One question with a Biblical answer, are we fallen angels? What if… Nothing in this world is truly what it seems? What if… The words of Jesus Christ were true? He told us that His mission was to free the captives, restore sight to the blind, to open the doors to the prison, and to wake us up from the dead. What if, we were all captives? What if, we were all blind? What if, we were all in prison? What if, we were all born dead? What if, all of these things were true? If Jesus told us these things, are they not true? Did the Lord ever tell a lie? Did He tells us that we are all of our father the devil? How could these things be true? How could we not see? How could we all not understand?

What if the parable of the prodigal son wasn’t a parable at all, but Jesus was telling us exactly who we are? What if we are fallen angels? There are many confusing questions that we have when reading the Bible, yet we make an attempt to reason things out within our minds in order to make sense of it all. The Messiah told us that we need to become as little children. As we begin, that is what I am asking you all to do. Take the eraser to the chalk board of your lives, wipe the slate clean, and forget everything that you have ever thought to be true. Maybe, just maybe, you will wake up from the dead. Maybe, just maybe, you will no longer be blind. Maybe, just maybe, you will be set free. In many previous posts, we have looked at the KJV Bible using the Strong’s concordance, in order to further understand the Word of God. Today. we will take a walk on the surface and see that we don’t always need to do so.

We will begin to build off of what Jesus said, and found our temples from there. We will lay brick by brick, pour the mortar, level the surface, and continue to build. Let us start, with the prodigal son. The story of the prodigal son tells us about a young boy, who wanted to leave his Father and go and do his own thing. He told his Father, give me what is mine, I am going to make a name for myself. Although, this son, even though he may have had the best intentions, we see that the outcome faired not well for him. When he got there, he wasted all that he had on riotous living.

Jesus tells us in John 10:34, “Is it not written in your law, I said ye are gods?” He was quoting Psalm 82. Let’s now look at it, together. “They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.” So, are we fallen angels? We will take what Jesus is telling us and liken it to the parable of the Prodigal son. Remember, Jesus said that we are all blind, asleep, and that we need to arise from the dead. So, what is it that they won’t understand? Who are they?

What if, the prodigal son’s, were a third of the host of Heaven, who left their father and chose Lucifer as their father? “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do… and because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.” What if, we just don’t remember it? What if, we all woke up in this world asleep, and truly dead, just as the Messiah told us? What if, our inheritance was our eternal life? What if, the far away land that the prodigal son went to, was the earth?

“And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities… But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.”

Once again, we see that these angels, are filthy dreamers that defile the flesh, They know not, and apparently they don’t understand either.” “Arise O’ sleeper, wake up from the dead, and Christ shall give thee life.” “For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.” “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” Are you beginning to “see?” Are we fallen angels?

Is there even more in the Bible that speaks on this, or proves this even more so? Yes. And the evidence is overwhelming. Let’s see what Peter says on the matter. “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.” Here again, they don’t know, and they don’t understand what they are being told. Let us now watch this video below.

“When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end. Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction. How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors. As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when you awake, you shalt despise your image. Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins. So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.” – Psalm 73.

So here we all are. Yet, there is even more. “When we were all fallen to the earth.” “God comforteth those that are cast down. “When men are cast down, then there shall be a lifting up, and he shall save the humble person.” OK. So we are fallen angels? We are all the prodigal son’s. We all took our eternal life, came to the earth, and wasted our eternal life on riotous living. The Bible calls us strangers and pilgrims. We are also called aliens and sojourners. All of these imply that we are not from here. We are all residing in a foreign country.

“These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.”

OK. If the truth isn’t frightening enough, and learning who we all are and where we all come from isn’t enough, we also have even more understanding to gain. “ He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.” -Isaiah 53. Here again, we all have gone astray. And that isn’t even the worst part.

Remember, we are angels, prodigal son’s, strangers and pilgrims, aliens and sojourners. We aren’t from here. We don’t belong here. And, once again, at one time, we all were son’s. “The sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.” Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 are two entirely separate accounts of creation. Genesis 1 is the God of this world who hath blinded the eyes of them who believe not. Genesis 2 is the Lord God, who formed Adam from the dust of the ground and took Eve out of his side. Interesting that Jesus was pierced in His side while on the cross.

Before we get into that, the foundation is still being laid. After the first set of bricks have been leveled, we begin squaring off the corners for the second layer. In Genesis 1 we are told about the creation of man, and the image of God. For this understanding, we need to go into the original language so that we can see who God truly is and what the image of God means. “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” Let’s use the Strong’s Concordance and e-Sword to deepen our understanding. See who God is in Genesis 1 and pay attention to the word image in the original language.

Who is God in Genesis 1? Is the word LORD in front of God? What is the definition for image? The Bible says that God means, gods in the ordinary sense, of the Supreme God, and angels. The word image means, a shade, a phantom, an illusion, especially an idol. So man by definition alone is an idol. It says so in the Bible. “Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction. How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors. As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when you awake, you shalt despise your image. Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins. So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.” Second layer, now complete. Let us continue.

In Exodus 20, we are given a specific set of commandments from the Lord God. Let us ponder these verses. “I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me.” OK. Was Jesus’ mission to free the captives? “I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.” You may ask yourself, how can I liken Egypt to the earth? “And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.” – Revelation 11:8. The whole world spiritually is Egypt and Sodom. If what I am saying is true, and we made ourselves as angels, into the form of a man, bowing ourselves down to our image to serve them, would Exodus 20 tell us this? Why don’t we look deeper at Exodus 20:4. See the words walked all the way back to the roots.

