Where Do We Fit Into This Picture?
The Bible makes it perfectly clear that all who accept God's offer of mercy and salvation through His Son Jesus Christ will inherit and inhabit the new universe for His pleasure, glory, and the expansion of His Divine Family. We shall be kings and priests ruling under Jesus Christ (Revelation 1:6; 5:10). How awesome! Are you willing to accept that fact? It is speculated by some that the entire universe will one day teem with life and the redeemed of the Lord will inhabit it.
"And He that sat upon the throne said, 'Behold, I make all things new.' And He said unto me, 'Write: for these words are true and faithful.' And He said unto me, 'It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son'" (Revelation 21:57).
1jo 3:1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
1jo 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
Ga 4:5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
Ga 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
Ga 4:7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Ro 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Ro 8:15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
Ro 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
Ro 8:17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Ro 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Ro 8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
Re 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Re 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
Re 2:27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.
Re 2:28 And I will give him the morning star.
Joh 17:2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him
I affirm not only belief in God the Father and in Jesus Christ as Creator, Designer, and Lifegiver, but in the Holy Bible as the inspired revelation of Almighty God (Psalm 12:6,7; 119:89; 2 Timothy 3:16). You must now choose whom you will believe and obey: the speculations, ideas, and theories of menor the inspired Word of God. MY earnest prayer is that the Lord God of Israel, the Almighty Creator of the infinite universe, will grant you wisdom to make the correct decision and the faith to believe and obey His Word.

The Bible does not teach that there are "guardian angels." Humans become like the angels when they die, in the sense that they no longer marry or are given in marriage (Matthew 22:30). However, we do not become angels of any sort (Psalm 8:5).

No. The Bible says that there is no life after death (until Jesus comes).
"For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun." Ecc. 9:5,6 This clearly says that when a person dies they know nothing forever. But, in the Bible, forever does not always mean for eternity. It can mean for an age or a generation, and in this case, until Jesus comes and raises the faithful dead and take the righteous to heaven. The wicked dead are raised later. If you want more proof, check out Isa. 38:18.

No, angels have never been incarnate beings.
However, our loved ones are there for us whenever we need them, simply by thinking about them. In the spiritual dimension we have the ability to bi-locate so we can be in 2 places at once. You will always be able to look over your loved ones.
We can however become a spirit guide to someone else, meaning we take on a responsibility to be there during a persons lifetime with them. We all have angels and spirit guides and loved ones with us at all times. We need only call upon them for assistance, at any time.

enable's say there have been parent angels and that they have been lifeless human beings, does no longer yours be somebody who died concerning to the time you have been born? i'm sorry, however the Bible does not point out your assumption could be authentic. The residing understand that they shall die: however the lifeless understand no longer any element, neither have they to any extent further a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. additionally their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they to any extent further a element for ever in any element it is complete below the solar." "there is no artwork, nor gadget, nor know-how, nor understanding, interior the grave, whither thou goest." Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6, 10. The lifeless don't understand something till the resurrection. Even the belief of parent angels does not look interior the Bible. a minimum of Bible gateway isn't hitting it. it is extra a superstition. God does defend us with angels.

No we do not become angels when we die. Angels are created beings. God created them when he created the heavens and earth. When we die our spirits go to heaven and when Jesus comes back we will get a spiritual body. Do you remember that satan was an angel? And he was thrown out of heaven. Yes GOD himself created the devil ................ something to think about eh ?

I think you can help to watch over the pre-deceased, but angels are an entirely different species of spirits.
