1 | Dr. B. What does aggelos mean? | Eph 4:9 | drbloor | 171632 | ||
Dear Searcher, I have proved from Peter that the aggelos in Peter were people who sinned at the time of the flood and were killed. I went on to prove from Genesis that these people were men. Case proved. Dr. B. |

2 | Dr. B. What does aggelos mean? | Eph 4:9 | Searcher56 | 171639 | ||
Scripture ... 2 Peter 2:4 "For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment" ... You are sooooo funny, Dr. B. ... you changed the words. Your case has not been proven. 2 Peter 2:4 doesn't say "killed" ... but "cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment". If these were those in Genesis 6:2, why did God pick on this group? What happened to others, … and did not spare the ancient world (2 Pet 2:5) … and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes (2 Pet 2:6) Plus, if those in Genesis 6:2, how did they have relations? Also, read Jude 1:6 about the angels and judgment. Now the case is closed Searcher |

Dear Searcher, I can only assume you have not read a word I have written. I have not changed any words - I directed you to the original Greek word "Tartarus" to explain what was being referred to by "hell". I directed you to the examples in the Psalms to explain what the "chains of darkness" are. And I proved from Peter that the people of Sodom and Gomorrah are "reserved for judgment" in precisely the same way as these aggelos are. The similarity in their state is obvious because they are all dead humans. Please do not accuse me of changing words when I have not done that. In answer to what happened to the others, have you read 2 Peter 2 or Genesis 6? The aggelos of Peter were not spared and neither was "the old world". Everyone died apart from Noah and his family. Jude 1:6 and 7 are direct references to Peters letter, so there is no reason to cover the same issue twice. I don't understand this sentence - "Plus, if those in Genesis 6:2, how did they have relations?" You are very good at asking questions but not very good at answering them. So here's a few to start with (some of which you have already blatantly ignored): Please explain how angels can sin, when Christ told us that they can't. Please explain how the 50 men looking for Elijah thought they'd find him when Elisha had already told them that Elijah was in Heaven and, according to you, they had most probably watched Elijah go there. Please explain why you have invented a belief that they were after Elijahs spirit, when 2 Kings 2 actually tells us that they "afar off" and on the other side of the river Jordan during the conversation about double portions of spirit, and also tells us the exact reason they went to look for Elijah – that they were concerned about Elijahs safety and went to make sure he was okay? They urged Elisha until he was "shamed", not until he got angry with them for wanting Elijahs spirit! It is clear they cared about Elijah. Your claim they wanted double portions of Elijahs spirit is invented un-Biblical nonsense. In your own words, "Where is your Biblical support?" Please prove that the heaven we are referred to in 2 Kings 2 is the Heaven where God abides and not the heaven of the sky. Please prove your convolution that Elijahs letter was a prophecy and not simply a letter written at the time. Please explain why when Jesus said, "No man hath ascended up to heaven," he was actually lying. I look forward to your answers. In future, please read what I have written before you write your answers. It will help prevent you from making false accusations. Yrs, Dr. B. |

4 | Dr. B. Biblical support Angels can't sin | Eph 4:9 | Searcher56 | 171647 | ||
Dr. B. You say "Please explain how angels can sin, when Christ told us that they can't." Where does Christ say angels can't sin? | ||||||
5 | Dr. B. Biblical support Angels can't sin | Eph 4:9 | drbloor | 171652 | ||
Dear Searcher, If you were reading my answers to you, you would have already read this: ---------------------------------- "This also comes back to a point I have made before on the angels: Luke 20:36 "Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels." Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death" I hope you see the point. If the wages of sin is death, and angels cannot die, then neither can they sin, or they would die, which they cannot do. At least, not according to Jesus. ---------------------------------- Yrs, Dr. B. |

6 | Dr. B. Biblical support Angels can't sin | Eph 4:9 | Searcher56 | 171673 | ||
Scripture ... Luke 20:34 The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage, Luke 20:35 but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; Luke 20:36 for they cannot even die anymore, because they are like angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection. Luke 20:37 "But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the burn-ing bush, where he calls the Lord THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, AND THE GOD OF ISAAC, AND THE GOD OF JACOB. Luke 20:38 "Now He is not the God of the dead but of the living; for all live to Him." ... Dr. B. The passage starts in Luke 20:28 when Jesus was asked whose wife that was married to seven brothers was. Jesus responded we will be equal to angels in that we will not be married, procre-ate or die. The reason we will not die ANYMORE (we died once) is because we “are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.” … Now are the angels ever called either of these? You use eisegesis by forcing the Bible to say what you want it to say. |
