The Bible provides examples such as Abel, Enoch, and Noah to illustrate faith that pleases God.
In Hebrews 11, the writer gives us examples of faithful individuals who embodied true faith before God. Abel, for instance, offered a sacrifice of faith that was accepted by God, emphasizing the importance of approaching God in faith rather than through self-righteousness (Hebrews 11:4). Enoch is noted for his intimate walk with God, which was characterized by faith that pleased God (Hebrews 11:5). Noah, likewise, acted on God's warning and built the ark, demonstrating faith through obedience amidst disbelief around him (Hebrews 11:7). Each example illustrates how genuine faith leads to actions that reflect trust in God's promises, setting a standard for all believers.
