Through the Eyes of Christ

It is understood and agreed upon by all Christians that angels do not reproduce and yet are countless in number (Hebrews 12:22). Having never sinned or fallen out of grace, angels have what many feel is a confusing relationship to man in that man is made a bit lower than angels and yet will attain a higher status at the fullness of God’s kingdom. A “fallen mind” has a difficult time grasping such a concept - and yet it is the Scriptural Truth (Luke 20:26). However, when we live in other Truths, such as loving others as we love ourselves or seeing others through the eyes of Christ, we are better able to see how angels who have always experienced the beatific vision would welcome us into the kingdom in whatever capacity God desires. The scales of jealousy or envy do not cover an angel’s vision.
