Not sure why, but its not letting me quote you.........anyway...

No, its not quite over. Satan is still going to set up his kingdom on this earth, and will try to fool even the elect.

Satan has power and people do submit to satan without God's help, but this idea about satan doing something much greater in the future is derived from poor interpretations.

In a simple analogy:God is the operating system of the computer and angels are the programs or applications.
:thumbsup: Luke 21:36 (36) Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man."

Needing Angels and having Angels are two different things. I am perfectly capable of dicing onions by hand, but I use a ninja because it's faster or more convenient. I am capable of living on my own, but I plan to marry because I find it appealing.

Why? that's easy, cause God wants someone to love with his love.. God is love (agape) and God needs someone to love (agape) . That's why he created angels and that's why he created us. What good is it to have all that powerful agape love that God has if he has no one to shed it on?


And that's why he begat Jesus from the new human male seed that he, God, created.

had to throw that last part in.

If God has direct control of all things known and unknown, why then does he need angels to carry out his tasks?

Moses 1:39
39 For behold, this is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.

God doesn't need angels or men or any other part of His creation.

The four beasts are the foundations of this creation. If it werent for them, this whole thing could not exist. That is how he designed it, so yes he did need them.......Just like he needs the angels for an army. You are not understanding the context.

He could make an army from anything. They could have been meatballs if He wanted. A person who needs something cannot continue without it.
