1. The book of the words of righteousness, and of the reprimand of the eternal Watchers in accordance with the command of the Holy Great One in that vision I saw in my sleep.
2. What I will now say with a tongue of flesh and with the breath of my mouth, which the Great One has given to men to converse therewith and understand with the heart.
3. As He has created and given to man the power of understanding the word of wisdom, so hath He created me also and given me the power of reprimanding the Watchers, the children of heaven.
4. "I wrote out your petition, and in my vision it appeared thus, that your petition will not be granted unto you throughout all the days of eternity, and that judgment has been finally passed upon you.
5. Your petition will not be granted unto you. And from henceforth you shall not ascend into heaven unto all eternity, and in bonds of the earth the decree has gone forth to bind you for all the days of the world.
6. And previously you shall have seen the destruction of your beloved sons and ye shall have no pleasure in them, but they shall fall before you by the sword.
7. And your petition on their behalf shall not be granted, nor yet on your own even though you weep and pray and speak all the words contained in the writing which I have written.
8. And the vision was shown to me thus: Behold, in the vision clouds invited me and a mist summoned me, and the course of the stars and the lightnings sped and hastened me, and the winds in the vision caused me to fly and lifted me upward, and bore me into heaven.
9. And I went in till I drew nigh to a wall which is built of crystals and surrounded by tongues of fire: and it began to affright me.
10. And I went into the tongues of fire and drew nigh to a large house which was built of crystals and the walls of the house were like a tessellated floor made of crystals, and its groundwork was of crystal.
11. Its ceiling was like the path of the stars and the lightnings, and between them were fiery cherubim, and their heaven was water.
12. A flaming fire surrounded the walls, and its portals blazed with fire.
13. And I entered into that house, and it was hot as fire and cold as ice. There were no delights of life therein; fear covered me, and trembling got hold upon me.
14. And as I quaked and trembled, I fell upon my face and I beheld a vision, and lo! there was a second house, greater than the former, and the entire portal stood open before me, and it was built of flames of fire.
15. And in every respect it so excelled in splendor and magnificence and extent that I cannot describe to you its splendor and its extent.
16. And its floor was of fire, and above it were lightnings and the path of the stars, and its ceiling also was flaming fire. And I looked and saw therein a lofty throne, its appearance was as crystal, and the wheels thereof as the shining sun, and there was the vision of cherubim.
17. And from underneath the throne came streams of flaming fire so that I could not look thereon.
18. And the Great Glory sat thereon, and His Raiment shone more brightly than the sun and was whiter than any snow.
19. None of the angels could enter and could behold His Face by reason of the magnificence and glory and no flesh could behold Him.
20. The flaming fire was round about Him, and a great fire stood before Him, and none around could draw nigh Him; ten thousand Times ten thousand were before Him, yet He needed no counselor.
21. And the most holy ones who were nigh to Him did not leave by night nor depart from Him. And until then I had been prostrate on my face, trembling and the Lord called me with His own Mouth, and said to me: "Come hither, Enoch, and hear My Word."
22. And one of the holy ones came to me and waked me, and He made me rise up and approach the door, and I bowed my face downwards.
1 ENOCH 14:1 - The book of the words of righteousness, and of the reprimand of the eternal Watchers in accordance with the command of the Holy Great One in that vision I saw in my sleep.
In the Book of Revelation - "Revelation 20:12" - Books were opened, and they were judged according to those things written in those Books containing and pertaining their deeds and works. This Court of Final Judgment is not like the worldly Courts of men, which require plaintiffs, defendants, evidences, exhibits, summons, witnesses or even Lawyers, Attorneys, Solicitors, Advocates etc. This eternal Court of Final Judgment does not operate with those aforementioned in the list, neither does it have room for any attorney or evidences or claims, because Books do all those. Only Books do the attorney, lawyer, evidence, claims, plaintiff, defendant, objections, originating summons, overrules, etc, and all those jargons associated with court systems in this world. There is no room for those jargons in the Day of Final Judgment with God on the White Throne, except Books and no one argues with those Books that shall both be opened and written in the Day of the Final Judgment.
However, "Revelation 20:12" said nothing about Books being written or writing Books in that Day; but only said Books that were already written shall be opened in that Day of the Final Judgment. But I now tell you,Books will not only be opened and read in the Day of the final Judgment, but Books will also be Written in that day of Judgment.
In this world, when a Court Judge rules on any case, that ruling gets to be written inter'alia records of the court events pertaining the case.
Much more than so shall it in the Day of the final Judgment. The Books that shall be written in that same Day shall be known as"The Books of The Words of Righteousness" or "Books of the Reprove…"
This Enoch Verse above contains the first of such Books of the Words of Righteousness, and/or Books of Reproves. Enoch was co-author of the first Book of the Words of Righteousness, and of the Reprove of the eternal Watchers in accordance with the command of the Holy Great One in that vision he saw in his sleep. That was because Enoch witnessed and recorded the first "Final Judgment," which was the Final Judgment of the Watchers. Those Watchers have had their final Judgment, and there was no more Judgment for them even though they await the day all men shall have their own final Judgment. From the beginning of this Enoch Chapter (14) to the end of the next two chapters (16), are the walk through of the entire experiences Enoch had in receiving the contents in this Book.
1 ENOCH 14:2 - What I will now say with a tongue of flesh and with the breath of my mouth, which the Great One has given to men to converse therewith and understand with the heart.
