...Are Angels Real? Read This Story and Decide for Yourself An Angelic Encounter This is a personal story that happened to me. Some people read this and say that they believe I was visited by angels. Others say it is bogus. Read it and tell me what you think. The verse that corresponds to this first story is: Hebrews 13:2 - Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. I believe I encountered angels one day while on a bicycle ride. I'm not sure if God was testing me as the above scripture makes clear, but I am sure the meeting with these angels was not of this humanly world. I ride a road bicycle quite a lot. I used live out of town so my rides either headed back into town or way out toward the middle of nowhere on the highway headed to the next town. The highways of New Mexico are usually sparsely traveled. On this particular day, I was battling a headwind and it was a bit of struggle. I couldn't wait until I got out around 10 miles because the 10 miles home would be fast with the wind on my back. About 3 miles from home, I came up to the top of a small hill and noticed a white mini-van about 100 feet down the other side of the hill. As I approached it, I noticed that the young man standing next to the van had taken a badly deteriorated flat tire off the van and had his spare laying next to it. There were rubber and steel belts all over the place as the blow out appeared to be sudden and dangerous. I stopped...

...During this experiment we’ll locate 2 points and measure the distance between them and then we’ll but the theodolite on each point and measure the horizontal angles with a building that in our view and then measure its vertical angles from the top and the bottom of the building with the horizon and our objective from this experiment is to Get familiar with theodolite instrument and know the basics of it and what it used for and learn how to do centering and levelling to the instrument and we increase our ability of making reads and measuring angels ( vertical and horizontal ) . Equipment: 1- Theodolite instrument 2- Calculator 3- Tripod 4- Ranging poles Results & Calculations: Data (with graph) Horizontal angel AB = 4.9 M We set the theodolite at point A and we measure angels α1 and α2 after levelling and centering the theodolite And then we move the instrument to point B to measure angels α3 and α4 By theodolite the angels will be like the following : α 1 = 19.1 gon = 17.19° α 2 = 73.22 gon = 65.89° α 3 = 21.59 gon = 19.43° α 4 =113.53 gon = 102.18° - α 5 = 180° - (α 1+ α 2+ α 4) - α 5 = 180° - (185.26) - = -5.26 = 5.26° - α 6 = 180 – (α 3 + α 4 + α 2) - α 6 = 180 – (187.5) - = -7.5 = 7.5° using the tape we measure length of AB and by calculation we can measure A'B' B' B A - AB’ / (sin (α 4 + α 3)) = AB / sin α 6 AB’ = (AB * sin (α 4 + α 3))/ sin α 6 AB’ = 31.97 M A' B A - BA’ / (sin (α 1 + α 2)) = AB / sin α 5 BA’ = (AB *...

...English essay Soon I was in deep sleep. I was woken up by a very strange light. The light was golden and was bright. There was no other light in the room except that one and it looked like it came from one person. Well, you can’t call it a person I’d say. It was about the normal average height of an adult. It had pointed ears and slightly upturned eyes. It had a small wooden stick, probably a wand in her hand and a brownish bag in the other. It was wearing a colourful frock and her hair was tied in a bun. She was also wearing a necklace. It clearly was a female, whatever it was. She looked kind of an elf, the ones you read in Artemis Fowl but soon after I realized that she was a fairy. She was shocked to see me as I was to see her. Then I slowly gained the courage to ask her who I she was and what was she doing in my room. She was a faltering to answer. I told her there was nothing to be scared of and that she could tell me everything freely, I wouldn’t tell it to anyone. She said that she would tell the truth but on the condition that I wouldn’t tell it to anyone. I agreed. She said that she was sent from heaven and she was the new fairy of distributing dreams. So as she was new she was also quite inexperienced. As she was like a new “species” that I had seen probably discovered I was curious. I asked her more. She said that she was Ophelia and she was quite popular in heaven as she was married to the Archangel Gabriel. She was distributing dreams in our colony and my house...

