Dreaming of Angels Dressed in White

Continued from page 1

Angels are a wonderful supernatural creation of God, but it is important that we do not confuse their traits and abilities with God’s abilities. Here are a few of the differences between God and his angels:

In the Bible, it seems that angels can speak any human language fluently. Here are some examples where angels spoke in the language that people understood:

• Egyptian spoken to Hagar (Genesis 16)

• Hebrew spoken to Gideon (Judges 6)

• Aramaic spoken to the Virgin Mary (Luke 1)

• Greek spoken to Cornelius (Acts 10)

Angels can also communicate with or without words. An example of this is the story told above where an angel brought a clear message, without speaking a word, to Hope and Harry. 1 Corinthians 13:1 may also refer to the fact that angels have a language they speak among themselves.

The rider on a white horse is not found in Revelation 20:3. The rider is found in Revelation 19:11-16. The context here refers to Christ returning as a Warrior-Messiah-King.
