  • Did you know that angels in the Bible don’t have wings? Or that cherubim are not cute, chubby babies? In this video, we explore the biblical portrayals of angels and cherubim to understand just who they are and what role they play in the story of the Bible.
    Special thanks to Dr. Michael S. Heiser, author of “The Unseen Realm,” for script consulting on this series.

    To encounter an angel was a terrifying experience, as most encounters in the old and new testaments, angels would often say "Don't be Afraid".

      because they aren't attractive, higher level demons are very attractive to manipulate humans. Higher level Angels are fierce and fight demons for a living, so they are far from beautiful based off modern standards

    My brother, a Christian, made a trip overseas to feed the hungry. He said he got off the boat and was walking up a road by himself when 3 men started to try to rob him. He said all of a sudden the men looked up behind him and were terrified and ran away. My brother turned and saw a huge Angel with a sword. God is good.

    Thanks Bible project! I would like to share my experience with an angel. It happen during my sophomore year in high school. I was going through a lot so I would ask the Lord to take me with him - I knew better not commit suicide but I just wanted to be with him. I was asleep in my bed and there was a hand pressuring my leg. I thought it was my mother waking me up to go to school so I turned away. But the the had shook my leg and woke me up. I got up half way with my elbows still on my bed - I saw a man shape figure sitting at the edge on my bed. No features, no wings just bright like the images you guys showed. He spoke to me and said that everything will be okay. In that moment, I didn’t realize exactly what was happening I looked at my alarm clock and it was still night time I look back and he/it was gone. Right then there was a small earthquake and everyone woke up to check on me but I was in the state of mind of did that just happen. Everything happen one after the other. Since then even if everything is out of control on this Earth I still know that God is in control. Praise God and Jesus for their mercy and their ultimate love. Even in the darkest God is with us and hurts for us.

      I had a very similar experience about 20yrs ago, except I feel like it was Jesus. I remember it was about 6am, and I was 19.. in a place in life where I wasn't sure what I was doing. I felt lost. Then that morning I felt like I was half awake, half asleep...but my room filled with the brightest light, like the sun rose in my room. But I wasn't blinded, I just felt this incredible warmth, like I was being hugged by love. Then at the foot of my bed I saw an outline of a person, an even brighter light... and I sensed it was Jesus. And in the moment, all I could say was "take me with you. I'm ready to leave it all, I just want to be with you." And a gentle voice just said, "Not yet,it's not time." The warm embrace squeezed me harder, then the light gradually disappeared.
      I sat there feeling a sense of loss because His presence was unlike anything I had or will ever experience on earth. And I just wanted to stay there forever.

I am interpreting the bible how I see it and I realized religion isnt supposed to be all friendly and simple and something that ignores evil. It's supposed to be complex, scary, conflicting, you're supposed to acknowledge evil and get over it, and it's basically everything that goes against what modern religion is. It's awesome to be honest. I rlly like this quote "BE NOT AFRAID of the truth of what we believe in" God bless 🙏

As I laid back in my seat trying to relax I closed my eyes I heard a whoosing sound and as I sat there with my eyes closed I saw a cherub coming down and he flew underneath the plane and as he did that I saw this being held up the plane with noth arms. This was really comforting because I was feeling a bit scared.

    The angel I saw in my room when I was 8 years old did have wings. It was a massive being and I was not afraid at the time - though I was pretty freaked out for a few days after lol. I remember that night vividly, but what stood out the most (besides it’s huge size, probably 12 feet tall, hunched over because my room was too small haha) was the living light moving inside it. I grew up dealing with a lot of fear at night so I believe God showed me my angel to help me know I was not alone.

      ​@auggie1.0 I hate to disagree, but I'd just like to point out that we don't get baptized IN ORDER TO be saved (have the Holy Spirit in us) but rather BECAUSE we are saved. "Declaring with our mouths and believing in our hearts" is proof enough that the Holy Spirit is working in us, and while getting baptized is a good and faithful way to SHOW that work the Holy Spirit is doing, our salvation does not DEPEND on getting baptized. Jesus paid it all, and so we have no debt left, including any physical action or demonstration. When Jesus was hanging on the cross speaking to the other men hanging with him, they were saved just hours before they died. But even though they didn't get baptized, Christ still said that they had a place in heaven.

