1 | were angels saved by works? | 2 Pet 2:4 | John Reformed | 97374 | ||
Dear Makarios, You stated "God 'elected' or permanently confirmed the holiness of the angels who chose to remain loyal to Him". You offered 1 Timothy 5:21 as your proof text. 1 Tim 5:21 I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of His chosen angels, to maintain these principles without bias, doing nothing in a spirit of partiality. This verse says, "His chosen angels", but it does not specify the reason God chose them. Perhaps you could explain how you reached the conclusion that God chose them on the basis of works (their loyalty to God) and not His grace alone. Thanks, John Reformed |

Hi everyone,Ive read the string on this question and can I offer a simple answer. Angels have no reason to be saved, they were created beings, in spirit, may I add, and the angels that stayed with God were allowed to remane because of one reason only, They Didnt sin.2 Peter 2:4 proves that.God did not create evil, satan did and he was acreated spirit. The angels had knowledge of good and evil, per the tree in the garden of eden, did you ever wonder why God created this tree it wasnt for man to begin with,in my opinion, it was created after the fall of the angels.DL5 | ||||||

Hi Makarios, we all are still learning and the best place we can learn is from Gods word, He tells us that we should seek out others of like faith, compareing scripture with scripture. By the way I took my pills before I loged in to the forum, I figured I might need them.Ha,Ha. DL5 | ||||||
