I would like to know what you all think about the lost books of the bible.. Books such as, Bel and the dragon, Tobith, Maccabees, Enoch, 1st clement, shepherd of hermes, gospel to the hebrews, etc.

What do you all think about it?

Should they be viewed as accepted?

What, what, what.... should we do?

Does anyone have a list of ALL THE KNOWN lost books of the bible?

I find that we lower the great esteem of our Most High Elohim when we box him and frame him by the limitations and the faults of man. To believe that our so called Holy Bible has the only books that Abba wants in it says that our Abba approved all that the same people have done to His Torah. This I cannot for one second accept nor can I see this belief having any Set Apart reasoning. The same men decided that Sunday worship would replace the Sabbath as Abba commanded. The same men removed Abba's True Name. The same men started the church, which many of us was part of due to the persecution of our fore-parents who were scattered. Yet, the awesome Most High found a way to restore all that the locust have destroyed (or tried to destroy). His language is being restored. His Name is being restored. His Sabbath is being restored and Praise Abba - His Books are being restored. There shall be a grand Restoration as His Truth and His Remnant are restored. I must agree with one thing, Brother John... it is so uncomfortable going through this transition of peeling off those things that have decieved us... because it disturbs our ruwach but when we give it to Abba to direct us, it becomes a deep desire and zeal for Truth.

I just keep thanking ABBA for teachers like Brother James and Brother Yehoshua and Dr. Kalu and others who are not on this site - and you too Brother John for you are closer than most of us... :) ~ I thank YAHUAH for the Set Apart persistence to restore these Truths with our brethern. I am in deep prayer that one day.... Abba's True Word will be published by His hand picked Set Apart men and women like them who continued to study and perhaps will be annointed one day by The Most High's Ruwach... Only through searching, seeking, uncovering will one be qualified and drawn and annointed by Ruwach HaKoDesh for such a major endeavor and accomplishment.

Yea... I dream big :) Well I guess that was my thought for the day.
My brother John, if we do some deep church history studies, we find that there were certain scriptures/Epistles that were undisputed: the 4 gospels, 1st & 2nd Corinthians, Galatians, However, 2nd Peter, Jude, Revelation, and Hebrews were on the chopping block. Why? Hebrews had an unclear author (obviously). Some speculate and say Paul did it, but its not his style of writing, and the Jews weren't his ministry, the Gentiles were. The other 3 were on the chopping block for the same reasons: they sounded like the and in certain cases QUOTED the Book Of Enoch. We as the Western branch of the Church cannot say that "our Bible has it all together", because the Ethiopic Church regards the Book of Enoch as scripture and reads it just as regularly in services as we do Matthew or Psalms! Did you know that the Book of Enoch had the 3rd most manuscripts at the Caves of Qumran (the Dead Sea Scrolls) than any other book in the Bible, and we use the Dead Sea Scrolls as evidence of our scriptures?

GOD inspired Enoch just he inspired any other Prophet in his day or ours. We within the Western Church, however, do not even take time to consider stretching our hands and voices to communicate with our sister churches in other denominations. Our views of "different denominations" is limited to Baptist, Pentecostal, Roman Catholic, Holiness, Apostolic, Methodist, Episcopalian, A.M.E., and so on. What ever happened to communications with the Ethiopic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Jerusalem Church, the Oriental Orthodox Church of Eritrea, and the list goes on............
