THE BOOK OF ENOCH—I cannot count the number of times people have asked me about the book of Enoch, and other writings, that are included in Catholic and Ethiopian Bibles but are not in the Bible itself. So I thought this may be helpful.
The book of Enoch was written before Christ, but the Jews did not accept it as part of their Bible (the Old Testament). The book contains false doctrine that contradicts both Old and New Testament Scripture, and thus it was rightly rejected.
For example, the book of Enoch tells the ridiculous story that fallen angels (demons) married human women before the flood and had babies with them. But Jesus specifically said that angels “neither marry, nor are given in marriage” (Matthew 22:30). Angels are “spirits” (Psalm 104:4, Hebrews 1:14), not human flesh and blood, so they don’t have reproductive organs and can’t produce offspring with women. The Bible is clear that all men descended from ADAM, not angels.
The spiritual leaders who promote these extra books, like Catholics, promise their readers a greater knowledge of God’s Word if they read them, yet they don’t understand the Bible themselves, or they wouldn’t be praying to Mary and other dead Christians: they would be praying to God. So don’t worry about the “missing” books from your Bible, because there’s not any.
I still have too much to learn from the 66 books God has given me, to worry about the books He has not.
