drink, you only have God
and nothing else in your mind.
The secret of God is there. God tells you all His secrets.
Please write this down.
Psalm 25:14
14 The secret of the LORD is with those who fear Him,
And He will show them His covenant.
Amos 3:7
7 Surely the Lord GOD does nothing,
Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
Genesis 18:17, Numbers 22:38
For those who fear God, Gods friendship never departs from them.
Whether it is your wife or your friend, if there is a friendship, you never forget
them. You can never forget them.
Job 29:4. Please write this down.
How do we know the secret of God?
Second, those who are filled with the Spirit of God know the secret of God.
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
15/23
If not by the Spirit of God, you can never know the inside story of God.
Job 15:8, Jeremiah 23:18, Romans 11:34
Conclusively 1 Corinthians 2:11, please do not forget.
Third, only those who belong to God can know the Word of life, the secret of God.
There are so many who do not belong to God no matter they are reverend, elder
or evangelist. They are all tag-along. Tag-along. Outsiders.
John 8:47
47He who is of God hears Gods words; therefore you do not hear, because you
are not of God.
And therefore, the Apostle Paul heard the same Word of God in the same
environment,
2 Corinthians 2:16
16 To the one we are the aroma of death leading to death, and to the other the
aroma of life leading to life. And who is sufficient for these things?
Luke 2:34 is talking about the same thing.
34Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, Behold, this Childis
destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spokenagainst
Truly, it is fearful proclamation that gives goose bumps.
Fourth, who can understand Gods profound and mysterious providence?
To the honest, Gods communion will not cease.
Psalm 84:11
11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield;
The LORD will give grace and glory;
No good thing will He withhold
From those who walk uprightly.
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011
16/23
If you are honest, you receive Gods grace and understand Gods lovingkindness.
Psalm 107:42-43
42 The righteous see itand rejoice,
And all iniquity stops its mouth.
43 Whoever is wise will observe these things,
And they will understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.
The wicked cannot understand anything. Only those who are wise will understand.
Daniel 12:10, Proverbs 10:29
The prophet Hosea said regarding the mysterious end of the end days, in Hosea
14:9, it says,9 Who is wise?Let him understand these things.
Who is prudent?
Let him know them.
For the ways of the LORD are right;
The righteous walk in them,
But transgressors stumble in them.
Who is wise?
Who is prudent?
It is hard to know and hard to understand. Who can understand the Word of God?
If so, then we need to deeply think about Enochs faith.
Enoch understood the secret of God and named his son Methuselah.
Please listen carefully.
In that name is contained the secret of God toward that time. To the people of
that time, Methuselah possesses the secret of life and death of the whole mankind
at the time. In the name Methuselah is contained the secret of life and death of the
whole mankind.
In fact, Methuselah was well known name at the time.

There was a fable verbally handed down from ancestors and Methuselah was the
name of guardian who protects the village in that fable. Methuselah was a man with
a spear in his hand who protected the village.
People called that guardian Methuselah.
Strangely, Methuselah has two meanings that reveal his duty. Two names.
Strangely, the name of Methuselah possesses two meanings.
First, Meth which means death. Second, Selah which means to be sent.
Methuselah is the compound word of Meth and Selah.
In other words, when Selah dies I will send.
So, it means after he dies, that incident will occur.
After Methuselah dies, that event will happen.
Truly, the Bible was proved to be right in 969 years. Amazed.
Enoch ascended into heaven after walking with God for 300 years.
After he ascended into heaven, that prophecy was fulfilled in 669 years.
Please listen carefully. Enoch ascended. To the kingdom of heaven. While he was
alive, when was the prophecy fulfilled? After he ascended into heaven, in 669 yearsthe prophecy was fulfilled.
There was nothing the Scripture was not correct. There was nothing which the
Scripture prophesied and was not proven to be correct.
After Enoch ascended to heaven, in 669 years, not even a year is missed. Not
even a year is miscalculated. Then the judgement by flood came in the time of
Noah.
Well, please take notes.
The revelation of judgment by flood made Noah build an ark. It was February 10th
of Noahs 600th year.
Genesis 7:10-11. Please write this down.
Genesis 7:10
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011

10 And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the
earth.
Genesis 7:11,
11In the six hundredth year of Noahs life, in the second month, the seventeenth
day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up,
and the windows of heaven were opened. 12 And the rain was on the earth forty
days and forty nights.
So when did Methuselah die? He died in the six hundredth year of Noahs life, in
the second month, the tenth day of the month.
After Noah heard the voice of God and understood, he proclaimed the judgment is
coming in 7 days from now according to Gods command.
Right after the death of Methuselah, in the six hundredth year of Noah s life, in the
second month, the tenth day of the month, all went into the ark.
For seven days, all went into the ark.
The world is protected from judgment while Methuselah is still alive. As soon as
Methuselah died, the revelation of judgment came precisely to Noah.
This is no coincidence. The revelation came to Noah.
Truly, it is mysterious and strange. When we study the chronicles of the Bible,
when Methuselah died, the judgment by flood came to the world.
Please write this down.
Lamech begot Noah when he was 182 years old and Methuselah begot Lamech
when he was 187 years old.
Please write this down. Here, the year when the flood began was Noahs 600thyear and Lamechs age when he had Noah was 182 years old, did you write this
down? And when Methuselah had Lamech he was 187. What is the total?
969
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011

