What works did Sarah do? The most important work, which no man can do:
By faith also Sara herself, being barren, received strength to conceive seed, even past the time of age; because she believed that he was faithful who had promised (Heb 11:11)
Regarding Enoch, we indeed don't know much but the scripture mentions that he "walked with God" (Genesis 5:22) and is counted among "men of mercy, whose godly deeds have not failed", who "pleased God" (Ecclesiasticus 26:10,16).

It was her faith that was credited to her as righteousness. Now if your church is going to claim faith is a work, why does it insist that you do so many others?
