Greetings to the whole community.

Continuing with the series of "Infantile Bible Stories", we will deal with an exemplary man in the days when there began to be more people on Earth, who were descendants of Cain and other children of Adam.

In Genesis 5: 21-24 and Hebrews 11: 5; Jude 14, 15. We will have the biblical supports for the story "A brave man".

Men started doing bad things like Cain.

When there were more people on Earth, most people did bad things like Cain. But a man was different. His name was Enoch.

Who was Enoch?

Enoch was a brave man. The people who lived around him were bad people, but he was still serving God.

Do you know why these people committed so many bad things?

Consider this: Who caused Adam and Eve to disobey God and eat the fruit that God forbade them?
A bad angel. The Bible calls him Satan. And he tries to make us all bad.

Jehovah God had Enoch say a message to evil men.

One day, Jehovah God had Enoch tell people something they did not want to hear. It was this: "One day God will destroy all the bad guys." This perhaps angered people a lot. Maybe they tried to kill Enoch. Therefore, Enoch had to be a very brave man to tell people what God was going to do.

God did not let Enoch live long among bad men.

God did not let Enoch live for a long time among those bad guys. He only lived 365 years. Why do we say only 365? Because in those times men were much stronger than now and lived longer. Yes; Matusalen the son of Enoch lived 965 years.

People got worse after Enoch's death.

Well, well, after Enoch's death, people got worse. The Bible says that "everything they thought was always bad" and "the Earth came to be full of violence".

Do you know any of the reasons why there were so many difficulties in those days? It was that Satan had a new way of leading people to evil.

The new way to deceive the man of Satan is what we will see in Part 8 of the series "Biblical stories for children."