...good, Satan is the representation of evil. This belief is widespread and the majority of people would probably say that this is just the way things are. The eternal battle between God and Satan is constantly portrayed in movies and television as two equal forces battling over the souls of man. Satan is viewed as a fallen angel carrying a big hatchet against God. On the flipside, God is seen as the control freak who just sends His angels to do whatever He needs done. While this view can make a good movie, it’s contrary to what the Bible teaches. Unlike what pop culture would have us believe, God and Satan are not equal in their power and the battle between good and evil was won a long time ago. The Bible teaches that Satan is a created being. He was originally created as one of God’s angels, possessing all of the attributes of an angel, the power of personality and the freedom of choice. He let his pride get in the way of reason and he convinced himself that he was worthy of God’s throne and glory. He also failed to believe that if he committed a sin that God would punish him. He rebelled and God punished him by casting him out of heaven along with the angels who rebelled with him. In Isaiah 14:12-17, we are given some insight into the fall of Satan and his subsequent banishment from God’s presence. “You said in your heart, I will raise my throne above the stars of God… I will make myself like the Most High” Isaiah 14:13-14. Lucifer’s sin wasn’t just his pride but also his disbelief...

...Como sucede cuando tenemos visitas importantes, nuestro comportamiento en casa debe ser de tolerancia y amor, hacia todos, podemos tener diferencias, pero no debemos pelear por ellas, Las fechas y horas son específicas, ya que vienen de la casa de un amigo, se hospedan en la nuestra durante siete días, cuando les pedimos viajar a casa de tres amigos más, quienes estarán listos y esperando hospedarlos durante siete días para luego dirigirlos a otros tres nuevos hogares. Puedes pedir a los Angeles que te ayuden en cualquier proyecto durante esos siete días, siendo recomendable que le tomes el tiempo de pensar en tus deseos con antelación, para que puedas ser claro en tus peticiones y logros que el tiempo juntos sea más eficiente y productivo. Necesitas tener para la ceremonia de bienvenida una hoja donde anotaras: los tres deseos que tienes en el corazón y el nombre y la dirección de las tres personas y sus familias a quienes vas a enviarlos luego de ti.

...sense of Tess being apart of a family about to become extinct. 'Mind this, you'll be civil yet'- Alec's grasp of control over Tess. Also in chapter 52 hardy what's the reader to feel sympathy for Angel, as he had come back looking that he had suffered. Hardy does this as he needs the reader to feel the full impact of the loss of their relationship, through social and moral rules. Angel being perfectly suited husband for Tess, makes the loss of the relationship all more devistating. There is a sense of Angel being a maytr, the suffering for what he had gone through, he looks very gaunt when he comes back: 'sunken eyes' and having a 'morbid hue'. Chapter 45; the convert is the title, which is ironic, as Angel hasn't been converted. Chapter 53; 'fulfilment' - this is the fulfilment of Tess's fate, her destiny of her destruction has been fulfilled. It is ironic as there is no fulfilment of Tess and Angels marriage. Tess and Angel have scarcity of time together, as they are on the run and Tess will inevitably die soon. Chapter 54, page 323 in the opening of the chapter, it mentions :'he was driving up the hill out of which three or four months earlier in the year, Tess had descended with such hopes and ascended with such shattered purposes.' This is indicative of how Angel retraces Tess's steps and her journey, in order to replenish his love and relationship with her. Also on page 323 it mentions: 'the pale and blasted nettle-stems of the preceding year even now lingered...

...Calls Us to the Things of This World” Richard Wilbur Richard Wilbur’s poem, “Love Calls Us to the Things of This World” is about the first moments of the morning when we are between the state of being asleep and being awake. That moment when we aren’t burden with the outside world and still on the outskirts of reality, engulfed in a worry free peaceful zone. As the sleeper is in his peaceful state, the window is open and he hears the “cry of the pulleys” as laundry is being hung and what I envisioned also was him hearing the flapping of the laundry because he says “The morning air is all awash with angles”. That maybe the flapping laundry instead of awakening him even more, reminds him of the flapping wings of an Angel. As the sleeper is in the world of the Angels and harmony, consciousness eventually wins and the sleeper is now aware that it is just laundry flapping in the wind and nothing more. The soul is now descended back into it body and daily life. One then wonders why we would want to wake up from this blissful state of being and the answer to that I believe is love. Just like the title says “Love Calls Us to the Things of This World”. We do things for love and that is why the sleeper leaves the peaceful wondrous state and awakens to a new day. “Love Calls Us to the Things of this World” shows us how different the spiritual world and the real world can be. The man then goes to describe the thieves in the gallows should have clean linens for their backs, the lovers...

...Mr Claire's daughter Eva is like Jesus, she shows her love to everyone, of course, she is also Christian. Depending on her name, let me remember an angle in a movie, and I am sure that Eva represents the image of the angel, and I think the angel in the Bible is the prototype of Eva. She is the incarna-tion of pureness and so different from other children. Eva is beauty in the novel. She always wears the white dress, and her clothes are always kept clean and flawless, who exudes the angel charm. " She has a light gesture, like people in the dream to see the myth or fable in the fairy, her appearance is outstanding, not only because the facial features are perfect, but also be-cause of the kind of unique eyebrows, the dream of the general Pure...

