Enoch is a man who lived in the Old Testament period. He was taken up into heaven by God while he was living in the world, because he pleased God during his life. There has been no other person taken up into heaven while he or she was living in the world. In the New Testament, Jesus is the only one who was taken up or who went up into heaven. Jesus is the Lord, but Enoch was an ordinary person. So Enoch is the most perfect man I have ever known.

It was a great pleasure if someone had a chance to be taken up into the heavens by God while he or she was living in the world. Many times I think how can Enoch live a life that pleased God everytime.