Noahs father Lamech was 182 years old when he begot Noah. And when
Methuselah begot Noahs father Lamech he was 187 years old. And when the flood
started to came to earth, Noah was 600 years old. Total of 969 years, right?
The lifespan of Methuselah was 969 years. Genesis 5:17
Like I told you before, Enoch ascended to heaven after walking with God for 300
years old.
After he ascended into heaven, after 669 years later, the flood poured down on
earth.
Enoch was forewarned about the great judgment by flood 969 years before.
Jude 1:14-15, Hebrews 11:7. It is certain, right?
And so, Genesis 6:5-7 is describing the state of mankind at the time of Noah, right?
It was the same in the time of Enoch. Enoch had sons and daughters while he was
walking with God, as we read Genesis Chapter 4, look at the lineage of Cain.
It is the same environment of the time of Noah described in Genesis 6:7. It was
the exact same environment.
For Enoch knew the meaning of Methuselah, he was always watchful.
Enoch was watchful because he understood the meaning of Methuselah.
Jesus said in Matthew Chapter 24 regarding the end.
But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
As the days of Lot, the time when Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed and then
Jesus said in Matthew 24:42,
42 Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour[f] your Lord is coming.
Enoch was watchful. For he knew the years. It is certain.
The Scripture in Matthew 24:42 is a lie? Verse 43 and 44, too.
Matthew 25:13, too.

Those who watch can go out and greet the groom with lamps in their hands, but
those who do not watch go and ask for more oil and go out to gas station to get
more oil and the day broke. It is the end.
Truly, when you examine the Word of God in the Bible, there is none wrong, not
even one jot or one tittle.
My beloved saints, Enoch lived a worldly life until he was 65 years old and after he
begot Methuselah he was shown Jude 1:14-15 by God and God showed him an
enormous thing again.
He was watchful.
As we read Genesis 6:9, Noah walked with God. He was watchful.
Genesis 6:8
8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
The seventh from Adam too, but he found grace in the eyes of the Lord. Why?
Because he walked with God.
My beloved saints of God, in order to obtain life, do not be stubborn before God,
but humble yourselves and always have the state of praying heart that ask for the
grace of God that sends you the Spirit of wisdom, prudence, sagacity and
knowledge whenever you encounter the Word of God so that you may understand
the true meaning of the Word.
No matter who says what, today I opened up the cover of the profound Word of
God, and already, you cannot help but testify this Word of God. Truly it is amazing
Word of God.
Negative 35 degrees in Mount Jiri. How cold it is! You dont know how cold it is!
I was hitting the ground and crying out loud. I was eating pine needles and salt.
It tasted so sweet as honey because there was nothing to eat and I was very
hungry. I could not survive if I didnt eat them.
Now, youre receiving Word of God comfortably under electrical lightings, but I
spent 3 years 6 months and 7 days up on the Mount Jiri and that hardship, I cannot
describe with words. I cannot describe with words.

I went through many hardships.
Please listen carefully. To help you understand.
What was the purpose in Gods calling of Abraham the father of faith?
Abraham, I want to make a covenant with you. I must prepare the way for the
Messiah to come and I must make a covenant with you. You have a child.
You must teach your child this covenant and hand it down to him. If you die, this
Word of God too will disappear. So I will give you a child.
After God gave Abraham a son, God called Abraham and said to Him,I will give
you blessings. I will make all the blessings I spoke to you come to you. And I will
give you blessings.
In return, I have a wish. That is Genesis 18:18-19.
Im going to read.
Genesis 18:18-19
18 since Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the
nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? 19 For I have known him, in order that
he may command his children and his household after him, that they keep the way
of the LORD, to do righteousness and justice, that the LORD may bring to Abraham
what He has spoken to him.
What good is it if only you have this covenant?
What will happen after you die? This covenant will also disappear. That is why you
must have children and teach your children this justice and righteousness just like I
taught you.
If you do so, I will accomplish what Ive spoken to you through the Word of
covenant.
This is continuing without being broken until today, isnt it? Until today.
Now you know this.
Please write this down. To your sons and grandsons.
Deuteronomy 4:9, 6:7, 11:18-19, 32:46, Psalm 78:4-6.
How precious these Scriptures are!
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011

Deuteronomy 4:9
9 Only take heed to yourself, and diligently keep yourself, lest you forget the
things your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of
your life. And teach them to your children and your grandchildren.
Deuteronomy 6:7
7 You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you
sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you
rise up.
Deuteronomy 11:18-19
18Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul,
and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between youreyes. 19 You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in
your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.
And thus, I hope you believe that the stream of the Word of God s covenant is still
continuing until today without being broken and have come to and is staying with
Pyungkang Cheil Church now.
Today, a reverend who preached told me this. When he goes to a seminar titled as
History of Redemption, the seminar is not about the title.
So he drives here with a van so that he can run off if the message is not what the
title says. And this reverend comes and says to me, either a theologian student, a
reverend or anyone who believes the Bible, they want to learn about Gods
redemptive history.
You cannot just teach about Genesis only. You must connect all from Genesis to
Revelation.
God said to Abraham,Abraham, you must tell your children this. After I gave all
of Gods covenants to you and when I die, the Word of God will disappear. So you
must teach your children the justice and the righteousness. If you do so, then I will
accomplish all My covenants through your children.
7/29/2019 1Father's January 30th 2011

So now you know this and I hope youre healthy, because if youre not healthy,
you cannot do anything. Thanksgiving life, you must stay healthy. Thanksgiving.
Pray before God.
1 Thessalonians 5:16, pray without ceasing, rejoice always, and give thanks in all
things. for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
And therefore, our saints of Pyungkang Cheil Church, anyhow I want you to firmly
believe that the church that testifies Gods Word of covenants such as the covenant
by works of the first man Adam, the covenant of faith give to Abraham, covenant of
salt, the unchanging covenant is the living church and that church will accomplish
the last will of God. I want you to believe there will be such work in the end.
Let us pray.
