OkCornel:I have read the book of Enoch volume 1,though once, but I found it a nice read, gave more expositions on the 66 approved books of the Bible, and for the now no trace of heresy. However, I will try to launch an investigation why it is not regarded as an inspired word of God, and same with other apocrypha that fall in the same line with it. Thanks.

When you’re done playing the ostrich, the poser below is waiting for you. For those postulating theories on how the sons of God are male descendants from the lineage of Seth; Jude 1 v 6; 6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Questions: 1) Which angels was Jude referring to in verse 6, and when did they leave their first estate? 2) If you say it is those angels that rebelled alongside Lucifer, shouldn't they all be in everlasting chains right now awaiting judgement? Shouldn't this earth be free from demons and evil spirits? 3) The sons of God spoken of in Job Chapters 1 and 2, are they also male descendants from the lineage of Seth? |

Mutteylaff finds it difficult to believe in the origins of Spirits and celestial beings ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() That the Sun, moon, stars are a link/bridge between the realm of the Spirit and physical. Or how else do you think the sun suspends and doesn't drop on earth? How do you assume that the sun can power the whole earth and knows when to rise and set? Everyday, and on time ![]() So man can preserve his words in books how do you assume the God of the whole world cant do same? I saw you say the book of enoch is accursed. Paul said any one that preaches another gospel should be accursed. That book preaches Christ ![]() ![]() if the book does not make you comfy den dont read it. I can however say that a true son of God desirous for more understanding of God will enjoy that book. 3 Likes 3 Shares |

