I started life in one church. The minister that baptised me also married us.
I've been in churches where the Holy Spirit has just flooded the place, and churches where I've been just a number. Can't honestly tell you at this point how many different denominations I've attended, but have always found there are places that I have no business being, and places that are lukewarm, and places that are on fire for God and His teachings.
One verse that sticks in my mind:
Matthew 10:14
If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.
I don't have a 'home' church any longer, preferring to go where the Lord leads, and more often than not in the last 15 years, it's been to group studies in private homes.
Talk to your husband, he is your partner as well as head of the house. Together, talk privately with the minister and voice your heart, bring what is hidden to the light and judgement of the Lord.
You (yourself, your husband, and the minister) need to be in accord with this descision.
God bless,
Copper

I'm in the process of rereading Enoch now, thanks!
Read it several years ago, but didn't really study it as I was reading. Read it a second time a couple years ago, and made note to go back to it. Well, this is the third time around, and going slowly, using the Dead Sea Scrolls Bible as well as the NIV Bible. I've had a couple of people tell me that all I need is in the bible, and that may well be, but believe with all my heart, that the Lord wants us to know more of His ways, else these books that were excluded would not have survived to be found again.
The more I learn, the more I realise that I don't know a whole lot.
God bless,
Copper

I don't recall reading anything about it in the bible, either about the heavens, nor the 'types' of angels, and it's been many, many years since I first read about them. Somehow in my mind, I see the 'levels' of heaven more like the different sections of the tabernacle, with the curtain between the holy of holies, and the rest of the place. (Exodus 25, 26, & 27).
I know that the Bible says that there are seraphim, cherubim, angels and archangels, but also seem to recall reading somewhere that there are 7 that serve in each of these layers of heaven.
Perhaps it's in one of the books that was excluded from the bible….. hmmmm

God bless,
