Angels Are Among Us

Angels Are Among Us



             Patrick O'Reilly read the finest books, went to the best schools, and went to the fanciest 

churches.  Yet Patrick still disbelieved in angels.  I'm not saying he disbelieved in God, because he did 

believe in God.  He just did not believe in angels.  Whenever Patrick was asked why he did not believe 

in angels he would just shrug and give the answer, "because I've never seen any".

                 Then one stormy evening Patrick laid down on his bed and had a vision.  He saw in his 

vision a celestial being claiming to be an angel.  Patrick had his doubts since he saw no wings or halo 

on the being.   The angel was quick to point out that angels only had wings and/or halos in stories or 

paintings made by men.

                 The angel further explained that an angel could take on whatever shape humans found 

easiest to perceive them in.  The angel told Patrick that it had appeared to him as a humanoid since 

that was easiest to him to except.   The angel explained that the true purpose of an angel was to serve 

God and worship Him not man.  Furthermore, that is also man's basic purpose as well.  The basic 

difference was man had the choice whereas angles did not have the choice.

                 For if an angel was to decide for a split second not to serve God but to turn from Him they 

would go straight to Hell.  Human beings on the other hand had the choice of turning to the dark side,

and would be forgiven if they but asked.  To be an angel is to be a perfect "Messenger from God".

                 The ideas of angels having sex with human beings is a misunderstanding.  Angels are made 

without sexual parts, and even if angels did have sexual parts they are too busy to have sex.  Angels of 

the dark side are different though for they serve the deeds of the flesh.  Satan provides them with 

sexual parts so that they can seduce men into sin.

                 The angel then told Patrick one other myth of men is that when people die they become 

angles.   The truth is that God makes angels as they are with no beginning or ending, sorry people no

matter how good they are do not become angels.  There are some rare people who live on earth that 

live as angels being A-sexual.  These people usually live to serve God, and are most usually found to 

be writers, professional students, caretakers, and teachers.  

                   After the Angel had said all these things the angel disappeared in the flash of a light.  

Patrick woke up and said, "Angels are among us."  Patrick found that he did finally believe in angels.

Self Pleasing

                                  Once upon a time in the Other Land lived a girl who did not believe in God, nor did she believe in the faith of the Church she went to.  She was just an active participant from the  fellowship she got from the congregation.  I might add that this kind of member pleased Satan.                                     The girl's name was Alice, and she went to services only for the pure enjoyment she  she could receive from it.  For Alice was out to please Alice and no one else.  This did not please God, but as I said earlier, did please Satan!    Satan had other workers in the Church who were there to please themselves as well.  God: however, was always hard at work sending His messengers to solve this  problem.                                   One day a new family moved into the Other Land who was most faithful and  true to God.  Their last name was Godhead, and they had a son about Alice's age named Harry.  Harry was good looking and was therefore

I Will Not Forget You

                             Isaiah 49:15 says, ".... Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you." Strongs says the word forget here means to mislay, to behold, to advise, from want of memory or  attention not all, forget, cause to forget.                            Joshua 1:5 says, " I will not leave you nor forsake you"   Strong's says here, "Commit  self. fail, forsake, fortify, help, leave destitute, leave off, refuse,                             In Joshua 2414-28 Joshua gives the Children of Israel the choice over serving God or  serving false gods.  Even after Even after warning them they say they say they will be true to  God, but as we know not long after Joshua's death the Children of Israel turn from God and forget Him. (Judges 2:11-13) Even so God sold them into bondage and forgot them for a while.                            Even so God turned His back on world when we crucified His Son (Matthew 25:45- 53).   At this time God forgot al

Luke 22:32 "...Strengthen Your Brethren."

                   To strengthen your brethren means to build one another up.  We are told this in Hebrews.  3:13.    Which comes from the Greek word parakaleo, meaning to call near, invite, invoke, (by  imploration, exhortation, or consultation) beseech, call for, (be of good) comfort, desire, exhort,  (given) exhortation, entreat, pray.                 According to Thayer's it is to call to one's side, call for summon, indicating the purpose.   Which may be done in a way of exhortation, entreaty, comfort, instruction.  A good example of this  is what I hear that one of the brothers in the church does daily that I go to when he sends out the  scriptures through text to certain individual's phones.  This type of thing strengthens the brethren.                The way we exhort one another today is done differently than in times past.  In times past they would live in tribal communes and things would be done afoot.  Today it is all done by phone, e-mail,  or social media, as
