BILLIONS AND
BILLIONS OF ANGELS
Getting to know Jehovah
God includes becoming better acquainted with his angelic family. The Bible
calls the angels "sons of God." (Job 38:7) So, what is their place in
God's purpose? Have they played a role in human history? [The angels will play
a terrific role in human history - they will wipe out the aliens mercilessly. -
G, J] Do angels affect your life? [Of course, definitely. - G, J]
The Bible refers to
angels hundreds of times. Where did angels come from? Colossians 1:16 says:
"By means of him [by God, I think, not by Jesus, who was only one of the
numerous creations of God - G, J] all other things were created in the heavens
and on the earth." Hence all the spirit creatures called angels were
individually created by Jehovah God. How many angels are there? The Bible
indicates that hundreds of millions of angels were created, and all of them are
powerful. - Psalm 103:20.
Regarding righteous
angels, Revelation 5:11 says: "The number of them was myriads of
myriads," or "tens of thousands times tens of thousands." So the
Bible does indicate that hundreds of millions of [very powerful] angels were
created [by God].
