You're No Angel!

by Tonja Taylor
12/07/2022 / Christian Living

And because you [really] are [His] sons, God has sent the [Holy] Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, Abba (Father)! Father!--Galatians 4:6, AMPC

Some say that, when people die, they become an angel.

Wrong! (Thank goodness! Once we receive Christ Jesus as our Savior and LORD, we become the children of God. Who'd want to be an angel?)

WE DON'T BECOME ANGELS WHEN WE DIE!

For to which of the angels did [God] ever say, You are My Son, today I have begotten You [established You in an official Sonship relation, with kingly dignity]? And again, I will be to Him a Father, and He will be to Me a Son?---Hebrews 1:15, AMPC

When we do good deeds, people often call us an angel. When we do bad, they may say, "You're no angel!" But, who'd really want to be an angel--when we can be a child of the living God?

Everyone who believes (adheres to, trusts, and relies on the fact) that Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah) is a born-again child of God; and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of Him (His offspring).--I John 5:1, AMPC

So, once we have repented of our sin--acknowledged that we are sinners, and that we need Jesus' blood (shed on the cross of Calvary over 2,000 years ago!) to cleanse our hearts, our lives, from that sin, and make us holy and acceptable to the LORD God, Who is holy; for LORD Jesus to come into our hearts and be our Savior and LORD and best Friend--we are translated from darkness into the eternal Kingdom of Light!

8 But God shows and clearly proves His [own] love for us by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) died for us. 9 Therefore, since we are now justified (acquitted, made righteous, and brought into right relationship with God) by Christ’s blood, how much more [certain is it that] we shall be saved by Him from the indignation and wrath of God. 10 For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, it is much more [certain], now that we are reconciled, that we shall be saved (daily delivered from sin’s dominion) through His [resurrection] life.11 Not only so, but we also rejoice and exultingly glory in God [in His love and perfection] through our Lord Jesus Christ, through Whom we have now received and enjoy [our] reconciliation.--Romans 5:8-11, AMPC

GOD ADOPTS US AS HIS CHILDREN IN HIS ROYAL FAMILY THROUGH HIS SON, JESUS CHRIST!

God--Yahweh, Jehovah, Elohim Who created and sustains the universe and all the good in it every moment--becomes our Abba Father, our Daddy God, from the moment we receive Christ Jesus, His Son, as our Savior and LORD!

For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father!--Romans 8:15, AMPC

The holy angels are much more powerful and wise and knowledgeable than us, in ourselves. They were created to worship and serve God, and to help us, the heirs of Salvation; to help us, God's kids! Hallelujah!

No angel--not even of the highest order, like Gabriel or Michael--could ever call God, "Abba, Father" (Daddy God) like we can!

13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? 14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?--Hebrews 13:13-14, AMPC

By ourselves, we are really nothing. By ourselves, we are certainly very weak in body, mind, and spirit, compared to an angel of God, which moves at the speed of thought! (They have to slow down to be seen!)

WE BECOME ONE WITH CHRIST JESUS, OUR ROYAL BROTHER!

But, once we receive LORD Jesus as our Savior and LORD, then we're not by ourselves; we become one with Christ Jesus--forever! Hallelujah!

Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness—trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never].--Psalm 91:14, AMPC

He is with us always, and He will never leave us! Hallelujah!

Let your character or moral disposition be free from love of money [including greed, avarice, lust, and craving for earthly possessions] and be satisfied with your present [circumstances and with what you have]; for He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down (relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not!]--Hebrews 13:5, AMPC

IT'S EASY TO BECOME PART OF GOD'S ROYAL FAMILY THROUGH JESUS!

If you want to become a child of the Living God, the eternal King of kings and LORD of lords--Who loves you so much He gave His only Son to die the most horrible death for you, to pay the sin debt you could never pay (as He did for me and for all people who ever have or will be born, for He is outside of time!), then just say this short sincere prayer out loud: LORD Jesus, I need You to please forgive me and cleanse me of my sin, and come into my heart and be my Savior and LORD, and best Friend forever! I receive You. Thank You for dying for me, and rising again to help me live a wonderful life. Please teach me how to follow You. I ask You to take my life and do something with it. I give myself to You. Thank You, dear Jesus!

And because you [really] are [His] sons, God has sent the [Holy] Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, Abba (Father)! Father!--Galatians 4:6, AMPC

It's really that simple! The LORD is Love (I John 4:8); He is so good--He is Goodness, and His desire is that all people would be saved from a horrible hell, and for Heaven, to be with Him in eternal peace and joy forever!

O taste and see that the Lord [our God] is good! Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man who trusts and takes refuge in Him.--Psalm 34:8, AMPC

YOU CAN HAVE ETERNAL SECURITY AND LIVE IN HEAVEN FOREVER!

Go for it! Receiving Christ--the only true Way to Heaven--is the best decision you'll ever make!
