You might ask the question, I even asked it when I was asked to write this book by my publisher, why would I write a book about angels? Why would I study angels? It may seem like a kind of fringe topic and there's a lot of craziness and bazaar things said about the supernatural and angels and all the rest. And in this realm, in this environment, this spiritual environment there are angels, there are demon spirits who are fallen angels, and certainly there is Satan, but above all and over all is God Himself who governs the universe. And all around us is a realm, a supernatural dimension, the kingdom of God. And the unseen world dramatically, dynamically influences the seen world. Don't tell me something spiritual'! Well, the spiritual world, the unseen, invisible world is more real than what we see. And when we talk about spiritual things, you know, 'Oh, tell me something real. Sometimes we look at what we have around us and we say this is the real world.

The physical world, the tangible world is temporal and is passing away. Now I've been telling you for a number of years that there is an unseen, invisible world all around us. I want to remind you that angels exist, as we exist, to exalt our God, to worship our God. He was a Man among men, the Son of God, the Savior of the world.

Never think that Jesus was a pale, sanctimonious recluse. The 'oil of gladness' means leaping for joy. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness (more than your companions or) beyond your companions.'' That's speaking of Christ who was full of joy. Hebrews, chapter 1, verses 6 through 9: 'And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, 'Let all God's angels worship him.' Of the angels he says, 'He makes his angels winds, and his ministers (again, angels) a flame of fire.' But of the Son he says, 'Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.
