About this sermon

4/09/2025 There are a lot of misconceptions on the subject of angels. Many picture them as little chubby cherubs playing their harps in the clouds, but that could not be further from the truth. The Bible has a lot to say about this supporting cast of characters and their role in human affairs. In today’s study, Pastor Austin addresses questions such as, “What are angels?” “What do angels look like?” “What do they do?” “Do they have bodies?” “Are there different kinds and ranks of angels?” and many more. 00:00 - Introduction 00:18 - Messengers Among Us 00:44 - Why Is It Important To Study And Learn More About Angels? 00:57 - 1) Angels Remind Us The Unseen World Is Real. 05:24 - 2) There Are A Lot Of Misconceptions When It Comes To The Topic Of Angels. 08:10 - 3) Angels Are Involved In The Activity And Affairs Of Men (Heb. 13:2). 13:05 - 4) Angels Played An Important Role In The Ministry Of Jesus (Matt 4:11; 28:1-8; Luke 22:43). 20:37 - Who Or What Are Angels? 21:04 - Psalm 148:2-6 & Colossians 1:16 23:55 - Hebrews 1:7-14 24:36 - Etymology Of The Word Angel. 28:08 - What Do Angels Look Like? 28:40 - 1) They Are Invisible Spirits Who Do Not Marry (2 Kings 6; Heb. 1:7; Luke 24:39; Matt. 22:30). 31:51 - 2) Their Spirit-Form Does Not Necessarily Mean They Have No Body, Simply Their "Body" Is Different Than A Human Body Of Flesh And Bones (see 1 Cor. 15). 33:51 - 3) They Can Assume A Human Body And Are Able To Eat (Gen. 18:8; Acts 1:9; Heb. 13:2). 35:08 - 4) They Sometimes Are Described As Having A Brilliant, Awesome Appearance (Matt. 28:3). 35:44 - 5) They Always Appear In The Bible As Men. 35:54 - 6) They Are Not Subject To Physical Laws Of Nature; They Can Fly But Are Not Described As Having Wings (Acts 12:7; Dan 9:21; Rev. 14:6). 37:09 - Are There Different Kinds Or Ranks Of Angels? 37:52 - What Are The Cherubim? 39:14 - What Are The Seraphim? 40:20 - The Rank Or Order Of The Angels. 40:50 - How Many Angels Are There? 41:58 - What Can We Learn From Angels? 42:37 - 1) God Loves And Cares For His People. 44:45 - 2) Angels Serve As An Example Of Worship. 46:47 - 3) Angels Serve As An Example Of Obedience. 47:38 - 4) Angels Serve As A Reminder Of Jesus' Soon Return.
