1 | Were Angels created Holy? | Bible general Archive 2 | dweaver | 104670 | ||
Does the Bible mention anything about the Angels being created holy or good? I reference Genesis 1:31 where Moses writes, "Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good... Someone has noted that this verse applies to the creation of Angels as well. Can someone help me. Thanks |

dweaver ... let's get real guys...momma ... richard... Genesis ch 1 v.31 "and he saw that it was GOOD " this is repeted ch.1 v.10 - 12 - 18 - 21 - 25 - 31 all the same ... it was GOOD. now ...a cheseburger is good ..but it ain't Holy v. 1 - 31 includes the work of God's hands for every day except the sabath (day 7) this means it includes everything from then until we enter into the rest of God in His Holy Heavenly bliss. so yes it includes angels but it doesn't instate a discriptive of Holy about any thing here. If you could posibly squeeze Holy out of good, then God says he is Holy. v.31 ---he saw his accomplishment and it was good. In these verses it says nothing about creating angels. Not until 6:4 " the Nephilim were on thr earth in those days -- and also afterward---when the Sons of God went to the daughters of men and had childern by them." cool-huh hybrid angels ? |

Greetings joel k. A cheeseburger may "look good" but it can house all sorts of nasty bacteria than can kill the consumer. Would God create such a thing and call it "good?" If we decide that God did not create the angels to be "good" then we must ponder the "creation" of evil. I might suggest that angels were created as holy beings, and as such, they were beyond redemption when they chose to leave "their first estate." We know little about the angelic order, but does it make sense that God would have created them without His essence of holiness? However, since NONE are God and no angelic being posesses HIS exact nature,(He can not deny Himself - 2 Tim 2:13) we might be persuaded to conclude that the possibility to reject that essence exisits. However, unlike mankind, the angelic "fall" could not be redeemed. Frankly, it is far better to be concerned about man's holiness than that of the angelic order. God says, "You shall be holy, for I am holy." 1 Peter 1:16. Can we be holy on our own or does God "make us" this way? I see this as imputed righteousness, a restoration of our right standing before God, that Adam was created with but had lost because of his sin - rebellion against God's law. (Herein may lie a hint of why the angelic order was beyond redemption. But I choose not to even speculate upon this.) mommapbs PS: Jesus said, "No one is good except God alone." Luke 18:19 vs "And God saw that it (His creation) WAS good" (note the past tense) |
