Hebrews 11:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁴ Faith led Abel to offer God a better sacrifice than Cain’s sacrifice. Through his faith Abel received God’s approval, since God accepted his sacrifices. Through his faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead.

⁵ Faith enabled Enoch to be taken instead of dying. No one could find him, because God had taken him. Scripture states that before Enoch was taken, God was pleased with him. ⁶ No one can please God without faith. Whoever goes to God must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
