ANGELS:
DENIAL OF

Anyone who wants to can put a film of unbelief over his or her eyes and thus deny the existence and activity of angels. But in doing so, he or she is denying clear biblical teaching.

Some protest the discussion of angels, saying, “Let’s be practical!” By which they mean, “Let’s limit our considerations to three-dimensional, sense-perceived objects.” There is a day coming when the answers to our questions will be plain. On that day we will discover that the ministries of the angelic beings are indeed practical and very real.…

We are living in a world full of God’s created beings—many of them not seen by us or those around us. We ought to thank God for the angels and for God’s providential circumstances every day. As one of the old saints long ago remarked, “If you will thank God for your providences, you will never lack a providence to thank God for!”