There are many things the eyes of flesh cannot see, but the mouth of flesh can say them with its breath or the tongue of flesh can utter them by its spirit; and more importantly the heart of flesh can understand them with its spirit. You couldn't receive them through any receptor or gateway of the flesh, but you could both process them with a heart of flesh and publish them with the mouth or tongue of flesh using the breath of your mouth. Flesh & blood did not reveal to Peter what his tongue of flesh said.
Blessed are you Peter, for flesh and blood has not revealed these to you, neither did you receive these from the eyes of flesh; and but you have uttered them with the breath of your mouth, with the tongue of flesh among men, having believed with your heart of flesh.
Enoch spoke to the watchers, the words of righteousness, and of reprove of the watchers, in accordance with the Command of the Great and Holy One, using the breath of his mouth and the tongue of flesh as a son of man talking to sons of heaven.
1 ENOCH 14:3 - As He has created and given to man the power of understanding the word of wisdom, so hath He created me also and given me the power of reprimanding the Watchers, the children of heaven.
Among us, those who are given great wisdom and understanding, stand better chance of being made to judge angels. As you see with Enoch above, relating how God giving the power of understanding wisdom to man with how God giving the power of reproving the watchers or angels (children of heaven) to men, beginning with Enoch the first man to receive such grace to judge the children of heaven. Hence, being wise is required to being judge over angels (children of heaven). As it is written,
[I Corinthians 6:3-5 NKJV] — Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life? If then you have judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteemed by the church to judge? I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren?
To judge angels, one must be able to speak wisdom among those who are perfect, knowing angels are perfect beings.
[1 Corinthians 2:6] — "However, we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nothing:"
And knowing that angels of God in heaven are very wise and intelligent beings, from heaven they know more things in earth even more than human beings that were formed or born as dwellers on earth.
[2 Samuel 14:20] — "To fetch about this form of speech has your servant Joab done this thing: and my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all things that are in the earth."
Behold Enoch, who began to judge or reprove angels (children of heaven) as a son of man with the breath of the mouth and tongue of flesh, was one of those God empowered with the understanding of Wisdom. Wisdom and Judgment are one. When the breath of the mouth of the righteous man speaks wisdom, know that his tongue of flesh talks of Judgment. As it is written,
[Psalms 37:30] — "The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue talks of judgment."
1 ENOCH 14:4 - "I wrote out your petition, and in my vision it appeared thus, that your petition will not be granted unto you throughout all the days of eternity, and that judgment has been finally passed upon you.
The prayers of the fallen angels shall never be granted them throughout eternity because they have already had their "Final Judgment."
The final Judgment is the eternal closure against every "Appeal" or "Prayer" that the judged could make. For example, if a lower court gives Judgment, one can still appeal to higher courts and make prayers to higher courts. But if the Supreme Court makes Judgment, there can be no more appeal or prayer unless if there is a higher court greater than the supreme court.
God's Final Judgment cannot be appealed, neither can any prayer be entertained to offset or vary any part of the final Judgment. Therefore, those Petitions of the watchers or fallen angels shall not be granted because they had their final Judgment passed on them, shutting down the door to any prayer or appeal in all eternity.
If prayers could be granted after Final Judgment, then everyone would be appealing all Judgments and having their appellatus triumph over Judgment passed on them. At what time then do you tell a damned soul crying for mercy and second chance in hell, that it is too late to repent now because"Judgment is Set" ?
1 ENOCH 14:5 - Your petition will not be granted unto you. And from henceforth you shall not ascend into heaven unto all eternity, and in bonds of the earth the decree has gone forth to bind you for all the days of the world.
Here are the three basic substances of the divine sentence passed upon the watchers (fallen angels) for all eternity:
They can't reach God in prayer, they can't reach heaven in access, and they can't reach freedom on earth.So this Enoch verse above contains summary of the three most “Door-Shutting Denials” against any soul or spirit in any realm, and those three Denials are alsothree Bans: "Banned their Prayers from being granted, "Banned them from Heaven, and "Banned them from having Freedom, for all eternity.""" This means all hope is gone for all eternity to those who are thus banned - hence, "Anathema."These threeare the most fearful darkness, greater than any other darkness because to have hope in any darkness is to have light at the end of the tunnel but to have no hope at all for all eternity is to have a hopeless darkness where there can never be any sign of light (hope). These are some of the greatest woes to those condemned in hell under the most torturous darkness and perdition.
One of the greatest of open doors any one has now is “Prayers been heard, accepted and granted by God.” To lose this privilege of your prayers being heard and accepted by God is to lose salvation and lose the biggest part of your communication and power in speech (words), making your words significantly powerless because your prayers are not respected by God. Remember this, obtaining salvation is dependent on God hearing your prayers and accepting you: you cannot be saved if your prayers are not heard, for only those who call upon the name of the Lord (and the Lord hears them) that shall be saved.
Infact, the remaining two (accessing/opening doors of heaven and setting someone free/loose) are dependent on the first one (God hearing one’s prayers). If God cannot hear you, the heaven is shut against you, and your true freedom on earth is gone, leaving you in bondage or spiritual chain/cuff. This is because, both “Access to Heaven” and “Access to Freedom (Libration)” are two parts of the same “Salvation.” If you are not saved you cannot enter or access heaven, and if you are not saved you are not set free indeed.
But again, Salvation or being Saved depends on God’s hearing you to save you: thus, Salvation depends on Prayer/Petition in the name of the Lord. If the LORD’s Ear cannot hear you, then the LORD’s Hand cannot save you. Now go through these few bible references I cite below, and notice how “Save/Salvation” is related to “Hear/Hearing” of God in these bible references.
