I believe in angels and always have done, I believe we each have a guardian angel to protect us in times of need, I believe if you see a white feather its a sign an angel has been round and has left their calling card so as to speak, you should pick the feather up make a wish and blow it back to the angel, don't ask for money though, they are there to grant you love and happiness not money and riches, I honestly don't care what people think of me for believing in angels, I just do and always will.

Answer 3

Yes I believe in Angels

Answer 4

Angels are beings.
They were made by God....and No human can ever be one!
They are to help God...and some are quite huge...

Each are quite different, and there are a few different kinds...e.g.
Seraphs-Cherub's-Archangels-
Angels...Each child the Bible says has its very own angel.

They can be the fiercest of Warriors..and the swiftest of Rescuers.

One well documented story is a woman on a train, some guys got on, and started to beat-up other people.When they got to where she was sitting...they quickly left.

They were asked by police, why no attack on her...and they told Police that she had two very large men sitting on eighther side of her.She was asked later who they were, and being a Christian woman...told the truth!...

That she had travelled alone that day, with no one with her.She also said she had no idea, of any problems on the train.
One pastor has told me how, an awesome figure was in church one night, it was that of an angel...with wings spread out...and was at least 15-16feet in size.

Answer 5

I believe there is an angel in each of us. (like when someone you know comes out of no where and is there to help you with something you thought was impossible)
Also, that we all have guardian angels who really do keep us from harm. We also have angel spirits of our loved ones who have passed on (If you ever need help just ask and they will help or give you a sign)
I also believe that from time to time there is a temptation angel,who trys to get us to be mean and nasty. When this bad angel interfers, I try to pray to my guardian angel and angel spirits and ask for an intervention from them.
I believe people at certain times can see their angels and do get help from them or a sign (message) of what to do
I know many who have seen angels.

Answer 6

I believe in angels because the scriptures talk about angels. This is based on Bible context only. They are referenced in at least 34 books of the bible, and the word itself close to 275 times. Their creation is written in Colossians 1:16 and in Job it says before the creation of the world. They have intellect, emotion, and will. they are spirit beings. They never die, they are distinct from humans, and they have great power. The Archangel is named Michael. There are other types Guardian, protect children, Cherubim guard the holiness of God, Seraphim are related to the worship of God, and there are also ruling angels, elect angels, and Chief Princes. They minister to Believers, To Nations, and to unbelievers. This might be more than you wanted to hear.

Answer 7

Angels are God's messengers. They are sent to do His will and assist his servants on the earth. There's at least one instance in the Bible where God asked the angels for their opinion on how to handle a matter. It's not that God didn't know, but he wanted to let someone else come up with an idea.

Answer 8

Angels are superior beings created by God before the human race. They have no earthly baggage so therefore hold a higher position in Heaven than us mortals. ( As do unborn children) Angels are Gods messengers and he gives us each a Guardian Angel to protect us. We only have or need one Guardian Angel...but can always call on other Angels to help us when in trouble. I believe strongly in Angels...and their God given power.

Answer 9

Angels were created to worship and serve God. They do His bidding.
They are God's messengers, His servants, His warriors.
They are not cute little cherubs - they are mighty and strong. Some of them are HUGE. The warriors are just that - they are rugged, huge, powerful and fast.
Messengers can be in any form - human or angelic, male or female.
Angels sent to protect us do so at the request of Jesus, when we pray for them, however they will follow HIS will, not ours.
Angels sent to guard something (ie the garden of Eden) are sentries who do just that.

I will say that I have experienced the sight of one angel. While praying for protection for a bunch of people within a work place, I envisioned an Angel sent by God to do just that. He knelt at a corner of our building (it's 2 stories high) and curled his body over the building with his wings wrapped entirely over his body and the building. this would make this angel about 200' tall. We are now out of that building - and he is no longer there that I can sense, but again, it may be the will of God for me NOT to be able to sense or see him.
That's just one of my experiences. :) It was very exciting, thrilling and enthralling all at once.

Answer 10

There is an angel behind me all the time to stop me from falling..Sometimes I find small white feathers which I believe is a sign to remind me he (yes, its a HE) is still there. And no, I dont normally believe in spiritual 'things'.

Answer 11

Yes. Angels do whatever they are commanded to do by God and were created from light.

They are a bit like computers though and never disobey God. Sometimes they can take the form of men and communicate the wishes of God to humans:

To believe in angels is part of the basic belief of muslims:

(8) It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness, and each and every act of obedience to Allah, etc.) that you turn your faces towards east and (or) west (in prayers); but Al-Birr is (the quality of) the one who believes in Allah, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, the Prophets and gives his wealth, in spite of love for it, to the kinsfolk, to the orphans, and to Al-Masakin (the poor), and to the wayfarer, and to those who ask, and to set slaves free, performs As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), and gives the Zakat, and who fulfill their covenant when they make it, and who are As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.) in extreme poverty and ailment (disease) and at the time of fighting (during the battles). Such are the people of the truth and they are AlMuttaqoon (pious - see V.2:2).
( سورة البقرة , Al-Baqara, Chapter #2, Verse #177)

(Remember) when the angels said: "O Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allah gives you the glad tidings of a Word ("Be!" - and he was! i.e. Iesa (Jesus) the son of Maryam (Mary)) from Him, his name will be the Messiah Iesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam (Mary), held in honour in this world and in the Hereafter, and will be one of those who are near to Allah."
( سورة آل عمران , Aal-e-Imran, Chapter #3, Verse #45)
