[QUOTE="Sabertooth, post: 76938120, member: 118925"] [URL='https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Daniel%2010&version=NKJV']Read Daniel 10[/URL] In vv.12-14, the archangel told Daniel, “Do not fear, Daniel, for [B]from the first day[/B] that you set your heart to understand, [INDENT]and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard;[/INDENT] and I have come because of your words. But the prince of the kingdom of Persia [B]withstood me twenty-one days[/B]; [INDENT]and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.[/INDENT] Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, [INDENT]for the vision [I]refers[/I] to [I]many[/I] days yet [I]to come.[/I]..”[/INDENT] It took the archangel 21 days to arrive at his destination because he was waylaid by a "prince/king" of Persia (another spiritual being) and it took a while for backup (Michael) to arrive. All three were affected by time while in our realm. We do not know how that works for angels once they exit the natural universe. We find no such limitation for God except those that are Self-imposed, like the Incarnation. [/QUOTE]
