Guys, can you elaborate me what angels are? I have a report regarding this.?

Answer 1

Angels are the highest rank of spirit
they were not ever in human form
they are supposedly to watch over us here but this is not my feelings on it
i feel that the spirit realm is like a work place
you have the boss ... then you have the managers... assistant managers... supervisors.... and workers .... below which are the general public ( us )
now if we have an issue with that workplace ... we wouldnt speak with the boss or generally not with the manager either ...
we would first speak with the workers and possibly the supervisors
to speak with the boss or even the managers ... we would only be able to do so by appointment
just my thoughts on it :o)

Answer 2

I view angeles as being more like sub-contractors or field agents. They do have a boss, but don't punch a clock. They might have daily meetings but they are pretty much on their own handling problems and they must probably cover a given territory.

Angeles can be in human form. Jacob saw what one could view as angeles walking up and down the ladder.

An angel was placed by the Tree of Life with a firery sword.

There does seem to be a Boss (God) and functionaries, including one named Satan, another named Gabriel.

God's kingdom seems like a busy place and Angels do most of the work involved.

Answer 3

Angels are imaginary beings. Make up any facts at all you want regarding them to put in your report, since there is no logical way to distinguish one person's made up details from another person's made up details. If you are questioned about the source of your "facts", state that you have spiritual insight that is more reliable than any human source. There's no possible rebuttal to that.

Answer 4

Angels are a spirit being. The word 'angel' comes from the Greek word 'aggelos', meaning 'messenger'. They come in several known types:

* Cherubim (singular : "Cherub", plural often incorrectly translated as "Cherubims", pronounced : ker-ub[-im]) - The Cherubim have the body of a man, and have four faces : A lion, an eagle, an ox, and a man. They have four wings. Their feet are akin to that of an ox's hoof, but are the color of burnished and sparkling brass. Under each wing, they have a hand. Their appearance glows like that of a blazing lamp, encompassed by fire, and lightning emerging from the flames. [Dan. 1, Dan. 10]

A second form of Cherub is mentioned in Ezekiel 41:18-19. This type bears only two faces : that of a lion, and of a man. This is seperate from the first type, and is only mentioned this one time in the Bible.

The Cherubim's purpose is to act as guardians of Eden [Gen. 3:24], as a covering of places [metaphor : king of Tyre [Eze. 28:13], are above the mercy seat of the Ark of the Covenant [Heb. 9:5], metaphorically are God's Chariot [Psa. 18:10], and stand next to God's throne [Isa 37:16].

Cherubim are representative of the Trinity aspect of God (the Father labors as the ox, the Son is the Lion of Judah, and the Holy Spirit's protection as that of the wings of eagles, and that of the incarnate Messiah being born in the form of a man). They are also representative of the four beasts whom constantly praise God, in Revelation [Rev. 4:6-9].

They are the most commonly depicted angel of early Judaism.

* Seraphim (singular : Seraph, pronounced : sera -f[-im]) - Probably the littlest known about angel. They bear 6 wings : two are upwards, covering their faces, two are downwards covering their feet, and two are outstretched and used to fly. They are generally representative of fire due to one bearing a live coal in his hand [Isa 6:6].

The word "seraph" also describes a "fiery serpents". An image of one lifted upon a pole was created during the Exodus [Num 21:8], and are associated with the cockatrice (aka adder) and the viper.

Guardian - These are specific angels relegated to this duty, irrespective of what form whatever angel takes. "Guardian angel" is merely a job title and not a type of angel. Exodus 32:42 and Psalm 90:11 are about God sending angels to protect individuals, while Daniel 10:13 shows that angels also protect areas. Matt 18:10 mentions that children also have guardian angels who are at all times in the immediate presence of God.

Messenger - Messenger angels are the most commonly thought of angels. They take on a human-like appearance [irrespective of their natural state], and are simply the bearers of instructions [Gen 16:9], heralds of good news [Matt 1:10, Luke 1:19] or of bad news [Num 22:22].

Archangel - (pronounced ark-angel) - There are two mentioned in the Bible (Those mentioned in the Apocrypha are not mentioned here). Archangels are the highest ranked angels, and are especially noteworthy because they are the only angels that have names known to man : Gabriel (who gave prophecies to Daniel, and revealed Jesus' birth to Mary) and Michael (who argued and will war with Satan). There is no description of them, other than that Gabriel appeared to Daniel, like many messenger angels, as a man.

The Angel of the Lord - The pre-incarnate embodiment of God, such as The Burning Bush that Moses saw [Exo 3:2], and the man whom Jacob wrestled with [Gen 32:24-30].

Fallen Angel - These are the group of angels who rebelled against God with Lucifer some time before the creation of Eden [Jude 1:6, Rev 12:9]. 1/3 of the angels fell when Satan was cast out from Heaven [Rev.12:9, c.f. Isa 14:12]

Lucifer/Satan - The double symbology of Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 implies that Satan was once an angel, more specifically a Cherub, and due to the fact that he is named, possibly an Archangel. In the beginning, Satan started off merely as a deceiver and a murderer [Genesis 3], then later as an accuser of people and bringer of miseries [the book of Job], but as time progressed, Satan became prideful [Isaiah and Ezekiel, as dual-metaphors], and began to also outright tempt and bribe people into sinning, twisting the very words of God to seem in his favor, and was so arrogant as to place himself above Jesus and ask for something deserving only of God : worship [Matt 4].