[Isaiah 59:1] - Behold, the LORD'S Hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither His Ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
[2 Corinthians 6:2][Isaiah 49:8] - (For He said, I have heard you in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I helped you: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
[Micah 7:7] - Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.
[Psalms 118:21] - I will praise You: for You have heard me, and You become my Salvation.
[Psalms 20:6-9] - Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed; He will hear him from His holy heaven with the saving strength of His Right Hand. [7] -Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God. [8] -They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright. [9] -Save, LORD: let the King hear us when we call.
[Psalms 145:18-19]- The LORD is near to all them that call upon Him, to all that call upon Him in truth. [19] -He will fulfill the desire of them that fear Him: He also will hear their cry, and will save them.
[Habakkuk 1:2]- O LORD, how long shall I cry, and You will not hear! Even cry out to You of violence, and You will not save!
[Psalms 34:6] - This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
1 ENOCH 14:6 - And previously you shall have seen the destruction of your beloved sons and ye shall have no pleasure in them, but they shall fall before you by the sword.
"You" here referred to the watchers (fallen angels) who had fornication or marriage with daughters of men, and had children that became giants through the daughters of men. Enoch spoke these words to them according to the Divine Decree that had gone forth in their final Judgment, saying to them, "Previously or before those three bans upon them, those watchers shall watch while their beloved sons or children are destroyed before their eyes, and they shall have no pleasure or possession of their children because they shall watch as their offspring shall be slain by the sword before their eyes." And that will be the last things those watchers shall be assigned to watch before darkness will blind them forever from seeing anything in the light.
This Judgment was later similarized to the judgment that Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, passed upon Zedekiah, king of Judah. This included killing all the sons of Zedekiah, making him watch as his sons were wiped out; and then blind him with darkness by removing his two eyes and then bind him in chains forever till the day of his death. As it is written,
[Jeremiah 52:9-11 NKJV] — So they took the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, and he pronounced judgment on him. Then the king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. And he killed all the princes of Judah in Riblah. He also put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in bronze fetters, took him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
1 ENOCH 14:7 - And your petition on their behalf shall not be granted, nor yet on your own even though you weep and pray and speak all the words contained in the writing which I have written.
You that asked me if the book of Enoch is canonized, did you get my reply, saying, the Book of Enoch was not canonized but the book of Enoch is inspired of God and the book of Enoch is scriptures. It is not being canonized that makes it scriptures, but being by the inspiration of God. As it is written,
[2 Timothy 3:16] — "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"
According to this Enoch Verse above, neither the intercession of the fallen angels on behalf of their sons nor their prayers for themselves shall be granted no matter how much they quote the scriptures that Enoch has written. It therefore means, the book of Enoch was the scriptures available for the fallen angels in their Judgment. By then, the entire Bible had not existed nor came into being when the Book of Enoch was the scriptures or the Book of the Words of Righteousness and Reprove of the Watchers, breathed by the Breath of God. No canonized book of the bible existed then, when the book of Enoch was the only scriptures sent to the watchers via their final Judgment.
But behold, even Enoch told them that it would be in vain for them to be quoting the scriptures (Enoch has written) in their prayers to God, because even if they quote all the scriptures in their prayers, yet their prayers shall not be granted. You know that thing about quoting the scriptures or it is written while praying to reinforce, persuade and argue, your prayer points: more like quoting the constitution (law of the land) before the court during one's prayer, petition or argument.
But the final Judgment is the end of all scriptures. Scriptures cannot be broken, but the Final Judgment cannot be altered or varied.The final Judgment is the final say: and since God has the final say, the final Judgment is therefore the final Scripture or the end of all Scriptures.
[Job 29:22 ICB] — After I finished speaking, they spoke no more. My words fell very gently on their ears.
1 ENOCH 14:8 - And the vision was shown to me thus: Behold, in the vision clouds invited me and a mist summoned me, and the course of the stars and the lightnings sped and hastened me, and the winds in the vision caused me to fly and lifted me upward, and bore me into heaven.
Like Enoch here, when a man says, “A vision was shown to me” instead of saying “I saw a vision,” the man is implying there was a “Revelation” and not just a “Vision or Perception.” Vision or perception alone couldn’t have enabled Enoch see these things, but by “Revelation” or “Being Shown” to him. Meaning they were revealed to him even though they were a vision.
In the Enoch Verse above, the vision was revealed to Enoch this in way:
This means there was inside the vision a “Trance” or “Abstraction” in form of a “Rapture” of Enoch into heaven, because Enoch was “Enraptured” or “Caught-up” into heaven by the Winds in the vision, following two basic protocols or important orders.
This is a lesson that when these two important or basic protocols are fulfilled to any man/woman, he/she too will be raptured into heaven. So what are these two basic protocols that must be fulfilled first before any of us can be raptured or caught up into heaven either in vision or in reality?
Well, not always in that particular order, but I followed the order used in this Enoch Verse. Some other order may have the “Protocol of Timing” first and then the “Protocol of Invitation” next/second, like in the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. But know this: - If the protocol of Timing comes first, then the protocol of invitation will hasten things or adjust things to serve the protocol of Timing. E.g. the coming of the Son of man (Jesus Christ) is depending on the protocol of Timing, which no man knows the hour or day except the Father in heaven knows when the Son shall come; but if that day comes, the protocol of Timing shall cause the protocol of invitation to make angels Shout, blow trumpets or go out to invite, call or gather those to be raptured into heaven.
