→Characteristics of Angels
==Characteristics of Angels==
==Characteristics of Angels==
Throughout the [[Bible]] there are mentions of people interacting with angels and of angels intervening on behalf of people. Angels, as far as their relation to man, seem to be devoid of natural affection. That is, they relate and interact, and involve themselves with the affairs of man not motivated by personal attachmentments, attractions, choices, affinitities, etc. They come to us from God, with a message, an act, that expresses the will and choice of their Creator alone. This provides them a certain authority transcending their personal. Demons, on the other hand, involve themselves totally with their subjects, merging themselves with their oppressed, dominating all to their own evil spirit, until all seem to be "one" in destruction. Expelling a demon is therefore freeing a man to be himself once again. All this is not to say that angels have no natural affection among each other. Just that, in their relationship to mankind, they are ruled by the will of God.

Angels were also known to impregnate human women, who in turn gave birth to heroic giants, or Nephilim.<ref>Genesis 6:4</ref>
