Angels. Are they real?

i watched one documentary about kids seeing angels. now these kids are students in some school here. they claim that they see angels during daytime. the documentary even showed a video of these kids pointing on the same direction as they were showing where the angels are. now it got me thinking, since most of us dont believe in them now and we all have important things to do than believe in them, are they really real?

Angels are the imagination of people. people like peace a beauty. So they imagine the sweet creature that is most lovable a pretty good. This is the indication how people want to imagine the earth as heaven. In the trouble of life people try to design the world with their imagination. And in imagination they like to create some pretty creature and angel is the imaginary creation.

I think your first think is closer to the reality than the second thought you achieve after viewing the documentary. That documentary is based on the belief of that director and the ream.

I would say that angels are definitely real but the word angel I would say has multiple meanings. I believe there are both heavenly angels as well as physical angels that are on our earth right now. There are so many beautiful people and I believe that every person that means a lot or has taught you great life lessons is an angel. It's unfortunate that people are getting so distracted by earning money and working their lives away to believe in angels. It's sad to see the world becoming so commercialized and run by money.

Because there have been plenty of times when I've felt the presence of a divine being and I've felt the grace of a divine power. I've also read a lot of religious texts that make sense to me and also I don't know how we would know about angels if they didn't exist.

Why do you believe on heavenly angels?

How did you know that it was a divine grace? Maybe it was just a hunch overdrive. You'll never know. Your last statement is my point. How do you believe in angels if you don't see them?

I believe we all have angels all around us.They are God's helpers. Kids have an amazing sense of extra ordinary and one of these is seeing angels. My son did when he was small and it scared me cuz I thought it was a premonition of sorts but no he's 43 now and he wouldn't admit seeing those angels now. I believe and know they are with us. Take care. quita

His description of what he was talking about told me and then he and I talked about it. I'm just glad I had the forsight to be broadminded enough to listen and gain his confidence. He's a good man now and I owe that to our relationship when he was small. I am sure angels exist. They are all arond us helping God do his work.

It is human's nature that when someone says anything unbelievable, we do not believe that person until and unless we face that same situation. So, I really can't say that whether i believe in angels or not. But many people told me that angels are there. So I can't deny it as one person can lie but a hundred persons cannot. So, at times I believe in angels but sometimes I change my mind thinking that angels aren't there. Have a nice day!

yeah. cuz sometimes when we don't see things, we don't believe it. a lot of people actually believe in them. i thought it was only kid's stuff back then.

Yea, before only kids use to believe as they found such things really interesting as they see angels, ghosts in movies and all. But nowadays, alot of people are too believing in it for some or the other reason. Mostly, people are having encounters with angels and all.

I definately believe that there are angels. They are angels of the lord and God made these angels. I think that it is a blessing from the lord himself to be able to see one of his angels. We all pray for good things to happen and for the God to bless our families and lives. These angels are God's helpers and they all work for the good of the Lord.

I believe in angels but sometimes we can't be sure if some people see false apparitions of some kind.. some stories of angel encounters in my opinion are true if it was described that happened in the midst of a terrifying life threatening event of christians in full service to their missions.. I believe it coz basically, if its in the Bible, then it is absolutely true..

Yeah i guess. We've been told to believe everything in the bible. It's where the belief of our religions roots from.

Well, I might have not seen any angel in my life. But I do believe that they are around guarding us all the time. In my own thought, they even appear in the form of a person who helps you along the way.. They could be the man around the corner, the person along the street, a stranger and most often they are spirits the speaks to your conscience and help you decide on what to do most especially on crucial times. End the end, it is all up to you to listen or follow them.

im not really sure but i guess yes specially to those baby. i remember when i was still a child when one of my cousin visit our province with her baby, she left the baby alone in the room and so when i saw it i pick it up thinking its a live doll LOL. im actually the youngest in our family so i never saw a baby like that small before, so when i pick it up the baby kick me and i was out of balance and i fall but i never feel anything as i what i feel that time was theres someone who tried to protect my head and the baby as it was very soft and its like it was trying to put my head in a nice way. then when i open my eyes, i saw the baby lying in my stomach and laughing then when i look around theres no one and not even a pillow in my head, the floor is actually cement so my head supposed to hit it but i didnt feel anything. my mother said that it was the baby's angel who save us.

I dont know if angels really exists because I havent seen them and only faith is the reason why we believe in them. They said that angels help us to be more closer with god. They also guide us when we were just a baby and still guide us until now. But as we grow old, we made many sins that makes them leave us.

Your story is mind boggling. In my place, it's called 'Manguusog'. The person who uses 'tawas' right?

When I was 10 years old I asked my dad if angels were real. My dad is a church pastor and this was what he told me. One day he was travelling to a foreign place, and was trying to find an address where he was supposed to meet someone. He couldn't find the place and later on was convinced he was lost. Out of nowhere, a man came up to him and asked "Are you Mr. (last name)?" My dad was surprised that he knew his name. Thinking of nothing to say, my dad just said yes. The man then pointed him to the right direction and went on his way. My dad was finally able to arrive in his destination. According to my dad, angels are everywhere. They might not be supernatural or holy beings, but people helping other people. ;-)

A different kind of angel. i see. yeah, some would say after they're helped by someone 'you are such an angel.' although there only some who helps unconditionally.

I somehow believe of their existence. I believe that they are there around watching over us and just waiting if we want to contact them. I remember when my son was just a baby he would usually stare blankly at times and sometimes he would giggle and make those sounds like he is conversing with someone looking at one direction only. I really believe that he is still making contact with his angel. At my age I still believe there is someone watching over me besides God. I think he is there at times trying to communicate with me but I could just not feel it as I got disconnected with him as I mature. But, I think believing that they are there is an assurance enough for me to be assured that nothing bad will happen to me. How I wish I could talk to them directly so I can somehow be guided in life. I even attended a seminar about it and the speaker claimed that he can get in touch with his angels. He said that angels are like us they have moods like ours except that they seem to have a much tolerance with anger. It seems they may look very passive but they do talk about their assignment with one another.

yes. there are times when we just lose our beliefs towards them. and i think it s because we cant see them. for most of the people, seeing is believing.