...demon of great power. This demon was from the ancient times of life, and was recently released from his prison in the earth. His original name was a mystery, but people call him Darkness. Centuries ago Darkness had tampered with God’s kingdom, destroying his creations as he went. Many had tried to fight against him, to save their families. But Darkness was too strong, his army was too strong. None that fought him ever survived. There was no hero among this world that could save them. Darkness continued to grow stronger with every waking day. Finally God grew tired of his games, but he could do nothing himself. He could not intervene in the world below. It was among his ideal rules that he could not intervene and of the angels that followed him. The angels however grew tired of watching these creatures suffer. They tried to persuade him to jump in and save them, but he would not. He had decided, however, to create a man. One who could not be defeated in battle, and who had the strength of one hundred men. He sent this man to earth and called him Daniel. Darkness had heard of this creature and how he had not feared him. Darkness laughed at the thought of this man. How could a man defeat him, when all other men were his slaves? All the women had been locked away in cages, so that no man could breed with them. He continued to take all the children and cast them into the depths of hell to grow and learn in the ways of demons. Had God above finally had enough of this war and come...

...eventually cast Satan into hell. This could not be done if they were equal and opposing forces. Revelation 20:10 “and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” It clearly states here the God will have victory and has the ultimate power over Satan. Many disagree on the origin of Satan. They say that God wouldn’t have created such an evil presence in this world if it was up to him. Others say that it is all part of Gods plan for His kingdom and for saving the lost. There are two views that take the stage in regards to Satan. One is the Biblical view and the other is the religious dualism. God gave all His angels free will because He didn’t want them to serve him because they were ordered. He wanted them to be in awe of Him and to want to lift up his name. Out of this Satan came, he thought he should be right up with God and should have the same power. God having the...

Prepare, prepare! Prepare your hearts for Death's cold hand! prepare Your souls for flight, your bodies for the earth; Prepare your arms for glorious victory; Prepare your eyes to meet a holy God! Prepare, prepare! Whose fatal scroll is that? Methinks 'tis mine! Why sinks my heart, why faltereth my tongue? Had I three lives, I'd die in such a cause, And rise, with ghosts, over the well-fought field. Prepare, prepare! The arrows of Almighty God are drawn! Angels of Death stand in the louring heavens! Thousands of souls must seek the realms of light, And walk together on the clouds of heaven! Prepare, prepare! Soldiers, prepare! Our cause is Heaven's cause; Soldiers, prepare! Be worthy of our cause: Prepare to meet our fathers in the sky: Prepare, O troops, that are to fall to-day! Prepare, prepare! Alfred shall smile, and make his harp rejoice; The Norman William, and the learned Clerk, And Lion Heart, and black-brow'd Edward, with His loyal queen, shall rise, and welcome us! Prepare, prepare! Готовьте, готовьте железные шлемы войны, Ведите народы, что брошены в сфере огромной; Могучей рукою направит их Ангел Судьбы И вырвет из плена, во имя земли, уже чёрной! Готовьте, готовьте!

...would be great for Satan. The results of Eve’s sin were great and gave a big victory for Satan. Satan approached Jesus through the same three avenues of temptation as he approached Eve. (Matt. 4: 3; 5, 6; 8, 9). Satan was unsuccessful this time. God is the only eternal self-existent being that we read about which is represented in the Bible. Satan is not self-existent so he had to have a point of origin. God created Satan as a leading Angel who later wanted to become more powerful than God himself. Satan wanted to be worshipped. When reading the Chapter Ezekiel from the Bible it reveals more about a "king" who is obviously Lucifer. God did not create evil however he does reward and punishes according to our obedience. God created his angels and appointed arch angels who were highest of all angels. Since the arch angel had such high power they believed they could overpower God and went against God. The high power angel thought he could persuade Gods people into his world. Punishment came upon the angel and he was considered a fallen angel (Satan). God is the Father of all spirits including Satan’s. The Evangelical Dictionary of Theology, ed. Walter Elwell, 158 Grands Rapids, MI: Baker Book House Company, 2001 Satan has many limitations: He is not Omniscient, Omnipotent, Omnipresent, and he is not sovereign. Satan is powerless before the Son of God (Mark 3:27). We read in (John 12:3 and Colossians 2:14-15) that Christ defeated Satan and all spiritual forces of evil at...
