If we have a guide to show us the road; if we have a pleasant companion to talk with as we go on our way; if we have plenty of refreshments — nice things to eat and drink; if there are bright and cheerful prospects around and before us; and especially, if we are sure of a nice comfortable home to rest in when our walk is ended, these will help to make it pleasant. )Walking with GodT. "He was not" any longer subject to pain, sickness, infirmity, sorrow; all of which are still the portion even of those who walk with God in this vale of tears. We "walk with God." The roughness of the way or of the weather is nothing to them: it is joy enough to go for a walk with father. It was the piety also of a minister of religion; and what is any minister of religion, without personal godliness, but an actor in the most dreadful tragedy ever performed on the stage of this world, since it ends not in the feigned, but the real, death and destruction of the performer? According to Jude, Enoch was a prophet, Jude 14-15. changed his life. "Oh, ma'am! A PROFITABLE WALK. G. Angley, M. We are convinced that the "taking away" of Enoch is one of the strongest proofs of the belief in a future state prevailing among the Hebrews; without this belief, the history of Enoch is a perfect mystery, a hieroglyph without a clue, a commencement without an end. In the presence of a sorrowing multitude, his coffin was lowered into a grave in Abney Park Cemetery. Thus should the believer walk with God, resting on eternal tenderness and rejoicing in undoubted lave. )Gathering flowers to compose him in the hour of deathOld Testament Anecdotes.We know it to be a Scripture fact that men have "walked with God" in closest intimacy, and that God hath held converse with them, "even as a man converseth with his friend." THE SINGULAR CLOSE OF HIS PIOUS COURSE.1. It is heavenly religion (Philippians 3:20). Thus, when iniquity is general, it is our duty to be singular (Exodus 23:2); for we are called by God to be a peculiar people (Titus 2:14; Romans 12:2). His last words, after repeating the declaration that "God doth and will deal familiarly with man," were these: "And now, thou fiery chariot, that camest down to fetch up Elijah, carry me to my happy home. Here is a lame man. It includes intercourse. The presence of God turns the shadow of death into the morning, and invests him who enjoys it with immortality. Let us consider Enoch's holy life in this world; "Enoch walked with God." For what is taken from time is added to a blissful eternity (Revelation 7:14-17);(e) that a sudden removal, when God appoints it, is no cause of terror to those who die in Him, for to all such characters sudden death becomes sudden glory. The reasons are —1. The jester then replied, "Because heaven is a great way off, and I never knew my master take a long journey in his life but he always talked of it some time beforehand, and also made preparations for it; but I never heard him talk about heaven, nor ever saw him making preparations for death, and therefore I am sure he is not gone to heaven."(H. J. Who ever thinks of the spots which deface the sun? Without these, friendship itself is only a name; but with them, the very balm of life.4. Let none suppose that, whatever this may imply, it was the exclusive privilege of Enoch, and, therefore, is not to be sought after by others; for of Noah it is written — he "found grace in the eyes of the Lord; for he was a just man, and perfect in his generation." God consecrates us His spiritual priests that our whole manhood may be set apart and our whole lives dedicated to His service. He gives one rule of walking, extending to man's whole conversation; and so he that walks with Him, walks regularly, aiming at a holy niceness, preciseness, and exactness, in conformity to that rule in all things (Ephesians 5:15).6. The relations under which it was sustained. Boston, D. D.I. We are convinced that the "taking away" of Enoch is one of the strongest proofs of the belief in a future state prevailing among the Hebrews; without this belief, the history of Enoch is a perfect mystery, a hieroglyph without a clue, a commencement without an end. HISTORY OF ENOCH.II. You grieve for the death of your little friends, and you fear that you also may be taken. Enoch's life was not a long one as lives went in those days; he was only in what would be then regarded as early middle life when his call came, but had fulfilled his year. We "walk with God." J. Morris.I. What does that relationship call for? It is an upward struggle, a heavenward course, a climbing up to the mount of God.3. Yet, it must have been eminently gracious. Rowlands, B. Hay Aitken, M. A.Other notable men existed in that ancient time, to whom we are apparently more indebted than we are to Enoch; men who were the fathers of arts and sciences, and the founders of political institutions — pioneers in the onward march of civilization.