CaveAdullam:God has permitted you to reveal your true face. You're mocker CaveAdullam, under normal circumstances I wouldnt have bat an eyelid or give you the time or day, but today is a forgiving day for a lucky treacherous person. You want to punch above your weight, hmm? Right then be my guest then. Put on your seat belt on and hold tight, I sure hope you have a strong stomach for going on this ride and bumpy road with me, lol. CaveAdullam, I've just prayed and hope you be capable enough to patiently read a long post and obtain without difficulty every ounce of info this post is going to be fully charged with, lol. Mind you, I might have to split the post into two parts, as I am guessing if not it'll be a very long post and the gods of Nairaland wont take kindly to something like that, a very long post. CaveAdullam: “4Again the Lord said to Raphael, Bind Azazyel hand and foot; cast him into darkness; and make an opening in the desert, which is in Dudael (i.e. Gods Kettle/Crucible/Cauldron), cast him in there “1And these are the names of the holy angels who watch. "For if God did not spare the angels having sinned, but having cast them down to Tartarus, in chains of gloomy darkness, delivered them, being kept for judgment; - 2 Peter 2:4 For if God did not forgive the angels that sinned, but cast them down into the deepest abyss {Gr. Tartarus} and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;" - 2 Peter 2:4 One of the various sources, that first century people back in biblical times then, got their fable tales and legend info from about angels having sexual intercourse with human beings etcetera was from writings like the Book of Enoch. Now CaveAdullam, first thing first, you need to have the understanding of is that the content of Jude 1:6, was originally first mentioned in one of the Petrine epistles. Fyi, Jude 1:6, actually was first mentioned by Peter in 2 Peter 2:4 to be precise and I took the liberty to copy it out, as can be seen above. Jude though copying from Peter's letter, both Peter and Jude, in their individual warning letters both paraphrase the Book of Enoch, I mean look at Enoch 10: 4-9 above, to be precise. Do you notice the similarities? Anyway, it is from Peter's letter, that Jude was taking lead from, when he wrote his version of warning letter to those same believing in fairy tales mytical make-believe stories about angels and taken to all that nonsense and ingredients rubbish thats in the accursed Book of Enoch There are many telltale signs, that betrays the Book of Enoch and gives it away as a fanstatic speculative fiction book. Some of the telltale signs, I've already before mentioned on this thread, like for example when I earlier responded to one of the nijabazaar comments. The Book of Enoch, no doubt was authored by a Greek mythology influenced first century person with an over-imaginative mind. MuttleyLaff: As I was saying, the proof of this is in the use of the term "tartarus" which has origins from a Greek mythology influence CaveAdullam it'll surprise you to know that the word "tartarus" is only used once in the entire Bible. Why? It is because "tartarus" is a foreign concept to Jewish beliefs. Nobody, no other writer except for Peter, in 2 Peter 2:4 used the Greek mythology influenced "tartarus" word. The word appears only once in the entire New Testament and that was in a warning letter Peter sent to those people who were into Greek mythology and the beliefs in a Greek god named Hades. Peter was paraphrasing the Book of Enoch when he used the term "tartarus" and content of 2 Peter 2:4, and this he did that way because he knew those reading his warning letter are in tune with the the Book of Enoch and will recognise where from he paraphrased in his warning letter. CaveAdullam, lets break down a bit further this word "tartarus" shenanigan, erhn? As I've earlier said, the concept of Tartarus has no history or place in the Jewish belief, it is a concept that has links with ancient Greek mythology. Look at the reproduced quote of mine above, from another thread, talking about Hades etcetera, well fyi CaveAdullam, according to ancient Greek mythology, Tartarus, is one of the realms within Hades. It is situated lower than even Hades (i.e. the deepest abyss of Hades), its the place of the dead, and seen to be a horrible pit of torment in the afterlife, populated by ferocious monsters and the worst of criminals. CaveAdullam:Jude was taking cue from Peter, who first paraphrased from the Book of Enoch, as I have earlier advanced. They, as in, both Jude and Peter, used a foreign ideology not anywhere known in scripture, meaning not found in the Bible or in an average Yahweh believing Jewish mind set, but is in books, like the Book of Enoch, well-known to reprobates who would believe in something ludicrous as angels, indulging in sexual relationships with female human beings. Jude or Peter were not in their letters teaching that angels have reproductive plumbing to give seminal fluids to earthly women that will impregnate them, but were using the Book of Enoch as a reference point to warn those unprincipled in their wacko beliefs to stop slandering angels and falsely accusing angels of what they never done. The book of Enoch listed at least, 200 fallen angels, as leaders who vacated their habitation. Go read each one of the Bible verses contextually and read slowly and loudly now to see how Jude and Peter laid into these people, cast aspersions on them and their figment of imagination CaveAdullam, lol. CaveAdullam:Well thats what I thought too, that shouldnt this earth be free from demons and evil spirits if they are already slammed up, so CaveAdullam, shouldnt we be asking the impostor fake Enoch who wrote that accursed fantasy book of Enoch about this erhn lol?. It is not the first time the impostor fake Enoch has contradicted himself, shot full of holes and tied himself up in a knot with deviant, outlandish, preposterous and freakish storylines. CaveAdullam:Emphatic yes, they are also male descendants from the lineage of Seth. As a matter of fact CaveAdullam, the sons of God, spoken of in Job 1:6, Job 2:1 and Job 38:7, plus even Genesis 6:2 and 6:4, lol, are male descendants from the lineage of Seth, originated from Adam, the first acknowledged and kofam, son of God, lol. |

