    Annotated Gen.6.1-3 "My Spirit"

    "And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh:"

    God is a Spirit and whatever we shall know of the world of Spirit is from the Spirit of truth is within us we require no other testimony. It is what Jesus promised and what our indwelling Spirit represents. Yet we are warned,""Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world."( 1 Jn 4.1) Enoch walked with God where he covered the two worlds even as Jesus Christ did, The point is in the fellowship of God with Man there is a common point on which our world shall be bound, It is our soul framed by the word of God, Enoch walked in faith, The Spirit sets the number 12. Five is the tag for soul of man and the Word which is the Law is a whole number. Thus 5+7=12 Whoever has entered into the God's rest shall walk not by sight but by faith. Enoch is set as a hero of faith."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." So faith is the pure speech God and man employs so man's life by faith is measured by 12x10.Anything less creates striving with the Spirit of God, It is for this reason we abide in Christ. God found Noah as righteous as Abel or Enoch was. This faith life is the lesson we derive from the ark of Noah.

    vv.1-2 "And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them," Obviously there were intermingling between the bloodline of Seth and of Cain. What concord has light with darkness as St Paul asks

    " And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?/16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God
