Do demons have any power at all? How did Pharoah's magicians make those rods turn to snakes? Did God do it?

Also, do you realize that he bible in fact uses the hebrew word for gods to describe angels?

All angels are called men look them up. They are NOT men but called men. Look it up Gen. 18, 19 the accounts in the Gospels of the resurrection. Two MEN in white apparel. And the list goes on and on.

All that tells me is what I already said, some angels have and can take on a human form. Which too, if that is the case, then it was quite possible to have relations with women.

But I have yet to see any verse that shows ALL angels are called men...it's your assertion so why should I have to "look it up"?

Why?

Because all these things are sin. There is no big sins and little sins. Just sin.

WH, I find Bro. Epley much more agreeable to speak to on topics like these. I don't believe he puts me in hell (or even thinks I belong there) just because I wear a wedding ring.

I was still in the UPC when I started to wear it.

They did NOT take on human form they were angels. And angels appear to look like men. ALL angels are spoken of as being men go on and admit it. I challenge you to find a passage where an angel appears that is NOT called a He or Him or a man.

Of all the gold and silver belongs to God that is a mute statement the problem is does God want us to wear it.

All the cocaine and heroin comes from plants that belongs to God and also tobacco but does God want us to use it?

Why don't you just come right out and say that you don't like me?
