Wilson, delivered at First Presbyterian Church, Wilmington, North Carolina, dated December 27, 1894, in which he ruminates over the certainty of death. Wilson begins by contemplating the fact that even the long lived antediluvians died, noting that little was written of their lives but that we can be certain they were wicked because God destroyed them in the great flood. He then references Enoch as one who never died because he "walked with God" and reminds his listeners that, similarly, those who are good never truly die. Their bodies may perish but they live on in heaven.</dc:description><dc:format>application/pdf</dc:format><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:subject>Presbyterian Church in the U.S.--Sermons--19th century</dc:subject><dc:subject>Presbyterian Church in the U.S.--Theology</dc:subject><dc:subject>Death--Religious aspects--Christianity</dc:subject><dc:subject>Old age--Mythology</dc:subject><dc:subject>Walking--Religious aspects--Christianity</dc:subject><dc:title>And He Died, Gen. 5:27</dc:title><dc:type>Text</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
