THE OATH
One of the main reasons I love the Book of Enoch is that it tells us of the Oath that God enacted and encharged to the chief angels to keep the most important principles of Earth in place that make it habitable: its water supplies, its sea levels, durations of days and night year after year. These are essential for our ongoing existence and happiness. Love and wisdom guide these things in the heart of God. It is understandable that first and foremost the habitability of Earth and its sustaining of life would lead to certain fundamentals being established by God right from the start and set in stone as principles so there was stability on which other creations could be designed and made. So He sealed these fundamentals among the angels with a very important Oath. We take these things for granted: water being available, day following night, sea not crossing into the land beyond a certain point. I have seen buildings built right next to the high tide mark of the sea, such is Nature trusted to keep to the order it obeys. Yet without such an Oath there could be no such trust. And the Oath has always needed protecting. It does not go unopposed. Angels guard it from Satanic attacks. Think how Governments have to constantly defend their policies. Well this Oath is a policy that needs defending from opposition too, especially since the fall of the two hundred angels around 3300 BC. And it might be a further more massive fall prophesied by the Son of Man in Revelation will mean a great onslaught on the Oath when the Dragon leads a third of Heaven’s angels into rebellion. The power behind the Oath is strengthened - the Book of Enoch and the Holy Spirit seem to say - by the name of the Son of Man - His fame and authority invoked in His name and the ethic of His teachings and the faithfulness of His truthful testimony. The symbol of that name seems to be the cross. On this all life on Earth depends.
