Answer 1

The Seraphim (singular "Seraph") are the highest order of angels, serving as the caretakers of God's throne and continuously singing his praises: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts. All the earth is filled with His Glory." It is said that they surround the throne of God, singing the music of the spheres and regulating the movement of the heavens as it emanates from God. It is also said that such a bright light emanates from them that nothing, not even other divine beings, can look upon them. It is said that there are four of them surrounding God's throne, where they burn eternally from love and zeal for God.

The Seraphim have six wings; two covering their face, two covering their feet, and two that they fly with.

Unlike other Seraphim who had six wings, Lucifer was featured to have twelve wings.[citation needed]

The Seraphim are mentioned in Isaiah 6:1–7 [1]

[edit] Cherubim
Main article: Cherub
The Cherubim (singular "Cherub") are beyond the throne of God; they are the guardians of light and of the stars. It is believed that, although they are removed from man's plane of reality, the divine light that they filter down from Heaven still touches the lives of living things.

They have four faces: one of a man, ox, lion, and eagle. The ox-face is considered the "true face", as later on in Ezekiel the ox's face is called a cherub's face (Chapter 10.) They have eight conjoined wings covered with eyes, and they have ox's feet.

Cherubim are considered the elect beings for the purpose of protection. Cherubim guard Eden and the throne of God.

Their rank among angels is uncertain but they are always categorized in the First Sphere. Some believe them to be an order or class of angels; others hold them to be a class of heavenly beings higher than angels. Cherubim have perfect knowledge of God, surpassed only by the love of the Seraphim.[citation needed]

The Cherubim are mentioned in Genesis 3:24 [2]; Ezekiel 10:17–20 [3]; and 1 Kings 6:23–28 [4].

[edit] Thrones
The Thrones, or, more properly, the Ophanim, are unusual looking compared to the other celestial beings; They appear as a beryl-coloured wheel-within-a-wheel, their rims covered with hundreds of eyes.

They are closely connected with the Cherubim: "When they moved, the others moved; when they stopped, the others stopped; and when they rose from the earth, the wheels rose along with them; for the spirit of the living creatures [Cherubim] was in the wheels." (Ezekiel 10:21).

[edit] Second Sphere
Angels of the Second Sphere work as heavenly governors.


[edit] Dominions
The Dominions, also known as the Hashmallim, or the Lords, hold the task of regulating the duties of lower angels. They receive their orders from the Seraphim, the Cherubim, or God Himself, and are responsible for ensuring that the cosmos remains in order. It is only with extreme rarity that the angelic lords make themselves physically known to mortals. Instead, they quietly concern themselves with the details of existence. They are also the angels who preside over nations.


[edit] Virtues (Strongholds)
The Virtues, also called or Strongholds, lie beyond the Thrones and are equal to the Principalities. Their task is to oversee groups of people. They inspire living things to many things such as art or science.

It is unclear from where the name of this order originated.


[edit] Powers
The Powers are angelic beings shaped like brightly colored, hazy fumes. They are the bearers of conscience and the keepers of history. The angels of birth and death are Powers. They are academically driven and are concerned with ideology, philosophy, theology, religion, and documents pertaining to those studies. Powers are the brain trusts: a group of experts who serve as advisers and policy planners. They are also the warrior angels created to be completely loyal to God, thus the only order created after the fall. No Powers have ever fallen from Grace. Their duty is to oversee the distribution of power among mankind, hence their name.[citation needed]

Paul used the term powers in Colossians 1:16 [5] and Ephesians 1:21 [6] but he may have used it to refer to the powers of nations, societies or individuals, instead of referring to angels.

[edit] Rulers & Authorities
These two types of angels are equal in power and authority. Rulers develop ideologies whereas Authorities write the documents and doctrines.[citation needed]

Both Powers and Rulers are involved in formulating ideologies. However, Powers are all-encompassing whereas Rulers are more focused on specific lines of thought.[citation needed]

Authorities specialize in putting those ideas into print and in producing actual documents.[citation needed]

Paul used the term rule and authority in Ephesians 1:21 [7], and rulers and authorities in Ephesians 3:10 [8]. He may have been referring to the rulers and authorities of men or societies, instead of referring to angels.

[edit] Third Sphere
Angels who function as heavenly messengers.


[edit] Principalities
The Principalities are ruling-class angels. They are shown wearing a crown and carrying a sceptre. They lie beyond the group of archangels. They are the guardian angels of nations and countries, and are concerned with the issues and events surrounding these, including politics, military matters, commerce and trade. One of their duties is to choose who amongst living things will rule.


[edit] Archangels
The Archangels are usually considered the second lowest order of the Third Sphere; these angels tend the larger arenas of living endeavor and act as the administrative leaders of the Heavenly beings. An archangel is usually given a task of great importance to men. According to Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite's Angelology, however, the Archangels lie just above the lowest of the angel orders, the common Angels.[citation needed]

The word archangel is used only twice in the canonical Scripture (but several times in the Septuagint): once to refer to Michael the archangel [9] and the other to refer to a being believed to be Gabriel during the return of the Lord (Gabriel is preferred over Michael since he is the messenger angel). [10]

The belief that Satan was a seraph before his fall from heaven is a more modern development. This belief is based on the idea that (a) the seraph who fell was a King on earth[citation needed]; and (b) the matchup in Revelation against the archangel Michael seems to show that he was an archangel [11]

Some insist that archangels aren't a separate order but that the traditional Catholic archangels (Michael, Raphael, Gabriel and sometimes Uriel) are either cherubim or seraphim in addition to being archangels. This could mean that instead of being a rank in itself, Archangel is a military-like title given to certain highly trusted, or highly capable angels. Sometimes, Lucifer is also considered to have been an archangel before his fall. As God's "second in command," he was likely not below the Seraphim/Cherubim, which gives support to the argument.


[edit] Angels
The Angels are the lowest order of the angels, and the most familiar to men. They are the ones most concerned with the affairs of living things. Within the category of angels, there are many different kinds, with different functions. The angels are sent as messengers to men.

An example of such an angel as portrayed in popular media was Michael Landon's character on the show "Highway to Heaven".

Answer 2

There are different types of angels who perform different functions on God's behalf. Cherubs guarded the entrance to the Garden of Eden after Adam and Eve sinned; Seraphs are seen in vision surrounding God's thrown and ministering to him are are called "Noble Ones" by Isaiah who is the only one who mentions them. Angels are also messengers who have been used to deliver visions, such as the vision of Revelation that the Apostle John received. They have also been used to execute God's judgment on wicked nations.

Finally all of these are under the authority of Michael the Archangel, who is the resurrected Jesus Christ.

Answer 3

Each angel has a specific duty given them by GOD.

In every army ther are generals and those beneath.

Jesus the Son of GOD is the commander of the Lords army. The Archangel is the general/. All others fall in line.

Answer 4

Although there are different orders of angels, they were all created perfect. But Jesus talks of a rebellion where one originated lying and murdering. An Internet publication describes how we will too will be like angels: What Happens When Jesus Comes.

Answer 5

Each one is a direct creation by God Psalms 148:5
The arch angel is Jesus the highest ranking angel
then there is Serafs, cherabs. and a bunch of others they have personalities like we do and can choose to do bad like they did. Satan and that crowd. Genesis 6 and Jude 6