    I met an angel.
    I was walking into a mall and I dropped my car keys and they fell apart.
    I found every part except for the immobiliser chip.
    I looked and looked for over 2 hours.
    People came to help me find that chip.
    It seemingly vanished.
    Then I prayed to God and Jesus to help me find that chip.
    A short time later I saw a crazy car coming down the road.
    A Datsun 120Y painted army green.
    Like a Harry Potter car, it never slowed down.
    The car parked next to where I was looking for my immobiliser chip.
    The driver walked up to me and asked me: "What am I looking for".

    Ever wondered what an angel would look like if you met one? Well, if the stories in the Bible offer any clues, you probably wouldn’t even know you were talking to one! In the Bible, angels are mysterious beings who often go incognito and look like people (see the stories in Genesis 19 or Judges 13 about Lot's or the wife of Manoah’s lack of awareness in meeting angels). And why do they appear in the first place? In the Bible, the word “angel” simply means “messenger,” and it can refer to both human and spiritual messengers (see Genesis 32:1-3 for both in one story!). The spiritual messengers are sent by God to communicate messages to people (Luke 1:11-13), to protect God’s people (Acts 12:6-7), or to offer comfort or provision (1 Kings 19:5-6 or Mark 1:13). No angel in the Bible is ever depicted with wings, and this is why they can be mistaken for a normal person (check out Genesis 37:15). Part of the reason people think about angels as having wings is because they are confused with the cherubim, but in the Bible, these are very different creatures. Angels look like people and can cross the boundary between heaven and earth, but the cherubim never do, nor do they ever bring messages. The role of the cherubim is to stand guard at the boundary of God’s space (Genesis 3:24), to support God’s heavenly throne (see Psalm 99:1 or 1 Samuel 4:4), and to act as his heavenly choir (Revelation 4:6-9). One fascinating thing about cherubim is their multi-form animal appearance and the fact that they look different every time they appear in the Bible. They have two wings (Exodus 25:20) or four (Ezekiel 1:6). They can appear with one face (Exodus 25:20), two faces (Ezekiel 41:18), or even four! See Ezekiel 10:14 where they have faces of a human, an ox, a lion, and an eagle. And when Isaiah describes the spiritual creatures he sees singing around God’s throne, he calls them “seraphim,” which (get ready for it) is the standard Hebrew word for “snake” (see Numbers 21:6 or Isaiah 14:29). These beings are symbolic mosaics of all the creatures of the earth. They channel all of the birdsong, barking, and bear growls into a song of praise to the Creator: “Holy, holy, holy is Yahweh God of hosts; the fullness of the earth is his glory!” (Isaiah 6:3). There’s a lot the Bible doesn’t reveal about the spiritual realm, but the glimpses we do get remind us that we live in a strange and wonderful universe that is a testament to God’s creative power and love.

      My understanding of the word Seraphim is "Flaming Ones," a reference to the fact that they stand in the presence of God and His holiness. I believe 'nachash' is the Hebrew for snake: in the wilderness, God sent 'nachash saraph' - fiery serpents - upon Israel as a punishment for their sin, as you reference in Numbers 21:6. In Num 21:9, we're told that Moses made a 'nachash n'cosheth' or a bronze snake for the people to look upon, and live.

      also is there a reason you've given them antlers?

      Angels are often sent to Earth to help mankind as heavenly guides, protectors, and messengers. For instance, our guardian angels are always with us.
      For instance, the Book of Tobit describes how the archangel Raphael takes the guise of a human to essentially go undercover as "Azarias" and aid Tobias in defeating the high ranking demon Asmodeus who was plaguing Sarah by killing her would-be husbands (for which she was blamed). And that's only a snippet of this great story from the Apocrypha.

