Methuselah

1. Having Godly Parents does not make you right - Enoch walked with God (Gen. 5:24)

Having Godly Children does not make you right - Noah Grandson • Gen 6:8 shows that Noah found grace in the eyes of God because he was perfect and upright.

Being Old does not make you right. Gen 5:27 And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died.

Methuselah teaches us that righteous family members cannot save us. 2 Cor. 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. Matt. 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. OTHERS Eli – Hophni & Phineas / Samuel – Joel & Abiah / David - Absalom

Being righteous does not automatically save others
