This is a quotation from Shakespeare's play Henry VIII, from a long speech by Cardinal Wolsey which is the only memorable speech from the play.
"I charge thee, fling away ambition
By that sin fell the angels."
The Angels he refers to are the Biblical "Fallen Angels". Lucifer's (satan) ambition was to become god over God (The Father) and he was exiled, cast down, to the Earth
Isaiah 14:12-14 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
I believe it was The Angels
In Dante's Inferno the protagonist (Dante) goes on a journey through Hell during which he encounters many different forms of sin and evil. The major allegory of Dante's magnum opus is that of human recognition of sin. By going through Hell, Dante recognizes the different forms of sin, which is necessary to redeem oneself of sin. Redemption comes after sin, and Purgatory (the second part of Dante's Diving Comedy) is the place of redemption in Christian lore.
Venice, Italy is the setting for The City of Falling Angels (1996) by John Berendt.
Sin and punishment
Frank Miller .
No. The good angels do not sin at all, they always do what is right.
They had free will until the fall. The ones who went with Satan (a third of them) are now damned forever. The ones who stood with the Lord are now sanctified, and can sin no more. It will be the same with us. Once we go to be with the Lord we will no longer sin, because we will think as he does.
According to religious beliefs, one-third of the angels fell with Satan.
The angels who fell with Satan were cast out of heaven and became demons, joining him in his rebellion against God.
The fallen angels do. (The ones that followed Lucifer known as Satan)
According to Christian tradition, the angels who fell with Lucifer when he was cast out of heaven are often referred to as demons or fallen angels. The exact number or names of these angels are not specified in the Bible, but it is generally believed that a third of the angels in heaven followed Lucifer in his rebellion against God.
Angels do not sin so they can not be forgiven. Only humans sin. Not only that, angels were given free will. They can choose to sin! But the consequences are severe because they cannot be forgiven. For us humans, we have NO CHOICE, sin is in us, that is why God sent Jesus to die for us so that we can choose like the angels.
A demon is a jinn. Jinn are made of smokeless fire (plasma), they have freedom to pick sin if they please. Angels do not have freedom to sin, they happily worship and follow God. The angels were made out of Light.
Yes, the Bible gives several accounts of angels sinning, i.e. Lucifer and his fall from Heaven because of his pride and greed.
The Father gave angels and mankind free will.
Not all, but some do because they fell it resembles fighting and violence, which is obviously considered a sin.
A Archangel would be called a saint because they are high-ranking angels in heaven, and since they are angels, they do not sin, so they would be a saint.
