Ive always believed that god could send angels in any form he would like. I think about Michael the chief angel.. not that it matters because Jesus is the main focus and I understand that.

Sometimes I wonder Ive read somewhere about the diffrent heads? I know I read it somewhere in the bible, Im just really curious. I really am trying to learn more stuff as I move foward in my young christian life.

An angel could take on any form. It could be the boy next door who helped a lady with her bags. It could be the man who fixed a heater in the middle of winter. A passerby who saw you crying a gave you a hug. A stranger who gave you some money for the bus. An angel is someone who just happens to come into your life for a moment to help you on your way. We are each angels and we can all do God's work by just being love to one another.

I have the perfect thing for you to read. Please read this book if you want to know all about angels and their purpose in our lives.

Angels On Assignment

It's a book about a Christian man who God has appointed for a special purpose to reveal the spiritual world to his people. In the book the author talks about God revealing angels to us, what they look like, where they are at, how they guard us, and how God appoints them to do special things in your life and what they do and their purposes in other people's life. It changed my life and I believe I had a blessing from God reading this testimony. It's one of the best heaven testimonies I have ever read and the author made it available online for all to read!

While I agree with most of the above, people are not angels...angels are an entirely separate class of beings created by God. We can sometimes do good deeds for people like angels, but that doesn't make us one. It has become cliche in our society to refer to some people as "angels", like "she's such an angel, always caring and looking out for others", etc.

Hebrews 13:2
Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.


God Bless,
Mercy

Genesis 19:1-5 And there came two ANGELS sat in the gate of Sodom: and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground.

5 And the men called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the MEN which came to thee this night?

One of several passages in the Scripture that support Hebrews 13:2

Peace!

A messenger conveys a message of loving-kindness, it's a matter of the heart.
