Genesis 424“If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, tru-

ly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.”

Lamech trusts in Cain and not God.

Family of Cain is irreligious.

1. Noah was born to a religious family.

Genesis 426And to Seth, to him also there was born

a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.The birth of a son prompts Seth to “call on the name of the Lord.”

What is that?

1. Noah was born to a religious family.

Genesis 127And the LORD appeared unto Abram,

and said, “Unto thy seed will I give this land”: …

8… and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.

Calling on the name of the Lord …

i) is for sacrifice

and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. …

One of these sons is most notable..

1. Noah was born to a religious family.

Genesis 524and Enoch walked with God: and he was

not; for God took him.What is meant by walking with God?

What is meant by being taken by God?

Jude14And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam,

prophesied of these, saying …Enoch regarded the word of God.

1. Noah was born to a religious family.

Jude14… “Behold, the Lord cometh with ten

thousands of His saints,15to execute judgment upon all, and to

convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spo-ken against Him.”Enoch regarded the judgment of God.

1. Noah was born to a religious family.

Hebrews 115By faith Enoch was translated that he

should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for be-fore his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.Enoch saw God with faith.

Enoch saw Paradise without death.

I Corinthians 1522For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ

shall all be made alive.23But every man in his own order: Christ

the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at His coming.Jesus is the first to go to heaven.

Enoch and Elijah are in Paradise.

1. Noah was born to a religious family.

Genesis 528And Lamech lived an hundred eighty

and two years, and begat a son:29and 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.”The name Noah means “quiet rest.”

2. Noah was a comfort to his parents.

1. Noah was born to a religious family.

Proverbs 207The just man walketh in his integrity:

his children are blessed after him.

God blessed Noah for his parent’s sake,but also his parents for his sake.

2. Noah was a comfort to his parents.

Proverbs 2324The father of the righteous shall greatly

rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him.

Ephesians 62Honour thy father and mother; (which is

the first commandment with promise;)3that it may be well with thee, and thou

mayest live long on the earth.Being a comfort to your parents is a comfort to you.

Note the word “may,” and remember Enoch.

I Kings 1412Arise thou therefore, get thee to thine

own house: and when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die.

13And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.

3. Noah was married to one woman.

Genesis 713In the selfsame day entered Noah, and

Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

Genesis 61And it came to pass, when men began to

multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,

2that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.Sons of God are those who call on the name of the Lord.

Daughters of men are like Lamech’s two wives.

Matthew 2230For in the resurrection they neither

marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

Angels do not marry.

Angels are not sons.

Hebrews 15For unto which of the angels said He at

any time, “Thou art My Son, this day have I begotten Thee?” And again, “I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son?”

Hebrews 17And of the angels He saith, “Who maketh

His angels spirits, and His ministers a flame of fire.” Psalm 104:4

14Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?Angels are spirits and ministers.

Angels minister to the sons of God.

Matthew 206Take heed that ye despise not one of

these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of My Father which is in heaven.

Angels are always present with God.

Job 16Now there was a day when the sons of

God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

Angels are always present with God.

Job 16Now there was a day when the sons of

God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

Satan can no more go in and out of heaven than Cain can Eden.

Satan is interested in sons of God who call upon His name, such as Job.

I John 31Behold, what manner of love the Father

hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God …

2Beloved, now are we the sons of God …

Those who call upon the name of God are sons of God while on earth.

Sons of God shine like stars.

Job 387when the morning stars sang together,

and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Genesis 62that the sons of God saw the daughters

of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

Sons of God practice polygamy.

3And the LORD said, “My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.”

Spirit of God opposes man’s flesh.

Galatians 517For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit,

and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

18But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Spirit of God opposes man’s flesh.

Spirit of God delivers from law’s curse.

Spirit of God leads the sons of God.

Romans 812Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not

to the flesh, to live after the flesh.13For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die:

but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

14For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
