@indonesia-phil saidStudy some of the Eastern religions, Hinduism and Buddhism. It actually helps a lot with understanding Christianity. All these religions have small pieces of the puzzle and when you put all together it appears to be make a lot of sense.. Admittedly Christianity does have the biggest piece of this puzzle.
Are you smoking something?
What are you 'guessing' was not a big deal? Killing all the creeping things and the fowls? It may have been quite a big deal for the creeping things and the fowls, or are you saying that he/she/it didn't really kill them, but merely moved them to the planet Zog?
Im not smoking anything. Its just that I have been through the age of wondering what the hell is going on with God, and questioning life and death When you get out that stage your perception of these things will change. Life and death is nothing.
@sonship saidIt's a figure of speech. But, of course, you knew that already. And, of course, you know ~ already ~ exactly what it alludes to. However, of course, you have answered in this disingenuous, sanctimonious way anyway.
Go back over my posts for as many years as you need and find one in which I argued about some number count of angels.

@fmf saidAngels on a 'needle's point' = 'needless point'
@lemondrop
what do angels do for fun?
Crowd onto the head of a pin and then wait for "theologians" like sonship to count them.
A neat little play on words

And what do angels do for fun? They visit supermarkets, although only the few here will know what I'm talking about.
Ha ha!

@rajk999 saidSo you're wondering about god and questioning life and death; well done, I think most people do that during their adolescence. As to life and death being 'nothing', I bet you'd be hacked off if someone killed your rabbit and ate it for Sunday lunch. If you don't have a rabbit treat it as a metaphor, it's a metaphorical rabbit.

@sonship saidWhat on Earth are you on about? Why do you so often end up just making stuff up about the person you are talking to in order to engage in what you claim is "discussion"?
Maybe if you weren't such a chronic liar you wouldn't have to label all other behavior as "sanctimonious".

@lemondrop saidThe angels of God (the good ones who did not follow Lucifer) are "ministering spirits sent forth to serve". The proper angels serve those who are to be co-heirs with Christ in God's great salvation.
anything?
is it an eternity of blah?

@sonship saidNot all. If you get that from Paul then Paul is either wrong or you misinterpret Paul. More likely the latter. Most of the angels are there to serve GOD and to do the will of GOD. Just a very tiny part of the angels serve the needs of man. There are angels fighting Satan and other evil beings. There are angels involved in the creation of new worlds all over the universe. Looking after the needs of men must be one of the most insignificant part of the activities of God and the billions of heavenly host.