    We’ve received a lot of great questions about our recent Angels and Cherubim video. One question, in particular, has been: Who or what are the seraphim in Isaiah chapter 6, and how do they relate to the cherubim? The rabbit hole, as always, is deep and fascinating! Let’s recall that the cherubim function as guardians at the boundary between heaven and earth (as in Genesis 3:24). They support Yahweh’s throne in the heavenly temple (Psalm 99:1), or carry his mobile throne-chariot that appears to prophets on earth (as in Ezekiel 9:3 and 10:1). An important fact here is that each time they appear, they look slightly different and are called by different titles. They’re “living creatures” (Ezekiel 1) or “cherubim” (Ezekiel 10). They have have two wings (Exodus 25:20) or four (Ezekiel 1:6), with one face (1 Kings 8:6-7) or two (Ezek 41:18) or four (Ezek 10:14)! This variety points to their symbolic nature. The diversity of their appearance mirrors the diversity of the earthly creatures that they represent in the heavenly realm, channeling creation’s beauty into praise to the Creator. These various titles and depictions help us understand what the prophet Isaiah (ch. 6) sees in his vision of the same heavenly throne room. He describes hybrid creatures who perform a similar role to the cherubim, but with some variations. They have six wings (instead of two or four), and they guard the divine throne with their choir song: “Holy, holy, holy is Yahweh of hosts, that which fills the land is his glory” (Isaiah 6:3). In addition, they're called seraphim only here in the Hebrew Scriptures. This uniqueness has led some people to think that seraphim are a species of spiritual being different from the cherubim, but this is unlikely. Isaiah’s vision fits the same pattern of heavenly throne guardians who have different appearances and titles when they show up in scripture. But why are they called seraphim in Isaiah chapter 6? Here's the real rabbit hole! The Hebrew word "seraphim" is one of the common Hebrew words for "snake." And if the image of winged snakes sounds crazy to you, notice that Isaiah uses the same exact word two other times where its meaning is very clear: “flying snakes” (Isaiah 14:29 and 30:6). In Isaiah chapter 14, it’s a metaphor for the ruler of Babylon, who has attempted to ascend into the heavens and usurp God’s throne (14:12-15)! Does that sound familiar? Isaiah’s seraphim are hyperlinked to the rebel cherub in Ezekiel 28:14 and to that clever snake in Genesis 3! This is why we omitted discussion of the seraphim in our Angels and Cherubim video because we’ll focus on them in our forthcoming video on The Satan and Demons. And one last thing! If you’re still not sure if the cherubim and seraphim are the same creature, check out Revelation 4:5-9, where John’s vision of the divine throne room merges imagery from all over the Hebrew Bible. He sees a crystal sky-platform (from Exodus 24:10), with living creatures (from Ezekiel 1) that have eyes all over (from the cherubim in Ezekiel 10), but they have six wings and sing “holy, holy, holy…!” (from the seraphim of Isaiah 6). In John’s apocalyptic imagination, all of these diverse heavenly creatures are really one, transforming the noise and beauty of creation into one ultimate song that honors the Creator and King of all.

    I was still studying back then and I had to travel 4 hours from home to the place where my uni was. It was already past noon and if I didn't take the next bus I would be at my dorm way past after dark. As I was waiting at the terminal, an elderly woman sat beside me. So this bus came and parked right in front of us. I was getting ready to hop on the bus when the grandma pointed out the driver, she said "I think the driver is fixing something, don't you think the bus is not in a good shape?" I was perplexed. I didn't want to miss this one and wait for another hour but deep inside a sense of uneasiness has touched me. And then she said with a voice speaking with conviction "LET'S wait for the next bus." I was shocked. A total stranger would tell me to wait for the next bus and possibly arrive at my dorm by bedtime and I have exams tomorrow and I have to study... my mind was racing trying to weigh my decision. It's also worth mentioning that almost all the passengers took that bus and it was already crowded. But one thing felt right, that I had to OBEY. So, I sat back down at my chair and stared as the bus slowly drives out of the terminal. Later on, the next bus arrived and we gladly hopped on it after a long wait. About halfway to our destination our bus stopped unexpectedly and we can hear loud voices outside. When I looked outside the window, I can feel a cold sensation creep to the back of my head and down my spine... the first bus that we skipped broke down and went off the rode into a huge boulder! I turned towards the grandma in shock and all I can mutter was "thanks." She only returned it with a smile. What's puzzled me is that I can't remember if we disembarked from the bus together, it's as if she vanished. To end this story, I arrived at my dorm late in the night, tired, baffled, amazed, but mostly importantly SAFE! She's truly my guardian angel and I thank God for sending her. Amen 🙏🏻

