We are a little lower than the Angels.

But they minister to us.

And we shall judge them.

asuustrike2009:

The original rebellion was initiated by two angels of Lucifer called Belial and Leviathan. The two angels told Lucifer that he should be like God. The question Lucifer why should he work for God? And that he should be running things in the universe instead of taking orders from Yahweh. At first Lucifer declined. He refused to rebel against Yahweh. The lord casted those angels into hell for counseling rebillion,. This made Lucifer upset with God because they were his two closest friends. He told Yahweh that if he punished his friends he rather remain king in hell than to continue to be servant in heaven. Lucifer then left heaven on his own( at that time he wasn't casted yet) and went to hell to be with his friends. However, when he got there he didn't like the place at all. When he got there he realized that he had made a mistake rather than seeking for repentance and mercy he decided to fight Yahweh. Lucifer was able to convince 1/3 of the trillions of angels by appealing to them that Yahweh's government was unjust and dishonest. He told them that he would establish a better and more equitable government. He promised the angels greater positions of authority in the universe. Interesting Yahweh didn't interfer in what he plotted.he allowed them just as he gives moral beings the choice to choose. The battle started and there was war in heaven. The one third of angels fought together with Lucifer, Leviathan and Belial. They lost the battle and were thrown down to the earth.
You may be wondering how I got this? I got it through revelation, rhema


Ok....so the brother said it was from a book......which explains it more clearly.
We shouldn't take away Lucifer's role in this controversy.....
He wasn't swayed by anyone....sin arose in his own heart...
I guess where I'm having difficulty is the part about you saying that Lucifer was not wanting to rebel against God. Not only did he rebel, but he swayed 1/3 (of probably miliions) of the angels to agree with him.
Lucifer did that.....by himself.
Remember correct interpretation of scripture should be the basis for making statements....
However, i do tend to agree with a number of your posts in general.
This one.....ummmm....

Now we are a little lower than them.

But because of our status, we are heirs of the father.

Remember that they are not created in the image and likeness of the Father.


So, when are redemption is full (after the end of time) we shall be more than them. Note that we don't worship them even now.

Judgement means both in the positive term and negative.

We shall Judge them on the positive.

Rewards, etc. Angels who are with God are not condemned. We shall "allocate " who gets what.

That's the judgement. Our understanding shall be full them. To be able to execute the right judgement.

Remember that Jesus did not die for them?
We shall be greater than them.

Oh you are so ignorant man..

Angels?? Dude those guys are badass giant dominant authorities. You are yet to experience. You only talking based on what you read in a book and what your Sunday school teacher said.

If a demon can posses you and destroy you is it now an Angel who can destroy the demon that cannot possess and finish you? You are saying you are above Michael? Michael will rip you to pieces without breaking a sweat.

You are nothing like them. We are nothing like them. We are nothing but little pets before them. They are big, dominant, powerful, authoritative, strong and wise. Regarding God himself, you think God will choose you over his own kids? Dude, God made you to worship him. You are designed to bow at His feet. He is capable of making stones do the job if men won't. Such a powerful God, obviously, wouldn't compare his Kids to stones. Angels are His kids. We are just His inventions.

So friend, wake up from that dream world where you think you are something special compared to Angels. Angels don't even minister to you. Trust me. They don't. They don't even like us. You think they weren't so happy to kill every first born in the land of Egypt? Why haven't Michael gone down for Lucifer since? Why is Lucifer still alive tormenting humans? They dont care man.. God alone cares.

God is the one I recognise. I don't do angels. I don't like them. I like God smiley

Don't ask me anything about scripture and save me the lines.. I'm speaking raw from life experience. Till date I'll never forget.

I see.

From your statements,

Angels do not care but God cares.

Note that:

God owns them.

God gives them instructions and they follow.

God's Love for man is what you cannot understand.


God came down in the garden of Eden to fellowship with man.


He gave us his son. He created us in his image and likeness.

(His likeness is the creativity you find in humans. Technology, etc.)

Lastly,

God asked us to call him father.

Angels do not have that right.

But we saw his son. Perfectly human like without wings.

That's the image of the Father.

Angels have wings.Jesus does not.we do not.

Angels have every right to call Him father. At what point did God mention directly that Angels cannot call him father? They can. They were with him before he made us.

God said ".. let US make man in OUR own image". Note the "US" and "OUR". That makes it clear that before God made man, he was with some people. We have no idea who they were. I guess Angels maybe I don't know. The point is, there are many creations of God before mankind.

Have you heard about the Sons of God? They were the angels (Watchers), that came down from heaven to take human women as wives for themselves. The Bible did not elucidate on this but having done my research, those Angels were called "Sons of God". Why? If they are Sons, who is their father? See it now?

Angels are bred in His true image not us. If not, why can't we fly like them? Why can't we strike lightening and thunder like they can? Why can't we use powers like they do? Why are we mortal?

I think Angels were his original family and later he wanted to do more so he made man. Nothing cool about us. Tomorrow he may send another flood to kill us all because He can. But why didn't he flood heaven to kill the angels? I think he likes his angels more

Paul said, he heard unlawful things

2 Corinthians 12:4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

Am having this feeling that even on earth, we can peep into the archives of heaven and with much prayer, we can establish ans build on earth, what is built in heaven

Some are bound in river Euphrates.

When the children of God has left this world,


Those in River Euphrates will be loosed.

Angels have visited some people.

or helped some people.

Yet, they didn't know.

They can appear in human form and minister to you.

Be sensitive. Do good to people. If anybody approach you for alms give it.



Command the Angels of God in Holiness.

And they will respond to you.
