ANGELS

 

 ANGELS, By  OUTCAST

 Most of us - hopefully all of us - have read about or heard about Angels. It appears to me that there was certainty regarding Angels in scripture. They are mentioned often. They take human form, speak to people, relay information from Our Father and give guidance or assurance. Of course, there is no shortage of theologians who have presented their perspectives including the claim that an angel in the Old Testament was actually Yeshua (a Christophany).

They even appeared in scripture to people in formation as a massive army prepared to defend God's people when needed.

Beyond scripture, there are no written confirmations of their visits as their are no holy writs from God providing information. There have been reports written when people tell of someone who appeared, rescued or comforted, and then disappeared. That leaves us to our imaginations, discernment, and perhaps personal testimony of times when we have been amazed by events that, for us, tells us that we have experienced a visit from one who "must have been an Angel."

But then, we have 21st Century eyes and a western mindset. We've had movies, computers, TVs, and a very much fallen nature that we deal with. Angels for most have become simply a fantasy. We have encumbered our minds with things of this world and have grown jaded in our thoughts for things not of God.

Do we think that God has changed? Has scripture changed? If angels were the truth thousands of years ago, has that truth ended?

Of the scriptures and the specifics we are given, it seems that we like to make assumptions about those Angels. Some of those assumptions deny scriptural reports, apply our modern scientific analysis, and make claims for which there is no proof. But, lacking proof does not make a view inaccurate. It simply means that a person has an opinion.

Can any of you remember a time when a person suddenly showed up, helped you when you were troubled, and were never seen again?

Heb 13:1–2 Let brotherly love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

 
Do any of us suspect we are seeing the opposite anywhere? Have we witnessed evil in such a degree that we suspect there are demons at work among us? I certainly believe that our nation has been under an assault for a long time now.

Eph 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.

I pray to not become jaded to Yahweh's reality. I want to recognize that Angels may still walk about serving God, and I still want to know when to sit back and note when evil forces are at work. I do recognize how this world can alter my view of things if it becomes all that I see. I pray that God gives me open eyes.
