Question

Do you believe in Angels - if so, does it make your life any special?

Answer 1

I not only believe, I have experienced....no my life is not special, it is an ongoing journey but much to be thankful for my Lord.....

Answer 2

Personally I believe in angels and yes they are god's messengers.

God used angels in the past to accomplish his will. For example one angel killed about 180,000 assyrians in one night. Also when daniel was thrown into the lion's pit he was saved whereas one family placed there were devoured.So they are very powerful.

Nowadays, we don't really have such tremendous experiences. We do know from the bible that they can 'manipulate' circumstances in accord with god's will. For example if one prays to find religious truth they might arrange for thet person to encounter the right person. They might provide relief in a distressing situation through some means; though not some kind of evident miracle.

Answer 3

I certainly do. Jesus had dealings with them as did so many in the Scriptures. I believe they do God's will and if we have faith I am sure they have an unseen but real part in our lives.

Jesus said some have entertained angels unawares.

There has never been any proof of angels so no.

Answer 11

I believe in them, it doesn't make my life any more special than your or any ones. Everyones life is just as special in my opinion. I have had a friend who has seen an angel and a good man i know could see them too. I'm not sure if they were making it up but i try to believe they are not

Answer 12

Well the definition of an angel is a messenger from God and yes I do believe some people can bring something of God into the world.

Answer 13

Here's a description of an angel from Revelation 10:1-3.

"Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars. ... He planted his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land, and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion. When he shouted, the voices of the seven thunders spoke."

If there were such creatures, and there are less mild descriptions in the Old Testament, they'd cause panic and mayhem. They have various functions, but those functions include military ones, wreaking vengeance on the enemies of the Israelites (such as killing the Egyptian firstborn).

Generally, biblical angels aren't good news.

Of course there were angels in other Near Eastern religions, including the religion of the Babylonians, and Zoroastrianism, as well as Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

Cherubim are interesting; they were winged beasts, like horses or bulls, with the torsoes and heads of men at the front, who wielded fiery swords to protect Babylonian temples or the biblical Garden of Eden.

I don't believe they exist, but reading about them is interesting.
