Does God continue to create angels?

I believe that whenever someone dies and goes to heaven they come angels!

Are angels male or female?

Scripture says: "The same day Sadducees came to him, who say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him a question, saying, "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies, having no children, his brother must marry the widow, and raise up children for his brother.' Now there were seven brothers among us; the first married, and died, and having no children left his wife to his brother. So too the second and third, down to the seventh. After them all, the woman died. In the resurrection, therefore, to which of the seven will she be wife? For they all had her." But Jesus answered them, "You are wrong, because you know neither the scriptures nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven."

It appears that angels do not marry, so it would appear that the question of male and female does not arise.

AnswerAngels are "sexless spirit beings," according to The Bible, that, when they manifest themselves to be seen by the human eye, appear as "men."

"...there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me..." (verse 18).

Is the angel of the Lord the same as the angel of death?

Angels are supernatural messengers that God uses as He wills. Some Bible translations get it right when they differentiate between the angel of the Lord and the 'Angel of the Lord' in that the lower case angels are just that performing God's tasks. But the 'Angel of the Lord' is none other than the 'preincarnate Jesus Christ' (see Genesis 22:9-12; Exodus 3:1-2; 4:1-16; and Judges 13:6-24).

These spiritual messengers also carry out God's judgment upon the sinful peoples and are referred to as 'angels of death' (see Ezekiel 9; 2 Kings 19:35; Isaiah 37:36; and Hebrews 2:9).

Both Michael and Gabriel are archangels, but they have different duties. Michael is the warrior and Gabriel is the messenger. There will never be any conflict between those two archangels.

Does Archangel Michael have blond hair?

If angels exist in reality, they are pure spirits that can not be seen, unless perhaps they take on the appearance of a human. Another view is that they exist only in our imagination and are therefore in our imagination we can give Michael any colour hair that we wish.

Is Sepatiel is an archangel?

There is no angel named Sepatiel, the closest is Sepatael, which is a fallen angel of dischord in the halls governing the lower layers of the pit and who guards the fallen throne. The suffix -el means "of god" as one of the oldest names of God is "El" which means 'all things.' Sepati does mean seat, so Sepatiel would translate to literally "The seat of God."

No,not exactly,maybe in a way they are,because they protect people,but the police are just humans,and sometimes they may not be protecting like they should,because they dont see everything,in the other hand guardian angels are send from heaven(god).not by humans that sometimes might be wrong.I believe theres a big difference.

The statement below is wrong. God speaks about His children choosing sides. He speaks of no longer knowing the name of His child once their head has been turned and they made the decision to not live a life for the Lord, completely denying His exsistence. Lucifer was selfish, Gods most beautiful angel. But his selfishness led him to want more power, putting himself before God. Because of Lucifers falling, he was given another name satan. He is no longer a blessed being of God's. Lucifer was Satans name before he died, and became Satan.

This is why there is death today, because Satans selfishness. God never created the world with death, He created the world by speaking life. He is not God of death. Earth is no longer our home, Heaven is. Heaven is were Gods followers will forever live, and Hell is where Satans followers will forever perish.

God clearly stated one day Satan will die and be defeated.

____________________________________(Wrong Information Below)________________________________________

Lucifers name means "the light bringer". He is NOT Satan. Satan and Lucifer are in fact two separate beings. Lucifer is a fallen angel. Satan is Gods arch-enemy. The fallen angels and demons are Satan's followers.

How are the two seperate beings if the bible states that they are the same being? What religion is this.....

The Bible speaks of: "...an innumerable company of angels..." which God created. So, if the Dragon, (Satan - Rev.12:9), drew "one-third of God's angels" along with him in his rebellion (Rev.12:4)... stars represent angels, according to the Bible (Rev.1:20): Then, one-third of an innumerable company of angels must certainly represent a thousand-thousands of angels... not 12. Nor does the Bible name the demons, with the possible exception of "Legion." "...My name is Legion: for we are many." (Mark 5:9) "...Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him." (Luke 8:30)

Minor Notes:

Sammael is often understood as the original name of the leader of the fallen angels, though it was never made clear that it referred to Lucifer. Satan simply means "Betrayer," and the one we call Lucifer is often referred to as "the Great Betrayer." Lucifer is 'The Great Betrayer' simply because he was the brainchild behind the origins of the fall.

Fallen angels are not demons, demons are the offspring of Lillith, the first wife of Adam, according to Jewish scripture. They are also described as particularly ugly and malformed, as they were all products of her incest with her own offspring.

There are MANY Fallen Angels, but a few of them are named in the Book of Enoch. It is also true that about one-third of the angels did fall, but there are some inconsistencies in these other answers. Lilith was NOT the first wife of Adam. That is completely untrue. Lilith however is a Fallen Angel who supposedly in folklore gave birth to all the creatures of the night.

Fallen Angels ARE demons. But demons and Satan himself are not ugly and putrid as myth says. Satan and the demons are beautiful unimaginably attractive beings. This is how they seduce and deceive and this is how the fallen angels were corrupted, because of their pride in power, knowledge and beauty.

The word Hasatan, often shortened to Satan is Hebrew for Adversary, which is another word for Enemy. Satan is not Lucifer's name, but it is a title that was given to him after God damned him from heaven.

Sammael is also not a former leader of the Fallen Angels. Sammael is the Fallen Angel of Death in Jewish beliefs and is often depicted as being Satan, but he is not. The Christian archangel of death is Azrael.

