First thanks for the reply.Hi 101,
Let me ask you . . . which is correct, that Enoch was translated so that he should not see death, Hebrews 11:5, or that "all these died"? Or is it that the one who is stated to not have died is excepted?
All these died, except, of course, the one said didn't . . .
Where have we been translated to? No where? Or into heaven? The Bible says we are seated in the heavenlies, hid with Christ in God.
Much love!
Second, by removing Enoch he was not killed, or see death. for the Earth was full of violence. and there was plenty of prophets who lost their life, not only to an enemy nation, but at the hands of their own PEOPLE. and it's no different even today.
but in hebrews God just move/transported him to another part of the planet, if God had other work for him to do, I don't know. but one thing for sure Hebrews 11:13 is not lying.
Just as Elijah was nearing the end of his ministry, God removed him to another part of the land, and this was not the first time this happen to Elijah.
as I said before, Philip was in a like manner taken away/transported to another place in the land. scripture,
Acts 8:39 "And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
Acts 8:40 "But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
that term "caught away" is the same term many use for the rapture,
G726 ἁρπάζω harpazo (har-pa'-zō) v.
to seize.
{in various applications}
[from a derivative of G138]
KJV: catch (away, up), pluck, pull, take (by force)
Root(s): G138
but Philip didn't leave the planet, but was lifted up off, or above the surface and was "TRANSLATED/MOVER" to another place, for he was found at Azotus. see it now.
Enoch died just like Elijah and Moses and every other man on this planet.
Hoped that helped.