But in this Enoch verse, the Protocol of Invitation was leading the Protocol of Timing because the Clouds issued the Invitation and the Mist summoned or called Enoch; and so the Protocol of Timing had to hasten or adjust things up by making the stars and the lightnings to hasten and speed up (accelerate) days (time) to match with the right/proper time for Enoch to be raptured or taken into heaven.
It was after the time or fullness of time was right that the Winds (Chariots) or whirlwind came and carried Enoch into heaven. All these happened in the vision revealed (shown) to Enoch.
Well, to enter heaven, you need to be properly invited (called) and you need to be properly timed. Even Elijah was not taken into heaven until the right day (time) came, and the prophets knew the day (time) had come for Elijah to be taken into heaven but not the same time for Elisha or the rest of the prophets to be taken into heaven. As it is written,
[2 Kings 2:1] - And it came the time, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, and that was when Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
But do clouds issue invitations or does mist summons someone into heaven? Some people only know clouds for rainfall or covering of the sun; but in heavenly terms, Clouds are much more because they are basically “Ships” or “Space-Crafts” vehicles and mobile tents (dwelling Places) to God, to angels and to Men of God. So, when the clouds invite or call, either God inside the clouds is the One Calling or Angels inside the clouds are the ones inviting, though you heard voice from the cloud. As it is written,
[Matthew 17:5-9] - [5] -While he yet spoke, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold aVoice out of the cloud, which said, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; you Listen to Him.” [6] -And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. [7] -And Jesus came and touched them, and said, “Arise, and be not afraid.” [8] -And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, except Jesus only. [9] -And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, “Tell thisvision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.”
According to this bible reference, the experience on the transfiguration of Jesus Christ was also a “Vision” just as Enoch was having a “Vision.” In the vision on the mount, Peter, James and John, heard Audible Voice from the Cloud speaking to them directly, and neither the transfiguration or appearance of Jesus Christ nor the appearances of Moses and Elijah could scare those three men as the voice from a cloud did to them. Only that Voice got Peter to really shut up and listen. The Pillar of Clouds by day, which became Pillar of fire by night, that led Moses and Israelites in the wilderness, spoke and invited Moses. As it is written,
[Exodus 24:16-18] — The glory of the Lord rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day [God] invited Moses out of the midst of the cloud. And the glory of the Lord appeared to the Israelites like devouring fire on the top of the mountain. Moses entered into the midst of the cloud and went up the mountain, and Moses was on the mountain forty days and nights.
Again, the Clouds first received Jesus Christ before Heaven: (Acts 1:9).
[Acts 1:9 AMPC] — And when He had said this, even as they were looking [at Him], He was caught up, and a cloud received and carried Him away out of their sight.
1 ENOCH 14:9 - And I went in till I drew nigh to a wall which is built of crystals and surrounded by tongues of fire: and it began to affright me.
Enoch entered heaven and began seeing “Built Structures,” and “Wall” precisely. By “Built” I mean it was not just created but constructed: and thus we are looking at a “Construction” and not just a mere “Creation.” You know how atheists and skeptics have argued that the creation was a random act or accident that does not justify the existence of an intelligent Creator; but no one argues with a construction or built structure being evidence there was a Builder(s). “Built” here implies it did not grow up like plant or by reproduction, but by edification.
And because the wall is built with Crystals (pluralized or diversified), the wall is therefore a “Glass Wall” because crystals are basically Glasses and they are clear. Have you been into a Glass House before? And because the Crystals used in building that wall were pluralized or diversified, it means they were not crystals of the same substance but crystal of different precious stones as listed in these bible verses:
[Revelation 21:18-20] - And the building of the wall of it wasof jasper: and the citywas pure gold, like to clear glass. And the foundations of the wall of the citywere garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundationwas jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald; The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
Enoch went inside heaven and came near to a built wall, built of crystals and the wall was surrounded by tongues of fire (instead of buckets of flowers) for decoration and watchfulness as if those tongues of fire were external security lights by the walls.
And then looking at the wall began to terrify Enoch, as looking at the rims of the eternal Wheels would terrify Ezekiel in “Ezekiel 1:18.” Many things in heaven command dreadfulness by appearance as part of their makeup and respect. This is because the “Fear of God” is part of the inspiration and architecture incorporated into the creation or construction of significant things in heaven. So you that want to go into heaven should prepare and brace up to face the most fearful things and dreadful Beings in true realities of Life. That all men should know that truly, the fear of God is the Beginning of Wisdom, the Beginning of Eternal Realities. There is no horror movie that is more dreadful than beholding eternal realities built for the fear of God. Anyone who does not fear God even on earth is a fool; and there is no way any action can go unpunished if there was no fear of God attached to the action. Therefore, God attaches “Fear of God” in every eternal detail, and man must attach “Fear of God” in every action and word they do and say on earth. Fear of God must be found in all things to sustain them without attracting punishment or destruction upon them. The sins you committed are showing there is no fear of God in your eyes, and so those sins are mocking or insulting God in another man’s conscience (heart): for another man’s conscience or heart is judging your sins in his heart, and saying in his heart, your sins show you don’t fear God. Therefore, your sins mock God in another person’s heart or conscience, saying you don’t fear God. As it is written,
[Psalms 36:1-3] - The transgression of the wicked said within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes. For he flatters himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful. The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he has left off to be wise, and to do good.
Is there fear of God in every word or action you make? Seeking the fear of God in something is same as seeking the foundation of wisdom inside that thing: for the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom and knowledge.
