Hebrews 11:6

Examples Of Faith In Action

⁵ Faith led to Enoch's removal from earth, that he might not experience death. 'He could not be found because God had removed him.' For, before his removal, he was renowned as having pleased God; ⁶ But without faith it is impossible to please him, for he who comes to God must believe that God exists, and that he rewards those who seek for him. ⁷ It was faith that enabled Noah, after he had received the divine warning about what could not then be foreseen, to build, in reverent obedience, an ark in which to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world, and became possessed of that righteousness which follows upon faith.
