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. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. ~ HEBREWS 11:5-6

Enoch was a type given to us to see what a Rapturing condition is. For years we have looked at Enoch and pondered about the type of walk he must have had to warrant a translation. The simplicity is that he pleased God. While Genesis 5 mentions nothing about his faith, Paul knows from his own experience that it takes faith to please the Lord, so faith must be the key. Since faith is a revelation, then we can begin to put scriptures together to understand what this faith must have done. Romans 12:1-2 tells us we must be changed by the renewing of our mind so that we can “prove” what is acceptable, or pleasing, to God. The changing of our mind is what revelation is all about. It is accepting the Mind of Christ as our guide in place of our own humanity. To please God would be to manifest His thought of you.