Now, even though Enoch was summoned to come up into heaven, he still met a wall on his way and he had to pass through the wall to access his high calling. Hence, he had to go through any of the Gates or everlasting Doors.
1 ENOCH 14:10 - And I went into the tongues of fire and drew nigh to a large house which was built of crystals and the walls of the house were like a tessellated floor made of crystals, and its groundwork was of crystal.
The door through which Enoch entered into the Glass House of Heaven was the Tongues of Fire, which became like a Portal to him. So to enter and go through, beyond the dreadful wall, Enoch went through a Fire that was actually “Tongues of Fire.” The difference between these “Tongues of Fire” and the those tongues of fire that fell upon the church on the day of Pentecost when they were filled with the Holy Spirit is that those tongues of fire were “Cloven, Splitted, Fragmented or Divided” tongues of fire that was shared among the disciples in the upper room as if one mantle of Grace was fragmented and shared among over hundred persons. But the Tongues of Fire through which Enoch entered into the Throne Room of God were not cloven or fragmented.
Later you will understand that entering through the cloud is not so much different from entering through the fire. The same Pillar of Cloud by day became Pillar of Fire by night, and same cloud Moses entered on Mount Sinai appeared like a devouring fire in the sight of the rest of the people who were not invited to enter with Moses [Exodus 24:16;18].
And behold, by going through that portal of the tongues of fire, Enoch entered into higher level closer to where he could enter into the realms of seeing God on His throne. Even in heaven, there are levels or higher realms, and some doors or portals will take you to the Topmost levels, other doors or portal will take you to just a higher, lower or few levels (realms) different from where you are. But the Tongues of Fire led Enoch close to a large Glass House or House built of Crystals. He was not yet by the Throne Room of God, but he was by the topmost room in that realm and needed to enter into another higher realm from there before he could reach the Throne Room. So let’s say, this was inner court tabernacle, and one more portal for him to enter into the Holy of Holies (Throne Room of God).
But behold the makeups of this glass House which I call the Inner Court Tabernacle: The Walls (plural) of this Glass House was like tessellated floor, meaning it was as if the Floor Tiles were used as Wall Tiles in the patterns of the Wall finishing used on the walls of crystal. And the groundwork or paving was of crystal (singular, and perhaps the crystal of Gold). Therefore, both the walls and the floor were built with clear glass (crystals), and yes, there is the crystal of Gold that is also clear glass. As it is written,
[Revelation 21:18] - And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like to clear glass.
1 ENOCH 14:11 - Its ceiling was like the path of the stars and the lightnings, and between them were fiery cherubim, and their heaven was water.
The Ceiling (Roofing) of the inner court Glass House of Heaven had the appearance of agitated Stars and flashes of Lightnings, with Cherubim of fire in their midst under water-stormy sky. — Like to some Translation.
Now in this Enoch Verse, the Ceiling of the Glass House was basically so open (transparent) that it was easy to see through the ceiling into the Stars, Lightnings, Cherubim, Waters or Heavens above. To give an earthly example of it, I recall seeing a video of a glass (transparent) floor, having waters in tank underneath with lights lightening the living fishes that swam in the water tank underneath the glass transparent floor in that room; so that walking on that floor was literally like walking on the waters of sea.
Supposing we tweak that to illustrate this: —Then, ** instead of the Floor, let's say the Ceiling; ** instead of water tank underneath, let's say Waters Heaven Above; ** instead of fishes, living creatures and lights in the water tank underneath, let's say the Fiery Living Creatures (Cherubim of fire), Stars and Lightnings above the "See-Through" Ceiling. This Ceiling was not just Transparent or a See-Through, but was far more better Telescope than those used by scientists in studying stars and objects in far distance above. Yes, even the waters above the heavens and the living creatures under them could be seen through this Ceiling.
Yes, there are waters above the heavens since the day God made the Firmament and divided the waters above the heaven from the waters (seas) below the heaven on the second day (Genesis 1:6-9). As it is written,
[Psalms 148:4] — "Praise Him, you heavens of heavens, and you waters that be above the heavens."
It therefore means that the Holy of Holies, the Throne Room of God, is above these Waters and sited on Beams that sit in the Waters above the heavens. As it is written,
[Psalms 104:2-4] "God cover Himself with light as with a garment: God stretched out the heavens like a curtain: God lays the beams of His chambers in the waters: God makes the clouds His chariot: God walks on the wings of the wind: God makes His angels spirits; His ministers a flaming fire:"
It also means that God sits on the Waters above the heavens, and those waters above the heavens are called "Flood." As it is written,
[Psalms 29:10] — "The LORD sits on the flood; yes, the LORD sits King for ever."
Now, we need not tweak that earthly example I mentioned above, seeing from the perspective of God's Throne Room: for then the waters would be underneath the Floor like I saw it in that video, having living creatures, stars and lightnings, underneath the Floor like those fishes and lights.
1 ENOCH 14:12 - A flaming fire surrounded the walls, and its portals blazed with fire.
Did you just read that "God makes His Ministers Flaming Fire" (Psalms 104:4)? Behold, a flaming fire surrounded the walls, and its "Portals or Doors" were blazing with fire.
Imagine seeing one of such dreadful fire, and yet that was one of the Doors or Portals to enter into the realms of your higher calling. This God and His deep relationship with Fire: He Himself is a Consuming Fire. We are servants to the God of Fire, who may be accessed through Fire.
