Because of the Angels
Gregor:
Greetings,
I think I've found my answer, at least in part:
Gal.1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Gal.4:14 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
I guess "angel" is refering to anyone who would preach/teach false doctrine and deceive those who would be gulible and without proper spiritual covering. If everything in the bible, as taught by Ray, is one big parable, then I suppose women would be a type, same as Eve, as touched upon in the thread "Types." So this leads me to my next question, what is the appropriate "covering," spiritually speaking?? Any takers?

I suppose that would be Jesus.Righteousness has the meaning to be clothed properly and he is our righteousness,our clothing our covering.
rocky:
does this verse help?
Rev 21:17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
Deborah-Leigh:
Matt 22 : 11 But when the king came in to view the guests, he looked intently at a man there who had on NO WEDDING GARMENT. 12 He said, "Friend, how did YOU COME IN HERE without putting on the wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13. Then the king said to the attendants, "Tie him hand and foot, and throw him into the darkness outside; there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.

Rom 1:18 “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of MEN…”
That word men means humans, human kind or mankind, you could almost put the human race...unquote...
For me the Angels do not rejoice in ungodliness. They rejoice in the salvation of all and to that end the angels long to look....1 Peter 1:12 ...It is these very things which have NOW already been made known plainly to you by those who preached the good news to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Into THESE things the very angels LONG TO LOOK!
Jesus did not come to set any Angels free but He came for the sons of men to liberate humanity. He will succeed and into this the angels long to look as I see it. For it is written that Rev 12 : 12 And they overcame him (the devil) by the blood of the Lamb, (the covering...the wedding garment....?) and the word of their testimony: and they loved not their lives unto the death. 12 Therefore...THEREFORE, rejoice, you heavens and YOU that dwell in them....(Who dwells in the heavens. Who has come from the heavens but Christ. Who are Christs heavenly host? Angels? I believe so. Spirit beings? I think so. Do not the Angels rejoice when he who is lost is found? I believe so. )
Just what I see. This shows the difference in our being for He was made little LOWER than the Angels. Angels are not human and are an entirely different creation of our Father's Son.
Angel also means messenger and we know there is the false messenger or prophet and the true one from Christ.
The Angels of our Lord do not rejoice in iniquity but in the Truth.
Rev 16 : 15 Behold I am going to come like a thief! Blessed is he who stays awake and who guards his clothes, so that he may not be naked and they see his shame.
Here in the above verse I believe those who will see the shame mentioned of, are the spirits of devils and false messengers.
As messengers, if the Angel of the Lord sees our nakedness they will grieve and Angels of the Devil will gloat so either way, keep the covering of Christ, His blood and His Sacrifice and His Faith in the forfront of our thoughts, trust and hearts garrisoned by His Peace.
That is how I understand for the Angels sakes for God wills that non should perish and His Messengers rejoice at His Works.
Peace to you Gregor
