Favorite Archangel?
- Thread starter Father
- Start date
I find in Scripture Archangel is singular. That would mean there is only one biblical Archangel: named Michael.
That would be the Lord Jesus' heavenly name and position as found at 1 Thessalonians 4:16; Jude 1:9.
Right now I see at 2 Corinthians 4:4 that Lucifer (aka Satan) is the god of this world of badness.....
I suppose you would Not like the words found at Hebrews 2:14 B that Jesus will destroy Lucifer (aka Devil).

to me, its all fictional I look at the bible and things around it as nothing more than entertainment. also, thank the Catholics for the orderly establishment of archangels and LuciferWhen did Deism add angels or Lucifer?

8 or so of the main cast I think. Archangel is merely a title and not a race. *stated by some lore* as Lucifer was a Seraph or a Cherub but most say Seraph. along with Michael. but normal Angels which can sometimes be Humans raised up from Saints can become Archangels too.
though the old testament only ever mentions Gabriel and Michael, the only verse mentioning Lucifer applies to a Babylonian King and not an angel. which is why while Jews have an archangel named Samael who is good and bad there is no Lucifer. any Archangels besides Michael and Gabriel and any Lucifer are constructions of the Catholic church. whether it be by their monks and popularized by a pope or two. so it's all extended Universe. which is why so many different shows and such depict heaven differently.
my favorite depictions having to be the comic series Lucifer and the Manga series Makai Ouji

Nothing my eye, Something for sure
then the name Satan in the New Testament, would that be a newly created foe?
a lot of Christians attribute to Lucifer, and the serpent in the Garden, and Leviathan,and the anointed cherub in ezekiel, all to be one enemy Satan.
and of course the Antichrist is figured to be Satan as well.
I've never seen a more changed story than the Bible, I'm sure the writers of the NT wove them altogether as one enemy, or a lot of believers interpret all this by their own rationale.

Satan I find is Not his personal name but a title.
I wonder why capitalize the letter "A" in antichrist when in Scripture there is No upper-case letter "A" in antichrist.
I find always in the lower case "a" as found at 1 John 2:18; 1 John 2:22; 1 John 4:3; 2 John 1:7

and since you can't beat them with Logic or Evidence. I take joy in tearing their ideals apart with their own book ^-^
