Hello shalom: 2 PETER 2: >>>Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord. ( says greater in power and might,,,not spirit......) (food for thought ) 12 But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; (speaking of the sodomites) 13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; 14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: 15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet. 17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. I guess my point is that we are less in power and might because of our physical limitations just as Christ was limited in the body , having to observe physical laws of the universe, except when He so chose to neglect them such as when He walked on water or turned water into wine Ect. But that is not to say that we are less in the spirit realm than angels.... I point to the account of the angels that dutifully report the sins of the sodomites without embellishment and the affairs of evil men to God. Neither do they rashly accuse nor condemn but merely report without bitterness or railing. I know that I would not be able to do this but would somehow find myself explaining to God about the evil and unholiness that I observe even if it were my own sins. So would this make me above or below the angels in my spirit ? I'm just stating food for thought...the accounts of the angels do not especially show them as being more brilliant than mankind , only more powerful..more food for thought.!!!!!!!!!!
