Over the years, there have been many secular books on the subject of angels... But these books do not often take into account the Bible's vies. Since angels are a biblical phenomenon, it would make sense to go there first to find out what is really true about them. There is a wealth of information in the Bible concerning these spiritual beings. Angels are mentioned 108 times in the Old Testament and 165 times in the New Testament. They are recorded performing various tasks and ministries, and some are even described in detail, details that are far removed from paintings of plump, smiling cherubs. Not surprisingly, the world has some misconceptions concerning angels. This study guide reveals ungrounded notions and replaces them with truth from the biblical record. Truth, as you may know, is stranger than fiction So be prepared to find out some truly amazing things about these heavenly beings--these magnificent creatures the bible calls angels. DR.
