There are myriad concepts of angels. Which do you have in mind?
The dichotomy exists in mind and therefore affects our experience. But it is not otherwise substantive.

There are myriad concepts of angels. Which do you have in mind?So then the question creates a dichotomy that really does not exist? Perhaps the concept of angels needs revision?
By the way, I came across this quote last night and thought you'd appreciate it:
"The angels fly because they take themselves lightly." -- G. K. Chesterton
Okay this one has been nagging me for a while.... here is the question... If God is everywhere, and he is all powerful and all knowing, why would he need angels to record anything? In fact why would he need angels to protect us when he could do it himself... afterall he is everywhere right?
An explanation understood by some is; "God is Holy" When Adam sinned man was automatically out of God pressence because of unrighteousness.
Man needs a mediator between Himself and God or man would burn up by the brightness of God's glory.
One point at a time..........How could Adam be out of God's presence if God is everywhere?
let's revisit..... If God is everywhere, and knows everything, and is all powerful, why does he need angels?
why do you think He needs angels?
If we trust Him why would He need to tell us why He did what He did?Similarly, why would He need a "book of life?" So He doesn't forget? So we know why He did what He did?

If we trust Him why would He need to tell us why He did what He did?
I heard it on a YouTube clip about life not being as serious as we make it.By the way, I came across this quote last night and thought you'd appreciate it:

Lol, I wonder who posted that for you?I heard it on a YouTube clip about life not being as serious as we make it.
If I trust you there is no need for you to explain your actions unless I begin to lose trust in you. How would that apply to us and God? Why would we begin to lose faith in Him?Because trust is an onging expression built on faith. Faith and trust can be lost if not nurtured and strengthened. Misunderstanding or a lack of understanding can chip away at faith and trust.
