Here is the second part:
The Spiritual Beings
The angels are among the spiritual beings. Angels don’t have wings. They are among the first spiritual beings created by God. The spiritual beings are the finest creations in terms of purity because they were made purely out of the words of God, unlike man which was created through the blending of the four essential elements of life: soil, water air, and light. Spirits are purer than human beings. All spiritual beings may enter or dwell in either living or non-living things but are not essential for them (living things) to sustain life. Only human beings need spirits to sustain life.
There are two substances of life - material and spiritual. All living things are experiencing material life. Spiritual life is being experience by all spiritual beings which are from the very beginning of their existence never experienced birth. The existence of man is the blending of the two substances, thus man is a dual dimensional entity and he needs both material and spiritual life for existence. The spirit made him a rational being.
Soul: The (Re) Incarnated Spirit. The soul is an incarnated spirit and has been in the human body since the latter’s birth until death. A soul is a spirit who had experienced birth to a material body of human being. Therefore, a soul is the same as spirit yet more experienced than the latter, and may have already acquired the rudiments of “mortality,” an ingredient to be the subject of judgment.
Birth is the spirit’s opportunity, and the sole mode permitted by God, to experience material life on Earth. And, although the spirits can assume (project) a material human form instead of experiencing birth, this projected image has a temporal condition and will never posses the real essence of material existence. The desire of the spirits to experience material life may be the consequence when many angels have tried to emulate what Lucifer had done to Eve in the Garden of Eden. This had reference to the book of Genesis ...that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. (Genesis 6:2). This event was the turning point that leads to the exploitation of human beings by these fallen spirits resulting to the emergence of “mighty ones” known as the Nephilim. Although these Nephilim were recognized by men as “heroes,” their coming out to this material world was not in conformity with the standard procedure set by God, a violation to the Divine Law. This may be the reason why they were called the fallen angels.
Before a human being will be born there are already countless spirits contesting to be incarnated in his body. This is the spiritual side of conception.
After death, the soul may manifests itself in places where the material body used to go because it still carry the human energy left by the material body which is very strong just after death. This is what commonly termed as ghost, when the soul has not yet realized that he is no longer in material form. The usual appearance of the ghost was the last of that of the material body at the time of death. In this condition, the mind-over-matter state is being experienced by the soul and his image is known as thought projection, when the mind (psyche) is so strong to project itself to material things. But upon comprehension that the soul is no longer in the material body, the energy in him will then eventually fade away.
By the time, the soul will be separated from the material body he will experience the “limbo” state where there is the thinking that he is still alive and doing the usual things his material body does. It will be followed immediately by the state of realization and acceptance that he is again in pure spirit form. Then, there is the recollection of all his previous experiences before finally entering the Spiritual World - a final glimpse of his pasts.
Angels: The Aides. The angels are among the countless spirits created by God. They are like in the image and, or likeness of men and were created to aid God in His Kingdom. These angels are highly developed in terms of spirituality because they were created purely as spirits. They do not use their senses as human beings do; instead they use their psyche and travel through astral or teleportation, a system so ordinary in a very highly advanced civilization, like theirs. The angels’ task is to guide and protect man as the most treasured creation of God: to let him know the purpose of life; to distinguish good from evil; to adhere to the law of morality, and to reject immorality; and, to make man aware of the existence of God.
Man is more superior to angel, yet dependent from it. He was the last creation of God and all were created first in preparation for his coming. Angels were created first before man was. Angels can exist even without men, but men cannot live a god-centered life without angels. However, angels are still subject to the Law of God (Divine Law) because of free will: the determining factor in decision-making.
Once an angel failed in his duty to guide man and let himself be seduced by his own free will, resulting to adherence or submission to wrong deeds, he will be called a “fallen angel.” This is a consequence of disloyalty to God, a turning point in becoming a demon or a devil.
Angels are classified according to the tasks they are assigned to. But, why angels are given the tasks? What is the reason? For what purpose? Does it mean a “division of labor?” If this is a division of labor, there must be works that they have to do? And, for what or to whom the works are then? Did God have not created everything when He created the Heaven and the Earth? Had He not finished everything He supposed to do? If not, then there must be unfinished plans to be completed.
