patriarch_n from_o adam_n unto_o noah_n in_o every_o age_n god_n have_v some_o to_o bear_v up_o his_o name_n in_o the_o world_n and_o among_o those_o these_o ten_o father_n be_v choice_a pillar_n but_o here_o be_v something_o remarkable_o speak_v of_o enoch_n here_o be_v account_v more_o of_o he_o than_o all_o the_o rest_n enoch_n walk_v with_o god_n and_o he_o be_v not_o he_o say_v of_o all_o the_o rest_n they_o live_v so_o long_o so_o many_o year_n and_o then_o they_o die_v but_o enoch_n walk_v with_o god_n and_o he_o be_v not_o therefore_o we_o shall_v consider_v who_o this_o enoch_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n bear_v witness_n of_o he_o and_o speak_v of_o this_o enoch_n as_o one_o that_o be_v a_o choice_a piece_n in_o his_o generation_n the_o apostle_n judas_n tell_v you_o that_o he_o be_v a_o prophet_n as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o that_o epistle_n the_o 14_o verse_n enoch_n also_o the_o seven_o from_o adam_n prophesi_v of_o thou_o say_v behold_v the_o lord_n come_v with_o ten_o thousand_o of_o his_o saint_n to_o execute_v judgement_n upon_o all_o etc._n etc._n enoch_n the_o seven_o from_o adam_n so_o judas_n describe_v he_o some_o put_v a_o great_a deal_n in_o this_o mystery_n the_o seven_o from_o adam_n and_o i_o think_v there_o be_v something_o in_o it_o as_o he_o be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v a_o type_n of_o that_o christ_n that_o be_v to_o

unto_o the_o lord_n and_o so_o he_o be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v choose_v out_o among_o his_o brethren_n and_o he_o be_v separate_v and_o dedicate_v unto_o the_o lord_n he_o walk_v with_o god_n and_o so_o do_v christ_n and_o therein_o he_o be_v a_o type_n of_o he_o he_o be_v well_o please_v unto_o god_n he_o have_v this_o testimony_n say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n he_o please_v god_n heb._n 11._o 5_o christ_n be_v the_o object_n of_o the_o father_n good_a pleasure_n in_o a_o special_a manner_n this_o be_v my_o belove_a son_n in_o who_o i_o be_o well_o please_v but_o i_o rather_o think_v the_o apostle_n intend_v no_o more_o than_o enoch_n but_o only_o to_o distinguish_v he_o from_o another_o enoch_n that_o be_v in_o that_o generation_n as_o you_o may_v read_v of_o he_o in_o gen._n 4._o 17._o and_o cain_n know_v his_o wife_n and_o she_o conceive_v and_o bare_a enoch_n and_o he_o build_v a_o city_n and_o call_v the_o city_n after_o the_o name_n of_o his_o son_n enoch_n so_o this_o enoch_n in_o gen._n 5._o be_v a_o three_o from_o adam_n for_o he_o be_v not_o the_o son_n of_o cain_n but_o the_o son_n of_o jared_n and_o of_o adam_n posterity_n by_o seth_n and_o rubin_n cain_n he_o come_v of_o that_o seed_n that_o be_v give_v instead_o of_o abel_n when_o abel_n be_v slay_v god_n give_v another_o seed_n instead_o of_o abel_n and_o enoch_n come_v of_o that_o seed_n the_o church_n of_o christ_n shall_v lose_v nothing_o by_o persecution_n if_o abel_n be_v take_v away_o by_o bloody_a hand_n the_o lord_n will_v raise_v up_o another_o seed_n and_o enoch_n a_o choice_a man_n be_v of_o that_o seed_n to_o hold_v up_o the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o the_o world_n when_o john_n baptist_n be_v put_v in_o prison_n christ_n himself_o go_v forth_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n the_o church_n of_o christ_n shall_v not_o lose_v by_o persecution_n out_o of_o the_o very_a ash_n of_o the_o saint_n that_o be_v slay_v shall_v arise_v new_a one_o man_n upon_o who_o a_o