Even the Glass Walls were transparent and See-Through, and one could see through the Walls that a flaming fire surrounded them, and their portals (doorways) blazed with fire.
1 ENOCH 14:13 - And I entered into that house, and it was hot as fire and cold as ice. There were no delights of life therein; fear covered me, and trembling got hold upon me.
Though appearance gave much glory to this Glass House, feelings found neither pleasure nor comfort in it. According to feelings, dwelling in the house meant exposure to both hot fire and freezing cold at the same time because the air-conditioning of the house are with two extreme and opposite temperatures that could not neutralize themselves though opposite, hot and cold. They were not lukewarm/neutral, and yet they were neither all hot nor all cold: rather they were extremely hot and cold.
Feelings found no pleasure or no delights of life in that room. Instead of Fun, there came Fear and Trembling as seizures and waves of fevers to terrify anyone advancing in that room. So what's the security or protection for? What treasure or pleasure exists in that Glass House that was so furnished and fortified?
Well the treasure or pleasure that House had and secured was "TheEntrance Portal, Corridor or Passage, into the Throne Room." That in itself is a great treasure and secret worth protecting and housing. In other words, a Doorway, Portal or Access Points Lobby, (into the most glorious Room) became the hidden treasures for which a gigantic House of Crystals was built and furnished.
Can you build a large house just for the security and protection of an important Doorway that's hidden within that house, and nothing else feels comfortable or pleasurable inside that house including the air-conditioning and heating of the house, to discourage unwanted dwellers in that house? This house is not a comfort zone, but there's Access Networks and Links into the very Presence of God where there's fullness of joy and pleasures at His Right Hand forevermore.
[Matthew 7:14] — "Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads to life, and few there be that find it."
1 ENOCH 14:14 - And as I quaked and trembled, I fell upon my face and I beheld a vision, and lo! there was a second house, greater than the former, and the entire portal stood open before me, and it was built of flames of fire.
Allow the fear of God and the trembling to make you fall, instead of making you run away from it. In other words, better to allow the fear of God to overcome you, than to allow the fear of God to chase you. When you fall under the fear and trembling of God as Enoch did in this Enoch Verse above, God will then raise or exalt you into standing up on higher ground, higher realms or higher levels. But when you flee from the fear of God (like those men with Daniel when the Vision came or those men with Saul on the road to Damascus when the vision came), you may not see the visions as Enoch saw when, as Saul (Paul) saw when he fell or as Daniel saw when he did not flee or run like the men with him. As it is written,
[Enoch 140:7-8] — "And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell on them, so that they fled to hide themselves. Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength."
Therefore, this is where "Falling" is better than "Fleeing;" and dying for it is better than living a coward. For those who fell shall receive grace and ability to see visions, dream dreams and rise from the dead. Therefore,
[Proverbs 24:16] — "A righteous person may fall seven times, but he gets up again. However, in a disaster wicked people fall."
[Micah 7:8] — "Rejoice not against me, O my enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light to me."
[John 12:24] — "Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it stays alone: but if it die, it brings forth much fruit."
This is the faithful roadmap: "Whoever would save his life (fleeing) shall lose it; and whoever shall lose his life (falling) for the sake of the Lord shall find and keep it."
Enoch did not flee, neither did he drew back nor backslide; and he fell on his face. Immediately he fell on his face, he found the Vision that contains the Portal (Door) into the very Presence of God the Father in the Holy of Holies. Have you ever fallen under the anointing before, I mean quaking or shaking anointing that you couldn't stood but fell and slept?
Behold the description of this Second or Latter House: It was greater than the former.The glory of the Latter House shall be greater than the former(Haggai 2:9).
This greaterness was not just in glory but also in size and in all ramifications of goodness. Moreover, the former house was built of crystals, but this second House was built of "Flames of Fire" meaning it was constructed, erected or built inside "Blazing Fire" or "Vibrating Fire" as in when Goldsmith forges things in oven fire. This is to make it endure eternity by passing through God's Fire.
[Mark 9:49] — "For everyone will be salted with fire."
[1 Corinthians 3:13-15] — "The day will make what each one does clearly visible because fire will reveal it. That fire will determine what kind of work each person has done. If what a person has built survives, he will receive a reward. If his work is burned up, he will suffer [the loss]. However, he will be saved, though it will be like going through a fire."
And as soon as one portal (door) opened to Enoch, all the other portals (doors) into that same House also opened to Him. This meant all the Doors (Portals) work in unison as one: to open one is to open all, and to close one is to close all. Do you now understand why the King of Glory asked the "Gates or Everlasting Doors" (plural or all of them) to open for Him to come in, instead of just asking only one of the Gates or Doors He was to use to open? Asking One of them to open is asking all of them to open.
[Psalms 24:7] "Lift up your heads, O you gates; and be you lift up, you everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in."
This is called ministering "Entrance in abundance" seeing all Doors would be opened for he who shall enter the kingdom of heaven. Written:
[2 Peter 1:11] — "For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ."
1 ENOCH 14:15 - And in every respect it so excelled in splendor and magnificence and extent that I cannot describe to you its splendor and its extent.
In every admiration this House/Room so surpassed in magnificence and splendor and degree that I cannot label to you its glory and its extent. The differences were so clear and far apart that they became indescribable by any human reference or metaphor.
In few words, it was beautiful beyond description, too marvelous for words, too wonderful for comprehension, like nothing ever seen or heard: Its goodness was infinite, its depth of love was immeasurable, and so was its expanse in size. It was simply “Excellent.”
