The Book of Enoch Messianic Prophecy Edition

Meme by James Heinz

We still have the Book of Enoch today because Methuselah fulfilled his father's request...

In Enoch and in the rest of the so-called "apocrypha", persecution of the righteous is a big theme! Is this why in our day these books are making a splashy comeback? One of the amazing things about the "apocrypha" and maybe one reason for its being hidden in the West, generally, there is a theme of persecution running through the books. The theme of persecution can be seen in Enoch, Wisdom, Tobit, Greek Esther, the rest of Daniel, and all four books of the Maccabees! Is it po...ssible these books were "hidden" by God, (which is the original meaning of the word, apocrypha) so they could make a big comeback right before the time when they will be most needed to encourage the elect? After all, Christians are on the receiving end of persecution more so now than in Roman times. In the last generation before Jesus returns, death will become the price for confessing Christ on a worldwide basis. ~ RI Burns
