1:14 亞當的七世孫以諾,曾預言這些人說:「看哪,主帶著他的千萬聖者降臨,
1:15 要在眾人身上行審判,證實那一切不敬虔的人所妄行一切不敬虔的事,又證實不敬虔之罪人所說頂撞他的剛愎話。」
1:16 這些人是私下議論,常發怨言的,隨從自己的情慾而行,口中說誇大的話,為得便宜諂媚人。
1:17 親愛的弟兄啊,你們要記念我們主耶穌基督之使徒從前所說的話。
It was also about these that Enoch, the
seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, "Behold, the Lord comes with ten
thousands of his holy ones, to execute judgment on all and to convict all the
ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they have committed in such an
ungodly way, and of all the harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken
against him." These are grumblers, malcontents, following their own sinful
desires; they are loud- mouthed boasters, showing favoritism to gain advantage.
But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord
Jesus Christ.

這段經文引用了《偽經》的話,不代表《偽經》因此就可變《正典》,也不代表《偽經》的話不可取。因為《偽經》中仍有真理,但是這取捨不是我們決定,是聖靈在運作,使人認出何為上帝的話。
這一段話也是警戒那些不符在上帝權柄之下的人,不管是言語和行為,凡違背上帝的人,在末後審判的日子,都站立不住,不管是公開或私下反對上帝,上帝都一一紀念。
這也告訴我們要要常常靠耶穌基督的寶血來除罪,不然沒有人能在上帝面前站立得穩。
