Bible Question: Did angels have a free will or were only humans were granted this freedom of choice? |
Bible Answer: As far as my understanding, angels were perfect creations...created as servants of God, messengers of God, in the image of God....We humans have to choose all that and believe that all that is true for us...My only problem is that Satan himself was an angel who fell from Grace which could indicate that he made a bad choice...but Satan desired to be bigger than God...so it wasn't so much that he turned away from God by choice rather God, in His anger, allows Satan opportunity to try and be bigger by winning us over. It is in that very battle that we are tested....choosing either God or Satan...our freewill! Did that make any sense? |
