        Issue #: 10   
      
      
      
        We are continuing from the last issue where we were going over the   
      
        family linage from Adam to Jared.  You can see here that Jared was   
      
        quite old and that is inspiring because at his age, he was still   
      
        able to father children.  Hundreds of years old these folks are and   
      
        how blessed they were.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:19  And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred   
      
                        years, and begat sons and daughters:   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:20  And all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty   
      
                        and two years: and he died.    
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:21  And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat   
      
                        Methuselah:    
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:22  And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah   
      
                        three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:23  And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty   
      
                        and five years:   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:24  And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God   
      
                        took him.    
      
       
      
        (KJV) Heb 11:5  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.    
      
           
      
        Enoch did not have to see death because he was pleased by God and   
      
        because he Enoch had walked with the Lord.  He was not found because   
      
        he was carried up to heaven.  It was the faith that Enoch had of the   
      
        Lord.  Faith can and will move mountains.  If we only just believe!   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:25  And Methuselah lived an hundred eighty and seven   
      
                        years, and begat Lamech:    
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:26  And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven   
      
                        hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and   
      
                        daughters:   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:27  And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred   
      
                        sixty and nine years: and he died.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:28  And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years,   
      
                        and begat a son:   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:29  And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall   
      
                        comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands,   
      
                        because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:30  And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred   
      
                        ninety and five years, and begat sons and daughters:   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:31  And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy   
      
                        and seven years: and he died.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 5:32  And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat   
      
                        Shem, Ham, and Japheth.   
      
      
      
        Here you have seen the continual linage from the first man up to   
      
        Noah.  We will explore the life of Noah in the following article.  He   
      
        was a great man and has been remembered by a multitude.   
      
      
      
        If you've enjoyed our meeting, remember to ask your SysOp to carry   
      
        MINISTER, an echo with FidoNet if he/she doesn't already.  Remember   
      
        also to keep your head up high.  May God bless you and keep you!
