Dr. Patrick Heron was born in Dublin in 1952. At 24 years old, he had an epiphany while reading the Bible. He became interested in bible prophecy concerning the "end times" about 1996. In 1997, his first book Apocalypse Soon was published and became a bestseller in Ireland. It entered the Irish bestsellers list after an interview with Gareth O'Callaghan, on RTE radio, who said he "read it in one sitting and was gripped." There has recently been amazing interest to-date in this new book The Nephilim and the Pyramid of the Apocalypse, published by Kensington Publishing, which Patrick believes is the FIRST EVER book proving overwhelmingly who built the pyramids and why.

Prophecies of the Antichrist - Part VIII
by Patrick Heron
Posted: 13:00 January 31, 2008
Enoch was the seventh from Adam and was born circa 3382BC. There are only a few verses that mention Enoch which conclude in Genesis 5:2 which tell us that, “ Enoch walked with God: and was not: for God took him.” This implies that Enoch did not die but was taken to heaven where he was shown visions of the future.
Although Enoch is not part of the canon of scripture now, at one time it was. The ancient scholars were well versed in the Book of Enoch. It was obviously well known to Jesus and His disciples, for His brother, Jude, quotes directly from Enoch in his epistle.
“And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these saying, behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints.” Jude 14
There are many phrases in the Book of Enoch which directly relate to passages in the New Testament. Much of his writings also relate to prophecies that are to occur in the time of the Apocalypse. Fragments of Enoch were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls which are reckoned to date back to 300BC.
It is important to reiterate that Jude, one of the sons of Mary and Joseph, quoted directly from this most ancient of books. For this gives the writings of Enoch gravitas and informs us that it is indeed a divinely inspired book from which we can learn. Many would say that if it is inspired, then it would already be included in the canon of scripture. But too often we are inclined to “put God in a box.” Perhaps the Almighty did not want this book included but rather kept it separate so that some new revelation could be gleaned from it in these, the Last Days. For I have found nothing in the Book of Enoch that contradicts anything in scripture, rather, it enhances and copper fastens the revealed Word of truth.