Like someone said, the greatest beauties on earth have no place to begin compared with the indescribable beauties and glories in Heaven. Another man said, “Neither Heaven nor the Second death were as we thought or dreamed they were when we dwelt on earth; and if they had known on earth what they now know here, they would have lived their lives very differently on earth.” No wonder Lucifer was so angry he banished from heaven, and is still very angry he lost that place that he vowed to stop as many people as he can from entering there.
1 ENOCH 14:16 - And its floor was of fire, and above it were lightnings and the path of the stars, and its ceiling also was flaming fire. And I looked and saw therein a lofty throne, its appearance was as crystal, and the wheels thereof as the shining sun, and there was the vision of cherubim.
Describing the Throne Room:
Enoch described its floor as product of fire. What about the Glass Floor with Flood of Water underneath? The book of Revelation described the “Throne Room” and mentioned the Floor of Flood Waters as a “Sea of Glass;” and thereby using the word “Sea” to describe the waters or flood in heavens above. As it is written,
[Revelation 4:6] - And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
But Enoch here described the Floor was of fire, so how do we relate? Well it became “Sea of Glass mingled with Fire;”and that was where those who overcame the beast and his mark, 666, stood before the Throne inside the same Throne Room. As it is written,
[Revelation 15:2] - And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
Surely:
[Psalms 29:3] - The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thunders: the LORD is upon many waters.
Enoch also mentioned the path of stars and lightnings was above the Floor. He mentioned the Ceiling was flaming fire.
Then Enoch focused at the Throne:
The Throne was Lofty, and had appearance as crystal (Glass), and the wheels thereof as the shining sun (radiant Ball), and there was the vision of Cherubim (Rabim or Seraphim).
1 ENOCH 14:17 - And from underneath the throne came streams of flaming fire so that I could not look thereon.
Streams of flaming fire issued from the base of the throne like a river source, but Enoch could not gaze long into the streams just as a man may not gaze long into the sun directly with his natural eyes.
Now, let us probe further into the mystery of these Streams of flaming Fire: I, Peterch, now tell you these three things about these Streams of Flaming Fire:
№ 1. I tell you, “These Streams of Flaming Fire” are what became “The Lake of Fire and Brimstone (Second Death).”However, they were not yet separated from the Throne of God, meaning they are not yet a “Lake” though they are Streams of fire and brimstone. When they are finally cut off from the Throne, they will move from being Streams into becoming “Lake,” and then they can be called “Second Death.”
This Throne of God, which is the Throne of Judgment, is on the Foundation of Righteousness and Judgment; and the Streams of Flaming Fire (Fire and brimstone) is cooking from the Base of the same Throne. Each time people and spirits provokes God into anger that kindles fire, they increase the cooking of the Streams of Flaming Fire that shall later consume the entire earth and all constructions and innovations of the whole world. As it is written,
[Deuteronomy 32:22] - For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
№ 2. I tell you, “The Beast (Antichrist) will lead those who shall be cast into these Fire and Brimstone while part of them are still Streams of Fire issuing from the Throne and the others forming lake of fire and brimstone. After that, the Dragon (Satan, Lucifer, the Devil) shall lead those who shall be cast into these Fire and Brimstone after the rain of falling Fire and Brimstone from heaven, and getting cut off from the Throne of Heaven. Then finally, Death and Hell shall lead those who shall be cast into these Fire and Brimstone when they shall become Lake of Fire and Brimstone (Second Death).”
Behold, this next bible reference from the book of Daniel reveals when the Beast (Antichrist) was cast into the Streams of Fire that was issuing from the Throne of God (Ancient of Days). As it is written,
[Daniel 7:9-11] - I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the Hair of His Head like the pure wool: His Throne was like the fiery flame, and His Wheels as burning fire. A fiery stream issued and came forth from before Him: thousand thousands ministered unto Him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.
Behold, this next bible reference from the book of Revelation reveals those who worshipped the beast or receive the mark of the beast may also be cast into the Stream of Fire while the Stream of Fire is still in the presence of God and His Angels, issuing from the Throne. As it is written,
[Revelation 14:9-11] - And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.”
Behold, this next bible reference from the book of Revelation reveals when the Dragon (Satan or Lucifer) was cast into the Lake of Fire during the raining of the Fire and Brimstone from God out of heaven. As it is written,
[Revelation 20:9-10] - And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Again, Ezekiel revealed these against “Gog and Magog”:
[Ezekiel 38:22] - And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
Behold, this next bible reference from the book of Revelation reveals when Death and Hell were cast into the Lake of Fire and Brimstone. As it is written,
[Revelation 20:14-15] - And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
In all of these, this is sure that “The Wrath of God is revealed from Heaven” (Romans 1:18). These things are coming down from heaven, not coming up from abyss. The Fire and Brimstone is coming down from Heaven, and so is the wrath of God coming down from heaven to and upon the earth and the sinners.
[Psalms 11:6] - Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
So when God comes, He comes with fire. The Coming of the LORD from heaven is also the Coming of Fire with the LORD. See Bible verses below:
[Isaiah 66:15-16 BSB] — For behold, the Lord will come with fire— His chariots are like a whirlwind— to execute His anger with fury and His rebuke with flames of fire. For by fire and by His sword, the Lord will execute judgment on all flesh, and many will be slain by the Lord.
[Psalms 50:3-4 BSB'19] — "Our God comes and will not be silent! Consuming fire precedes Him, and a tempest rages around Him. He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that He may judge His people:"
[Psalms 97:3] — "Fire goes before Him and consumes His foes on every side."
