In fact, it's the fallen angels that run around this sphere trying to interact with humans

Do you have a biblical source for that rather interesting belief? Or was that a personal revelation?

Ever hear of Satan and the angels that fell from heaven?

Well, it was a quote from Christ. How do you interpret it? I know not all protties interpret the same passages the same way....

I’m blessed to hear you have a hunger for God. We all should. But remember, too, that satan comes as an angel of light and his angels are always counterfeiting the things of God. What you see may not be what you think.

Read my typing . . .
SOME RC’s . . .

SOME folks considering becoming RC’s.

I don’t know individuals’ hearts or minds well enough to classify with any confidence.

Besides, that’s God’s turf.

WHAT passage in Luke. It has a LOT of verses.

Yes, sure. But where did you get the part about them, that run around this sphere trying to interact with humans? Is that from the scripture somewhere? Or your own private revelation from the HS?

I gave the passage to you in 2279. Here it is again:

Luke 20, 34-38. What’s the matter?

I wouldn’t want to be emphatic in assuming that every last Heavenly resting believers knows 100% absolutely nothing about anything down here, ever. God makes exceptions to even His rules somewhat often.

I do believe that generally, such things are screened out of their awareness affording them maximum joy, peace, rest, serenity at this time.

I never claimed to be an authority on the Scriptures. But I know that protties can read it for themselves, and interpret for themselves, so I’m just wondering where you got that fallen angels are running around trying to “get” humans.

If you don’t know, it’s okay to say so. Because I couldn’t find it.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh . . .

So this is a case of the RC edifice

yet again

fantasizing and building a skyscraper of dogma on, in this case, half a toothpick.

The Scripture does NOT say

as the ANGELS IN 100% OF ALL RESPECTS etc. etc.

My understanding is that the point was . . . believers in Heaven are not given in marriage and don’t exist as seriously wired seriously sexual beings engaging in all that in Heaven. THAT was the point, imho.

Tacking on all manner of outrageous, outlandish, preposterous assumptions beyond that is absolutely ludicrous, imho.

No offense to Quix, but he CAN be confusing at times.

As I mentioned before, I was just interpreting this on my own, prayerfully, and I didn’t see any qualifiers like what you said, just Christ’s plain words.

So, I guess I’ll have to disagree. But, thanks.

>>How on earth do bright fair-minded RC’s

objectively

tell the difference between

1. a true Heavenly visitation/manifestation

vs

2. a carefully crafted super far advanced technologically staged hoax foisted on the world by other dimensional critters or even ET’s?

Even Scripture warns about angels of light preaching any other ‘gospel.’<<

Hey! That’s the problem with interperting scripture by myself. I’ve read passages and prayed to the Holy Spirit to enlighten me, yet still got it wrong.

I’m not sure that the Holy Spirit even spoke to me. That it wasn’t the evil one as “Angel of Light”.

I’m not that good at picking it out. That’s where my Church comes in!

There's scripture that says that Satan walks around like a lion looking for those he can devour.

Christ told Peter that Satan expressed a desire to sift him like wheat.

Paul said we war against principalities and spiritual wickedness in high places.

Christ cast out Satan's demons, who even today can possess people

Christ said that they can be cast out, and if the person returns to his old life, they will come back worse than before

And I suppose there's more