gobuchinny:Sir, you dont know what MuttleyLaff believes in. You have the foggiest idea what MuttleyLaff believes in gobuchinny:I am glad and pleased to know that we agree this much that God is Spirit and He presides over spirits gobuchinny:Two out of two, this is not bad, I hope you can keep up this we agreeing with each other gobuchinny:Oh oh, spoke too soon, here is the YOYO point, here is where we part on our agreeing, it was fun when it lasted. Where from in the entire scripture, except from the accursed Book of Noah, do you read in a clear and detailed manner, leaving no room for confusion or doubt that angels were ensnared and lusted after women, hmm? Where from in the entire Bible, if not from the accursed Book of Noah, do you read in a clear and detailed manner, leaving no room for confusion or doubt that it was angels who gave birth to giants that were born and the spirits of these giants are demons, hmm? Smh. gobuchinny:So? Dont you know that the Bible before the archaeology discoveries that proves giants existed already had stated that giants were on earth before the sons of God went into the daughters of men and after gobuchinny:Yeah, lol, tell me now, dont spare me the graphic. gobuchinny:Humans can change sex from male to female, because fundamentally and physiologically they are not human beings. It is difficult for celestial beings to do same because of the following reasons: 1/ Number one reason, God doesnt permit and/or allow sex change or whatnot to be done by celestial being. 2/ Then number two reason, celestial beings, also known as angelic hosts, make themselves visible to human beings and their näked physical eyes only when on official assignment and sent by God. Angels fallen or not, know their limits, and so operate within the limits of their operation. Angels, fallen or not fallen, appear, looking as though they are humans when they are not. What you see when or if they appear, is the impression of being human beings, but they are not human beings gobuchinny, period. gobuchinny:"14And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to distinguish between the day and the night, and let them be signs to mark the seasons and days and years. 15And let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth.” And it was so. 16God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night. And He made the stars as well. 17God set these lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth, 18to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day. " - Genesis 1:14-19 Of course, the sun, moon and stars are a link/bridge between the realm of the Spirit and physical, but not just that my dear friend gobuchinny, but when God, on the fourth day, created the sun, moon and stars, God effectively was setting a clock, lol. Remember Genesis 1:14 and the rest above, hmm? gobuchinny:The Book of Enoch is not an inspired book of God gobuchinny:"22On the day of judgment many will call me their Lord. They will say, “We preached in your name, and in your name we forced out demons and worked many miracles.” 23 But I will tell them, “I will have nothing to do with you! Get out of my sight, you evil people!”" - Matthew 7:22-23 C'mon now gobuchinny, you can do better than this. Look at least at Matthew 7:22-23 above, there are similar verses like that more I can give, but that one should just do, lol. Even demons, are known, in the Bible, to preach Christ. Phtt gobuchinny:God in his infinite wisdom unlike the Book of Jasher wasnt allowed to be mentioned in the Bible because of the known fact that the accursed Book of Enoch, unlike the lost Book of Jasher, is not at all an inspired work of God but is that of the devil and is from the pit of hell. gobuchinny:He is a person non grata to me. His case is once bitten, twice shy. Fool me once, shame on him. Fool me twice, would be shame on me then, but I am not willing to be burned twice by the same flame, it wont happen so it wont be my fault and no shame on me. Let each maintain and stay their lanes. gobuchinny:gobuchinny, it is not just only today that have started answering and/or explained passingly what was going on with Peter and Jude referencing, paraphrasing and in codes, talking about excerpts of the Book of Enoch in their warning letters. gobuchinny, if you really have carefully read all my comments on and about the accursed Book of Enoch, I have always advanced the notion that Peter and Jude along with a bunch of others have back to back read the Book of Enoch and similar of its nature. I consistently also have advanced why they made reference to the Book of Enoch, whilst no other biblical writer has. Even in my post above this one, I further have explained the rationale behind why and how Peter and Jude paraphrased the Book of Enoch, as they did in their warning letters to people with reprobate minds having similar ideologies to the the one you seem to be gravitating to gobuchinny gobuchinny: MuttleyLaff: MuttleyLaff:gobuchinny, did you read the two above comments of mine, brought here quoted from other threads? Is that the kind of ludicrous things, written by someone high of dry banana leaves that you enjoy reading, ehrn? There are more I can share with you, but hey ... The book wont make me comfy to wipe my bum with, but I wouldnt hesistate using it, in the absence of readily available toilet tissue paper. |

