Angels = Messengers = Employees, if you follow the ancient Hebrew.
Angles aren't anything special or beyond our comprehension.
They are just more...real.
And looking at one, like a man with a rifle, you might be seeing a soldier in defense of your freedom, or a mafia hit man sent to cap you.
Fortunately, they have to announce their allegiance before pulling the trigger, and supply name, rank, and mission (if properly interrogated).
I'm still puzzled by the majority *confused* reaction to this apparently universal protocol.
Ants, men, and angels are all subject to a common subset of laws.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.SO TRUE!!! Angels do NOT attempt to deceive in any way - or at least the ones who haven’t FALLEN don’t! It’s actually VERY EASY to ‘test’ an Angel, or a ‘spirit’ or ‘demon’ claiming to be one. AND the FEELING associated with any interaction with a true messenger of God Himself is one that CANNOT be understood unless you’ve actually “been there”. It’s something that really cannot be put into words - at least none I’ve ever found.
I liked your analogy of the soldier or the hit man as well... Sometimes they are a combination of both, if you will. ESPECIALLY if they are relaying a message pertaining to a CHOICE one is being asked to make.
