Luke 20: 34-36 "Answering to them, neither can they die any more for they are equal unto the angels. and are the children of God being the children of the resurrection. Clearly stating here more proof of who he was, right?

Thanks sister, the whle script as she put it no one goofed I didn't feel to put the first part about marriage, but we are takinga about angels here and that we and them have a likeness so again, he never said he was better than the angels he said he was and or others that go to heaven inshAllah would be like that rewarded like the angels. Not above the angels like you all think he was right hand, that is Gabrial and Micheal up there and he made his thrown long ago before Jesus. Al hamdoullah more proof of the existance of the angels that never bend, he would not state the angels in that verse if not those who are sancified in marriage as such approved by the Lord. Those who say I don't read the bible and want to attack it, go correct your out of hand friends in faith cause they caused the onslaught of bible questions I was working towards invention and creation not distruction of your already tampered with book or books.

Lk 20:34 Jesus replied, “Marriage is for people here on earth. 35 But that is not the way it will be in the age to come. For those worthy of being raised from the dead won’t be married then. 36 And they will never die again. In these respects they are like angels. They are children of God raised up to new life.
I believe someone goofed.

The NIV states "for they are LIKE the angels"...
...but I don't get what this is proof of? That Jesus knew what the angels were like? I guess one could say that anyone could make the claim to know what angels are like... so I don't understand the argument.
try using Scripture in CONTEXT...

Jesus is the angel of the covenant.
Mal 3:1
Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come," says the LORD Almighty.

Um, wow- your only using a VERY small part of the scripture. I think its talking about people that have passed away from this life, but Im not sure.

Why the abiguity. What is your question/ point? Who he was?
What? I think i will let others answer your questions. Btw anyone in their spiritual body is an angel.

Jesus was not speaking of himself in this verse.
He was speaking of humans who die and are resurrected to heavenly life. They then "become as angels" in that they neither marry, nor are given in marriage.

Acts 2:31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of
Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh
did see corruption. 2:32 This Jesus hath God raised up,
whereof we all are witnesses. 2:33 Therefore being by the
right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father
the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which
ye now see and hear. 2:34 For David is not ascended into the
heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord,
Sit thou on my right hand,2:35 Until I make thy foes thy
footstool.
Isa.66:1,22,23;
Heb.1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in
time past unto the fathers by the prophets,1:2 Hath in these
last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir
of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 1:3 Who being
the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person,
and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by
himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the
Majesty on high: 1:4 Being made so much better than the angels,
as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my
Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a
Father, and he shall be to me a Son? 1:6 And again, when he
bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let
all the angels of God worship him. 1:7 And of the angels he saith,
Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
1:8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and
ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
1:9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore
God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness
above thy fellows. 1:10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast
laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works
of thine hands: 1:11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and
they all shall wax old as doth a garment; 1:12 And as a vesture
shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art
the same, and thy years shall not fail.1:13 But to which of the
angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make
thine enemies thy footstool?

You know... Angels can do things we can't do... Like not be able to be seen to the human eye, and etc., But they are messengers between God and humans. They are lower in rank than humans.