what_o it_o be_v that_o be_v speak_v of_o this_o enoch_n there_o be_v two_o remarkable_a thing_n the_o one_o be_v concern_v his_o life_n and_o the_o other_o concern_v his_o death_n touch_v his_o life_n it_o be_v say_v that_o enoch_n walk_v with_o god_n he_o walk_v with_o god_n nay_o through_o his_o whole_a life_n he_o walk_v with_o god_n so_o many_o year_n as_o he_o live_v after_o he_o beget_v his_o first_o son_n three_o hundred_o year_n and_o upward_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n say_v that_o he_o please_v god_n that_o be_v his_o walk_n with_o god_n in_o heb._n 11._o 5._o by_o faith_n enoch_n be_v translate_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v death_n before_o his_o translation_n it_o be_v say_v he_o have_v this_o testimony_n that_o he_o please_v god_n at_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o verse_n he_o walk_v with_o god_n it_o be_v his_o constant_a aim_n to_o please_v god_n in_o all_o thing_n he_o aim_v at_o god_n in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o his_o life_n he_o have_v this_o testimony_n that_o he_o please_v god_n he_o live_v in_o faith_n and_o obedience_n and_o by_o faith_n he_o please_v god_n for_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v say_v it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n he_o continual_o exercise_v faith_n upon_o the_o promise_a messiah_n that_o be_v to_o come_v he_o live_v in_o expectation_n to_o see_v his_o day_n and_o he_o see_v it_o beforehand_o as_o abraham_n do_v by_o faith_n and_o rejoice_v and_o so_o he_o
from_o the_o evil_a to_o come_v object_n but_o you_o will_v say_v there_o may_v be_v hope_n of_o good_a day_n and_o that_o may_v make_v we_o unwilling_a to_o die_v in_o hope_n of_o good_a day_n answ_n why_o god_n may_v make_v you_o willing_a as_o moses_n be_v though_o at_o the_o border_n of_o canaan_n yet_o god_n will_v have_v he_o die_v and_o he_o go_v up_o to_o the_o mountain_n and_o die_v very_o willing_o there_o may_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o evil_n before_o the_o good_a come_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o shake_n sore_a shake_n before_o the_o good_a day_n come_v the_o passage_n to_o the_o land_n may_v be_v very_o straight_o yet_o christ_n will_v bring_v thou_o along_o with_o he_o when_o he_o come_v i_o say_v when_o ever_o christ_n come_v he_o will_v bring_v the_o saint_n along_o with_o he_o we_o that_o be_v alive_a shall_v not_o prevent_v those_o that_o be_v dead_a no_o they_o shall_v rise_v first_o and_o then_o shall_v we_o be_v change_v therefore_o god_n take_v away_o enoch_n at_o this_o time_n that_o he_o may_v give_v warning_n to_o the_o world_n that_o wrath_n be_v a_o come_n 2._o second_o again_o god_n take_v away_o enoch_n at_o this_o time_n that_o he_o may_v declare_v that_o he_o have_v respect_n unto_o his_o people_n though_o the_o world_n be_v never_o so_o wicked_a though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o cruel_a yet_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v forget_v but_o the_o lord_n remember_v the_o lord_n take_v notice_n of_o they_o if_o i_o find_v ten_o righteous_a man_n in_o sodom_n say_v god_n i_o will_v not_o destroy_v that_o city_n for_o ten_o sake_n god_n seek_v his_o own_o people_n and_o if_o he_o find_v but_o ten_o righteous_a soul_n in_o a_o city_n for_o their_o sake_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v destroy_v not_o a_o enoch_n shall_v be_v forget_v man_n may_v cast_v away_o much_o chaff_n and_o though_o there_o be_v two_o or_o three_o corn_n or_o more_o of_o wheat_n they_o will_v look_v for_o they_o but_o god_n will_v do_v so_o if_o a_o heap_n of_o chaff_n be_v never_o so_o great_a god_n will_v look_v over_o it_o and_o he_o will_v not_o lose_v one_o corn_n though_o in_o abundance_n of_o chaff_n his_o people_n do_v glorify_v he_o much_o in_o a_o evil_a time_n and_o grace_n be_v remarkable_a then_o when_o it_o shine_v bright_a in_o the_o midst_n of_o a_o dark_a night_n the_o lord_n will_v remember_v you_o and_o therefore_o if_o the_o lord_n will_v find_v you_o out_o and_o remember_v you_o in_o a_o evil_a world_n oh_o how_o shall_v you_o remember_v he_o he_o will_v do_v the_o more_o for_o you_o and_o deal_v the_o more_o remarkable_o with_o you_o because_o you_o be_v find_v faithful_a in_o a_o evil_a time_n in_o a_o evil_a world_n even_o as_o enoch_n therefore_o be_v you_o careful_a to_o walk_v with_o god_n again_o 3._o three_o and_o last_o god_n will_v declare_v hereby_o that_o the_o perfection_n and_o happiness_n of_o his_o people_n be_v not_o here_o below_o and_o therefore_o he_o will_v have_v they_o and_o all_o the_o world_n to_o know_v that_o the_o perfection_n and_o happiness_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v not_o below_o enoch_n enjoy_v as_o much_o of_o god_n as_o ever_o man_n do_v and_o yet_o enoch_n must_v be_v translate_v before_o he_o come_v to_o perfection_n god_n witness_n to_o this_o in_o the_o life_n of_o the_o best_a of_o the_o saint_n in_o that_o generation_n there_o be_v none_o that_o live_v a_o thousand_o year_n though_o there_o come_v many_o nigh_o to_o a_o thousand_o year_n which_o be_v the_o perfect_a number_n the_o perfect_a account_n the_o lord_n will_v teach_v that_o perfection_n be_v not_o

the_o worst_a of_o our_o day_n if_o perfection_n be_v not_o here_o o_o what_o need_v then_o have_v you_o to_o live_v in_o christ_n you_o be_v perfect_a in_o he_o say_v the_o apostle_n complete_a in_o

the_o lord_n make_v of_o the_o suffering_n of_o his_o people_n truth_n never_o thrive_v better_a than_o when_o it_o be_v most_o tread_v upon_o the_o more_o the_o wind_n blow_v upon_o this_o fire_n