In Enoch 69:4-12., there is a list of the names of the fallen angels.

Yeqon - "one who misled all the children of the angels, brought them down upon the earth, and perverted them by the daughters of the people"

Asb'el - "one who gave the children of the holy angels an evil counsel and misled them so that they would defile their bodies by the daughters of the people"

Gader'el - "he who showed the children of the people all the blows of death, who misled Eve, who showed the children of the people (how to make) the instruments of death (such as) the shield, the breastplate, and the sword for warfare, and all (the other) instruments of death to the children of the people"

Pinem'e - "demonstrated to the children of the people the bitter and the sweet and revealed to them all the secrets of their wisdom. Furthermore he caused the people to penetrate (the secret of) writing and (the use of) ink and paper"

Kasadya - "he who revealed to the children of the people (the various) flagellations of all evil - (the flagellation) of the souls and the demons, the smashing of the embryo in the womb so that it may be crushed, the flagellation of the soul, snake bites, sunstrokes, the son of the serpent, whose name is Taba'ta"

Names of other fallen angels - The Book of Enoch 69:2

Semyaz, Aristaqis, Armen, Kokba'el, Tur'el, Rumyal, Danyul, Neqa'el, Baraqel, Armaros, Betryal, Basas'el, Hanan'el, Sipwese'el, Yeter'el, Tuma'el, Rum'el, and Azaz'el

EDIT: There was far more than 12 fallen angels banished from Heaven. There was far more than 21 +7. The number is too great to list. No human will ever know just how many were lost during the fall, or all the reasons why. The important angels who were fallen are listed. Other important ones who fell aren't. It is how it goes. You will never know.

Now, for the rest of the inaccuracies. Some I have corrected above. The rest are being corrected below.

Lillith was NEVER an Angel. Lillith was always a dark creature. She WAS the first wife of Adam, she did create many monstrous creatures in her legacy upon this world. She was an evil being.

Fallen angels are NOT demons. They are simply fallen angels who were cast out.

Demons are beautiful. Demons are HIDEOUS. Make no mistake about it. They can be the most breathtaking creatures you have ever seen and in the next breath they can be the most horrifying. That is their nature.

The Angels who fell were not corrupted by demons. They fell because of their love for HUMANS.

First of all, only The Bible is the true basis of true faith and not any other books you wish to read, that is if you want truth and not myth.

So it all breaks down to this, NO Lilith or such name mentioned in the Bible so forget her.

Demons are not ugly creature, they are spirits and spirits are NOT physical beings and has No form. They are the fallen angels and their leader who mastermind the idea of overthrowing God is the one called Satan or Lucifer or the morning star in some Bible translations. He thinks he is like God because of his wisdom and beauty.

No specific number of demons/fallen angels was mentioned but was described as many.

(In reference to the previous) Lilith WAS in fact Adam's first wife originally in the Torah, but they removed it, as well as other things, for whatever the reason. The Old Testament of the Bible is based of said Torah, also removing bits and pieces in the process. It was also said in the Book of Enoch that 1/3 of the angels in heaven fell with Lucifer.

And, on a side note, the the parts of the Bible have been added removed and

changed since each part was written, due to religious differences.

You might want to make sure the names you look for and find are not of thoe from the Grigori that were sent to teach man certain things and slept with humans.

The idea of Lilith as a "prior first woman" before Eve arises much later. The only reference to Lilith in the Bible (Old or New Testaments) is Isaiah 34:14, probably written around 540 BC; it's a description of desolation, jackals and ravens among nettles and briers, etc.: "Goat demons shall greet each other; there too the lilith will repose." Most of the other creatures referenced in this poetry cannot be positively identified. The KJV, following the Vulgate, translates "the lilith" as "the night demon," confusing the lili- with the Hebrew word for night. But presumably Isaiah meant some sort of demon.

Is there a demon called Raaf?

No, this sounds like a bit of a mixup. RAAF is the Royal Australian Air Force. They had a series of biplanes named the Hawker Demon.

Who are the seven Catholic Archangels?

There are three explicitly named archangels according to the new testament. These are Gabriel, Michael and Raphael who identifies himself in Tobit 12:15 - For I am the Angel Raphael, one of seven, who stand before the Lord.” The book of enoch defines the others as Uriel, Raguel, Sariel and Jerahmeel. These are, therefore, often cited as the seven archangels according to Catholicism.

Are angels described in the Bible as having wings?

Generally speaking, the Bible describes angels as human-like in appearance and not having wings; in fact there are some passages where having wings would have been quite incongruous. On the other hand, there are two beings that are commonly included with angels and which are shown as having wings: cherubim and seraphim.

  • The best biblical description of cherubim (sing: cherub) is to be found in the story of the Ark of the Covenant, and it appears that they were sphinx-like creatures with human heads, the bodies of lions and two wings. Similar figures appear throughout the ancient Near East, including, of course, Egypt.
  • Seraphim (sing: seraph) are described in Isaiah 6:2 as part of God's retinue and it seems they were creatures of fire, with six wings.

Explain how Mephistopheles is similar to both the good and the evil angel?

Why does Judas have all those tattoos?

Because indians or africans (I forgot) used to chant around a fire and pierce and tattoo themselves to talk to spirits nobody knows why, but apparently it's the devil's work so that's why people think people with tats and piercings are going to go to hell.