The Lord God told us not to make any idols or any phantom or specifically embodiment species. I am aware of no man since the beginning of time that has had the capability to do this. Are you aware of anyone? No. Why? we all already did. “How art thou fallen (already happened) from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars (princes) of God (EL): I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:  I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” – Isaiah 14:12-14.

Lucifer creates the world, and what we will call our human host body to trap all of the angels. The confirmation is in Ezekiel 28, “Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the Sardis, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so.” Yep, he covered all of the angels, hid our true identity, gave us flesh to dwell in, and made us all idols. We now can be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth. Not as much fun as you thought it would all be, is it? Look at the mess that we all got ourselves into. “Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.”

Now, we know a good portion of who we all are and what we all did. Let’s get back to Isaiah 53 and go even deeper. “Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.” What does it mean to esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted? Let’s look, together.

As we have learned, we are all angels, we are all the prodigal son’s. At one time, we were all male energy. By coming here and choosing another as our father, we plaited or interpenetrated, and weaved ourselves into something else; by choosing to lie with a woman, by choosing the forbidden fruit. “Neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.” He was smitten, murdered, slayed, and slaughtered by the angels. We took our inheritance, came to the earth, and wasted it on riotous living.

“He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.” As we consider this, we will now look at the meaning of the word transgressions. We will walk it all the way back to the roots and gain the full understanding of the meaning behind this word.

We all rebelled and revolted, by breaking away from just Authority, the Lord God. That is, to trespass and to apostatize, by spreading the legs. I am not sure if it could be clearer or more obvious than that.

“When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end. Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction. How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors. As a dream when I awake O Lord, when I awake out of my sleep, I surely will despise my image. Thus, my heart is grieved, and I am pricked in my reins. So foolish am I, and ignorant: I am as a beast before thee. FORGIVE ME FATHER.” “Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.”

In a general sense, that is only the beginning of the foundation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. “The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner.” We come to the understanding of who we all are and what we all did. We wake up out of our deep sleep, say oh my gosh! It is true. It is all true. We turn back to the Father, ask Him for forgiveness, and then… begin our journey back to Him. Jesus tells us, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” Now, you have the truth. Let’s learn the way. And it begins with repentance. Turning back to the beginning. The very beginning. The First Estate, when we were all angels. The answers to everything are in the very words of Jesus Christ. As we consider once again the prodigal son, we will also tie some additional words of the Messiah together for deeper meaning. We are now in the process of building your temple. A place for the Lord God to occupy.

“And when he came to himself (arise o’ sleeper), he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.  And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.”

The prodigal son, or more specifically you and me; we came to ourselves, woke up from our deep sleep, realized that we are blind, deaf, dumb, captives, and prisoners, asked the Father for forgiveness and we went towards the Father, leaving it all behind. So, are we fallen angels? By now, I hope it is pretty obvious to you that we are. “He that forsaketh not all that he hath, cannot be my disciple.” “If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Whether you are ready to stomach it or not, Jesus meant exactly what He said. Your father, mother, wife, children, and brethren are not what they appear to be either. We are all angels. Every last one of us. We are all equals. We are all the same. There is not one higher or better than the other.

“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.” We have to let go of this world with everything in it. We need to forsake it all, and leave it all behind. What happened to Lot’s wife? We are to deny ourselves through abstinence, letting go of our flesh with it’s lusts, passions, and desires, as we continue our walk back to the Father. If you want to know whether you should stop doing something, there is one very simple answer. What would Jesus do? If He wouldn’t do it, we shouldn’t either.

“And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.” The crucifying of our flesh doesn’t happen all at once, it is something that we continually work on daily. As we let go of something, there is that much more room for the Spirit to occupy our temples. And as we are letting go of self, we begin bearing the very fruits of the Spirit. Are you asking yourselves if you can no longer have sex with your spouse? Jesus said to forsake everything and it is required for our sanctification of the Spirit. “For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that you should abstain from fornication.” It doesn’t say to abstain from adultery.

They didn’t live in a world 2000 years ago as we do today. They didn’t have TV’s, movies, media, R rated movies, and worse. They didn’t have pornography popping up every where they turned as we do today. Yet, this was written nearly 2000 years ago. Maybe this might make some sense to you now, “For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.” We are to abstain from sex with our spouse. What would Jesus do? If He came back right now, at this very moment, search deep inside and ask if you would feel ashamed? Knowing, that you are an angel. That your spouse is also an angel. That you both are male energy, and that you both are brothers. Remember, the prodigal son’s.

As we begin our walk back to the Father, He sees us afar off, comes to us, kisses us on the neck and welcomes us back. One of the most profound experiences that we could have spiritually. You are not only His son, you become, His disciple. Now, as we are letting go, we all have a task to perform while we are still here. “Feed my sheep.” “And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest. Go your way; behold, I am sending you out as lambs in the midst of wolves.” As we let go, as we become more like Him, His reflection is seen in us. We have a duty. We have an obligation. “Feed my lambs.”

We need to show others the way, the truth, and the life that we found. Fret not when the whole world will despise and reject you. They did the same to Jesus. Marvel not as if some strange thing happened to you. We are no longer part of this world, we are only in it now. In His reflection, as we are beginning to see the new man, we spend more time with Him and in His Word. The Bible has become alive to us. After you found the treasure buried in the field, the field becomes a green pasture, or a great orchard. So, no matter where we look, and no matter where we turn, we hear the Word. We see the Word. We understand the Word. “And His disciples heard it.” Quite literally. “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.”

Start your path back to the Father in Jesus Christ. Begin with His words, and in the Gospels. Your temple can only be built off of His words. I pray that the foundation which was laid, the planting, watering, and the pulling of weeds, will be beneficial for your eternal salvation. May the Everlasting Father, the God of Mercy and Peace, shine brightly within your hearts. And finally brethren, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
