Author Sees Angels, and Her Book's a Bestseller
Fox News ^ | June 25, 2010 | Lauren Green

They are messengers from God, heavenly beings without material bodies, spiritual envoys carrying out God's will.

They are angels. And according to Lorna Byrne, everyone has one -- a guardian angel who’s always with you and will never leave you. She says they are “the gatekeepers of your soul.”

She knows this, she says, because all her life she's been surrounded by them and has talked to them. Her book, Angels in My Hair, recounts her lifelong experiences with angels directing her and teaching her.

Byrne's story begins with the telling of her toddler years, when the angels told her that her tiny playmate was the brother who had died before she was born.

"We actually touched while playing blocks," says the Irish-born Byrne, who is a practicing Catholic. "When I touched his, arm it sparkled, my hands went through his into mine. I was two and a half."

Whether the public believes Byrne's angel accounts is up to them. But the popularity of her book illustrates the fascination people have with these mystical beings. Her tome is an international bestseller, translated into 20 languages. Doubleday reportedly paid a six-figure advance for the U.S. publishing rights.

Does she hear and see them when she’s off her meds?

“The Koran also talks of angels, the most important being the Angel Gabriel, who Muslims believe was God’s messenger who appeared to the Prophet Muhammad and dictated their holy book.”

That wasn’t Gabriel. It was a demon pretending to be Gabriel.

This woman may indeed talk to her angels, but I’m not sure that’s a good thing.

Isn’t this basically occultism?

Yes, those aren’t “angels” that she’s talking to...
at least not now they aren’t.
They might have been at one time.

Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and
the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize.
Such a person goes into great detail about what he has seen,
and his unspiritual mind puffs him up with idle notions.
(Col 2:18)

Perhaps, but Islam is a demonic faith, so I can see why the army of darkness would want them around.

Maybe they’re trying to tell her to do something about those tangles.

There are times when we could all use a little help.

My son said he saw “his angel” before he almost fell into a huge snowbank. This happened when he was five years old. The angel was a male, sitting on our roof watching Mike as he played in over four feet of snow. I still get goosebumps when I think about it.

You’re right.

Muhammad was aided by the works of Bahira - a Nestorian Christian monk, the Meccan Jews and the Quraishi tribals - to cook up the Quran.

The three sources explain the Quran’s similarities with the Bible and Torah, as well as the practices of the Quraish.

If so, then the Bible was written by occultists. Everyone and his brother talked to angels in the Old Testament. And I guess Mary Magdalene was also into the occult, since she spoke to an angel at Jesus' tomb.

“If so, then the Bible was written by occultists.”

Did you ever read in the Bible that the devil can appear as an “angel of light”?

My wife (and others) saw them and felt them watching over my daughter in the burn ward.
