Enos 1 1 Behold, it came to pass that I, Enos, knowing my father, that he was a just man: for he taught me in his language, and also in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
2 And blessed be the name of my God for it.
3 And I will tell you of the wrestle which I had before God, before I received a remission of my sins;
4 Behold I went to hunt beasts in the forest; and the words which I had often heard my father speak, concerning eternal life, and the joy of the saints, sunk deep into my heart.
5 And my soul hungered; and I kneeled down before my Maker, and I cried unto him in mighty prayer and supplication, for mine own soul;
6 And all the day long did I cry unto him; yea, and when the night came, I did still raise my voice high, that it reached the heavens.
7 And there came a voice unto me saying, Enos, thy sins are forgiven thee, and thou shalt be blessed.
8 And I, Enos, knew that God could not lie; wherefore, my guilt was swept away.
9 And I said, Lord, how is it done?
10 And he said unto me, because of thy faith in Christ, whom thou hast never before heard nor seen.
11 And many years pass away, before he shall manifest himself in the flesh; wherefore, go to, thy faith hath made thee whole.