Hahahaha, Mr. Muttley is implicitly telling us that Job lived in a timeline prior to the flood; Kuku tell us that the Chaldeans & Sabeans that killed Job's shepherds and rustled his flock of livestock lived in an era prior to the flood too; As a matter of fact CaveAdullam, the sons of God, spoken of in Job 1:6, Job 2:1 and Job 38:7, plus even Genesis 6:2 and 6:4, lol, are male descendants from the lineage of Seth, originated from Adam, the first acknowledged and kofam, son of God, lol. Job 1 v 15-17; 15 And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. In addition to the above, Muttley is also implying Peter and Jude were casting aspersions on the book of Enoch; If anything, on the contrary, they are validating the writings of Enoch. 2 Peter 2 v 4; For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment Jude 1 v 6; And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Enoch 10 v 4-6 & 11-12; 4. And again, the Lord said to Raphael: 'Bind Azazel hand and foot, and cast him into the darkness and split open the desert, which is in Dudael and cast him in. 5. And fill the hole by covering him with rough and jagged rocks, and cover him with darkness, and let him live there forever, and cover his face that he may not see the light. 6. And on the day of the great judgment, he shall be hurled into the fire. 11. And the Lord said to Michael: 'Go bind Semjaza and his team who have associated with women and have defiled themselves in all their uncleanness. 12. When their sons have slain one another, and they have seen the destruction of their beloved ones, bind them fast for seventy generations under the hills of the earth, until the day of the consummation of their judgment and until the eternal judgment is accomplished.' Please someone should read 2 Peter 2 and the book of Jude, and show us where Peter or Jude was warning against the writings of Enoch. How can someone live in such obvious lies and denial? |

Going by someone's funny logic here, if the sons of God, spoken of in Job 1:6, Job 2:1 and Job 38:7, plus even Genesis 6:2 and 6:4, are male descendants from the lineage of Seth, so therefore...all of males right now on earth are sons of God. ![]() ![]() ![]() Afterall, Noah...a male descendant of Seth survived the flood, and his male descendants re-populated the earth via Shem, Ham and Japheth... Hahahaha, all men on earth are sons of God.

The Book of Enoch was removed from the bible in order to affirm its inauthenticity. Further more, Enoch isnt the only part of the bible that has been subject to the scissors in recent history. Others include Esdras, Tobit, Judith, Sirach, Baruch, Susanna, the first and second Maccabees. The main point to take out of the invention of the bible is that it peddles a fake representation of history. 2 Likes |

Let us examine the books of the Bible that made references to other books; 1) The Annals of King David - referenced in 1 Chronicles 27 v 24. 2) The Acts of Solomon - referenced in 1 Kings 11 v 41. 3) The Acts of Samuel the Seer - referenced in 1 Chronicles 29 v 29. 4) The book of Nathan the Prophet - referenced in 1 Chronicles 29 v 29 and 2 Chronicles 9 v 29. 5) The book of Gad the Seer - referenced in 1 Chronicles 29 v 29 6) The book of Jehu - referenced in 2 Chronicles 20 v 34 7) The Acts of Uzziah - referenced in 2 Chronicles 26 v 22 8 ) The vision of Isaiah - referenced in 2 Chronicles 32 v 32 9) The sayings of the Seer, also known as the Sayings of Hozai - referenced in 2 Chronicles 33 v 19 10) The book of Jasher - referenced in Joshua 10 v 13 and 2 Samuel 1 v 18 11) The book of Shemaiah the Prophet - referenced in 2 Chronicles 12 v 15 12) The book of the Wars of the Lord - referenced in Numbers 21 v 14 13) The book of Enoch - referenced in Jude 1 v 4,6,13,14,15 and 2 Peter 2 v 4, 3 v 13 <already dealt with on this thread> I still find it baffling that the entire words of God can suddenly be limited to just 66 books... afterall, Apostle John clearly mentioned that if all the acts of Jesus alone were recorded, the entire world cannot contain what will be written... 2 Likes 2 Shares |

