Who Am I?

I am the first prophet whom the Bible mentions. Being a very godly and devout man (My Name means “dedication”), I prophesied:

See the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones to judge everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly acts they have done in the ungodly way, and of all the  harsh words ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

Who am I? Are you perhaps still stumped? I will give you four more hints:

1. My dad went by the name of Jared or “descent.” 2. When I was 65 years old I fathered a son who lived longer than any other man in this world—almost a millennium. 3. I was the 6th generation after Adam.

4. I was “commended as one who pleased God.” Who am I?

Like all good Christians I went to church on the first day of the week, Sunday. Like all good Christians I went to the evening service. Like some good Christians I fell asleep as the missionary “talked on and on.” Who am I?

Footnote: “Who Am I?” Genesis 5; Jude 14–16. Acts 20:7–9.
