ANGELS
(Angelology : Doctrine Of Angels)
SECTION 1: DEFINITION

* What are angels?
* the wrong definition is they are messenger


1. Angels Are Ministering Spirits
Hebrews 1:13-14 But to which of the angels said he at any times, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?


SECTION 2: NATURE OF ANGELS

1. They Can Enter Lock Prison Doors
Acts 12:7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.

2. They Can Open Prison Doors
Acts 5:19 But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,

3. They Can Ascend In A Flame
Judges 13:19-20 So Manoah took a kid with a meat offering, and offered it upon a rock unto the LORD: and the angel did wondrously; and Manoah and his wife looked on.
20 For it came to pass, when the flame went up toward heaven from off the altar, that the angel of the LORD ascended in the flame of the altar. And Manoah and his wife looked on it, and fell on their faces to the ground.

4. They Can Travel Great Distance In Great Speed
Daniel 10:12-13 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
* The angel came down to earth to deliver a message to Daniel and he was delayed for 21 days that’s why he said he came late. Now if one can travel between that time limit from many light years away from the universe, that is great speed.

5. The Are Wiser Than Man
2 Samuel 14:20 To fetch about this form of speech hath thy servant Joab done this thing: and my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all things that are in the earth.
* They know all things that are in the earth

6. They Are Very Strong
Psalms 103:20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

a. Examples Of How Strong Angels Can Be
(i) They Are Able To Wipe Out 185,000 People

2 Kings 19:35 And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.

(ii) God Sent a Pestilence By An Angel To Wipe Out 70,000 People Which Covered A Great Distance From Dan To Beersheba
2 Samuel 24:15-16 So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men.
16 And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshingplace of Araunah the Jebusite.

(iii) They Have The Power Of Lighting And Able To Roll Back The Stone Which Took Several Man To Roll
Matthew 28:2-3 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
3 His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:


7. Immortal
Luke 20:35-36 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
36 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.
* we are going to be like the angel which cannot die

8. They Don’t Have Blood

* Angels live in heaven. The bible shows that blood is not allowed in heaven

Revelation 8:3-4 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

57 Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.

6. The Angels Who Left Their Habitation In Heaven Are Reserved In Everlasting Chains Under Darkness Unto God's Judgement
Jude 1:6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

7. Michael The Archangel And His Angels Fighting Against Satan And His Angels. At The End, Michael And His Angels Win. Satan And His Angels Will Be Cast Out Of Heaven Into The Earth. Thats When Antichrist And Satan Will Start

8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