budaatum:classic specimen of a human being @muttleylaff, you see this post by uncle buda, yes you have seen it, it is the exact way I have recently started to view things along side books. I know you want me to tread on good grounds and thanks for that. What I'm really after concerning any spiritual book is the way it ACKNOWLEDGES THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. DOES THE BOOK REGARDS THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AS LORD AND SON OF GOD? DOES THE BOOK RECOGNIZES THE FINISHED WORK OF CHRIST JESUS AND HIS PAROUSIA? If the book tallies with what the Bible says concerning these facts I sheath my sword, take hold of my microscope to see if there be any trace of heresy so that I might come to a proper understanding. The most important note I always take is how it package the personality of my Lord and God; Jesus Christ and If found wanting it automatically becomes false to me. I gained some insights in that post of yours concerning tartarus, Sheol, hell, Hades Gehenna. Thanks. God bless. 3 Likes 3 Shares |

OkCornel:Hello. 1. Have you considered that these books may only be forgeries that were given the names of the true originals named in the Bible? 2. Have you considered that the books referenced and quoted in the Bible are only referenced and quoted whenever they are right and useful rather than to suggest in any way that they are inspired? If referencing and quoting them meant that they were inspired, should we not be looking for Greek and Cretan poets and philosophers to read too, since Paul quoted them? Should we assume that these pagan poets and philosophers were also inspired by the Lord to write? |

OkCornel:Obviously (or, at least, anyone can tell from our history with each other), I'm not aiming to persuade you to or even believing that there is any chance that you will change your mind about the Bible, so I wasn't asking those questions in order that we would have any kind of meaningful debate. They were for anyone who is actually open to the Truth to consider. I don't consider you to be such a person. Now, you presume to ask questions of me when you won't answer mine. I will answer yours, and then I will entertain no further response from you until you answer mine. 1. 2 Timothy 3:16 is saying the exact same thing as Hebrews 4:12. They both mean that the Scriptures have life in them. That is, they are living words. That is what makes anything the "Word" or "Oracle" of God: the presence of life in them. That something is alive is an objective reality. It has nothing to do with the observer's feelings. So, anyone may read the Bible and completely ignore their unique quality of life or pretend that other writings possess the same quality. That makes no difference to what I just said. There are only 66 books that have life in them. They are what Evangelical Protestants call the Bible. 2. Yes. Why on Earth would it not be? 3. There are way too many for anyone to read them all in one lifetime, but I have read some of them. I did have a Roman Catholic heritage in my mom's side of the family. Now, what are your answers to my own questions? 1 Like |

Ihedinobi3: Nice... so the standard of the Evangelical Protestants suddenly becomes the standard for the books that were inspired by the Spirit of God?; The first version of King James Bible (1611 version) had more than 66 books, the extra books were not inspired? What of the Ethiopian Bible which is one of the oldest bibles around with over 80 books, are the extra books in there not also inspired? 1 As for the authenticity of the book of Enoch for example, it was found as part of the books in the dead sea scrolls alongside other ancient manuscripts that formed some of the books of the new testament we have today. Any objections to that? 2 The books of Peter and Jude made reference to the writings of Enoch, any objections to that? 1 Like

Mutteylaff my man. Whatever makes you sleep at night. From your responses you r clearly confused ![]() If you knew some history, you would know that the early church read those Dead Sea scrolls. What books do you think Abraham, and the patriarchs read? Dont you know you get to know about God through books? Even Jesus read books tho He was Christ..even the bible say Enoch walked with God. Do you think he will work with God and not have books? If you know God then you know that everyone that knows him writes ![]() ![]() ![]() You r naive imagine saying the sons of God in job r d descendants of Seth ![]() ![]() I wont respond to you on this matter bro. It's a waste of my time and yours. Hopefully we can agree on other things. I WILL FOREVER BE READKNG THIS GREAT BOOK THAT THE DEVIL TRIED TO ROB CHRISTIANITY OF. THE SAME BOOK THAT WAS QUOTED TWICE ![]() ![]() You win bro. But let me first go and read that chapter on semyaza ![]() 2 Likes 1 Share |
