The OP's are just as bad with the magic hair thing as the other folks are with the angel thing
but, stop and think,
angels appeared to or ministered to Zecharias ( Luke 1:11), Mary ( Luke 1:26), Joseph ( Matthew 1:20), shepherds ( Luke 2:9-13), Joseph again ( Matthew 2:13), Jesus ( Matthew 4:11), Jesus again ( Luke 22:43)women at the empty tomb ( Matthew 28:2; Luke 24:1-9; John 20:12), disciples on ascension day ( Acts 1:10-11), Philip ( Acts 8:26), Peter ( Acts 12:7-8), Paul ( Acts 27:23-24), John ( Rev 22:8). Evidently there was a lot of angelic activity in those early years. The writer of the Book of Hebrews speaks about angels being ministering spirits to those who are heirs of salvation ( Hebrews 1:14) and hints that we all might have angelic encounters ( Heb 12:2). So maybe seeing and interacting with angels should be expected to be more common in our day than we some times think. |
But their (the bible) encounters were never wacked out like those in Lee Grady's articles.
I was just in a meeting where the lead speaker talked about an angel dressed in pink that sits at the bed of this child in church--and the angel speaks to the little girl.Everyone just seemed so fine with it, and then he said how his grand daughter has an angel and then he called the angel by name.
That is just too wacky for me-