[II Thessalonians 1:8-10 NKJV] — in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, when He comes, in that Day, to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed.
№ 3. I tell you, “After These Streams of Flaming Fire issuing from the Base of the Throne is cut off forever from the Throne, they shall be replaced with Stream of Living Waters issuing from the base of the same Throne. But that will be in the New Heaven and New Earth, not in this old earth.”
Thus, instead of streams of fire from the throne of God, behold there shall be the new thing and then there shall be the Streams (Rivers) of living Waters of Life from the Throne of God and of the Lamb, having the Tree of Life in the midst thereof, all in the New Heaven and New Earth. That Throne will not be just the Throne of God alone, but shall be called the “Throne of God and of the Lamb” so that the Living Waters of Life shall issue from the Throne of Both God and the Lamb forever. As it is written,
[Revelation 22:1-3] - And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manners of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and His servants shall serve Him:
1 ENOCH 14:18 -And the Great Glory sat thereon, and His Raiment shone more brightly than the sun and was whiter than any snow.
The Throne is not just Glory to God, but God is the Great Glory to the Throne and He is the Great Glory that sits on any throne before that throne becomes great and glorious. Do not just desire any throne, but desire the throne on which God may sit with you thereon. Same applies to Table that has God sited with the Guests of Honors.
You saw a wonder of a woman clothed with the sun in “Revelation 12,” behold God is clothed with Raiment that is far greater than the Sun both in brilliance and in all ramifications.
[Daniel 7:9] - I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of Days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of His Head like the pure wool: His Throne was like the fiery flame, and His wheels as burning fire.
[Psalms 104:2] - God covers Himself with light as with a garment: He stretches out the heavens like a curtain:
1 ENOCH 14:19 -None of the angels could enter and could behold His Face by reason of the magnificence and glory and no flesh could behold Him.
[1 Timothy 6:16] - Who only has immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach to; whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.
[John 1:18] - No man has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.
Behold, thanks to the Lord Jesus Christ the Son of man (John 14:7-9), there are angels who behold the Father of God now (Matthew 18:10). And in the new heaven and new earth, men who receive the seal mark of God on their forehead shall see His Face.
[Revelation 22:4] - And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
1 ENOCH 14:20 -The flaming fire was round about Him, and a great fire stood before Him, and none around could draw nigh Him; ten thousand Times ten thousand were before Him, yet He needed no counselor.
[Daniel 7:10] - A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
Millions or myriads of ministers, stars and angels, minister to God on the Throne round about. However, their ministering to God does not include giving God counsel or teaching Him anything. God has never asked counseling from any one before. As it is written,
[Isaiah 40:13-14] - Who has directed the Spirit of the LORD, or being His counselor has taught Him? With who did He took counsel, and who instructed Him, and taught Him in the path of Judgment, and taught Him knowledge, and showed to Him the way of understanding?
[Job 4:17-19] - Shall mortal man be more righteous than God? Shall a man be more pure than his Maker? Behold, He puts no trust in His servants; and His angels He charged with folly: How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth?
[1 Corinthians 1:25] - Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
[Isaiah 29:14-16] - Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say, “Who sees us? And who knows us?” Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? Or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding?
1 ENOCH 14:21 - And the most holy ones who were nigh to Him did not leave by night nor depart from Him. And until then I had been prostrate on my face, trembling and the Lord called me with His own Mouth, and said to me: "Come hither, Enoch, and hear My Word."
Though all the angels may present themselves and come minister to Him on the Throne, most of them return or leave after the session to their posts, duties or levels. But there are those who never leave unless they are sent. These were the Most Holy Ones who were close or near to God, and they abide with Him in His Presence day and night without ceasing. These include the Seraphim or Living Creatures that are always with Him, and by the time Enoch was seeing this, there was nothing like the “Twenty Four Elders” then because the twenty Four Elders were from among men, not from angels. Well, after the Blood of Jesus Christ was shed, the Twenty Four Elders were then redeemed from among men to join those who remain in God’s Presence as Kings and Priests to God. As it is written,
[Revelation 5:8-10] - And when He had taken the Book, the four beasts and twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints. And they sang a new song, saying, “You are worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for You were slain, and have redeemed us to God by Your Blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; And have made us to our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
Enoch became the first man to be called among the twenty-four elders to come up to God there and hear His Word. In this Enoch verse, Enoch was still prostrate on his fallen face, trembling when the Lord called him with His Own Mouth, and said to him: “Come here, Enoch, and hear My Word.”
And though Enoch could hear God’s Word where he was, God still called him to come to hear God’s Word at the higher levels. This was the high calling of God to Enoch, and so for those whom God may cause to approach nearer to Him on high.
1 ENOCH 14:22 -And one of the holy ones came to me and waked me, and He made me rise up and approach the door, and I bowed my face downwards.
As soon as God has called Enoch and said that to him, one of the Holy Ones who abode in the Presence of God came to help Enoch achieve that calling. The help of angels and holy ones to you are more sensitive and reactive to the word of God to you, than to waiting for God to instruct them to help you. Somehow, God’s calling to man triggers reactions and helps of things towards the man to bring him into fulfilling God’s calling or commandment to him. This is how grace works according to the Words of God’s Mouth. Therefore, the Words of God’s Mouth are the Words of Grace; and man shall live by every Word that proceeds from the Mouth of God.
In His Presence, it is not just the Holy Spirit that is the Comforter, but also the Holy Ones are Comforters and Helpers.
