Angels

I have only to glance around my grandfather's house to see angels. My grandmother collected them - little ones, tall ones, beautiful ones, cute ones. But not one like you find described in the book of Ezekiel with four faces and six wings. Wouldn't you like to see someone make a figurine of that?

Angels are mysterious creatures in so many ways because Scripture tells us so little about the legions of them God has within His command. Yet when we do see them, they amaze us. Whether they are foretelling the future to Daniel, proclaiming the birth of the Messiah or guarding the entry to Eden; these creatures are far beyond human imagination. We are so very different from them. But as we are all created by God, surely there is something we can learn from them.

In his book Angels, Dr. David Jeremiah takes us on a tour through the Scriptures and the angels within those divine pages. Much can be learned from these created beings, but the most important of all? The worship of God. It is their duty. It is our duty. So let us follow their example and glorify our God.

This book was provided for review by Waterbrook Multnomah Publishers.