    When I was little I got my fingers stuck in a heavy door at a storefront. My mom was two thick window panes away and couldn’t hear me screaming and my brother was too little to open the air suctioned door. A tall man appeared out of no where behind me and opened the door to let my fingers loose. I ran inside to my mom and turned around to point to the man who helped me and he was gone…. No cars were around driving off, no people walking away. He appeared and went just like that. I’ve heard other stories such as my aunt who got in a car accident. She was going unconscious and said some lady was with her just comforting her and telling her everything was going to be ok, the ambulance is coming. When the ambulance got there she asked where the woman was and they and bystanders said no one was with her…. I believe on both accounts they were angels. Yes, both families are praying people of Faith in Christ.

      What is idolary?
      Let's look at Exodus 32 with the Golden Calf.
      " [...] And they said, "These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!""
      Exodus 32:4 ESV
      --> call anyone God who is not the true God from the bible and maybe pray to this false God.
      What is veneration of saints?
      for he has looked on the humble estate of his servant. For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed;
      Luke 1:48 ESV
      --> Conpliment saints or call them blessed
      "[...] The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working."
      James 5:16 ESV
      --> ask them to pray for us.
      So it's completely different to idolary. Idolary means to have st least one God.
      When you venerate saints, you don't see them as God, but you ask them to pray for you or call them blessed. When you call them blessed, you praise the works that God's grace allowed them to do [John 15, 1-8]. When you praise ther faith, you also praise the gift of God. So praising saints means praising God.
      When we ask them to pray for us, they do and they are with God in heaven and cleaned from all sins, so their prayer is strong [James 5, 16]. And we know, that, when we receive through their prayer what we wanted, it's a gift from God [James 1, 17].
      Can the saints hear us? Of course they can, because we are connected in the mystical body of Christ through His Holy Spirit.
      So it's no idolary and it's usefull, because the saints can better oray than we can, because we are still sinners. I know, that we are sons amd daughters of God and redeemed, but I don't belief that I can pray as good as the mother of our lord can.
      The rosary consista mainly of the Our Father and the Hail Mary, both are absolutly biblical (the end of the Hail Mary is not in the bible, but from the Holy Spirit given throught saint Cyrill of Jerusalem).
      In the rosary we think on the secrets of our salvation, that's perfect to understand them better and be grateful to God.
      When praying the Hail Mary would be a sin, then the Archangel Gabriel [Luke 1, 28] and Elisabeth [Luke 1, 42] would have sinned in this greetings. Thats unlogic.
      Through the rosary many people came closer to God and many wonders happened. Also a christian telled me today, that, through the rosary the learned how to pray. So remember: "but test everything; hold fast what is good."
      1 Thessalonians 5:21 ESV
      The rosary is a gift from God 😁.

I saw a guy walking on crutches and in a boot. I turned my head to tell my co-leader I wanted to pray for him. As soon as I turned back he had vanished. While my group and k looked for him, it turned into a giant group of about 200 students hearing about Jesus. But only because we turned back to find the guy on crutches so I could pray for him.

    My youth group has been doing the bible project and recently finished the books of the Bible(revelation)
    I am really interested in divine beings, most of my own original characters have some association or is a divine being.

    I wonder if they truly look like griffons with different heads or if their humanoid with four heads. Angels are truly magnificent, praise and worship be to The LORD whom made all of these wonderful creatures!

    Interesting tidbit: I heard somewhere (I think it was in a book discussing Dragons/Dinosaurs) that most cultures (especially older ones) added wings on to figures to represent spiritual significance. The examples in that book were figurines of a tiger with wings, another living creature with wings (I can't remember what it was, though, it's been a while since I read that book), and a fairly decent depiction of a Dinosaur with wings (again, it's been a while, I can't remember what type of dinosaur). That fact stuck with me, and I think it's fair to apply it to how Angels got wings in pop-culture/media.

    So I watched this a while back and I don’t know if it means anything commenting this or if anyone will see it but I recently took the online name of ArduousCherubim. I changed it but a few weeks later had a dream of being in a garden space at night. I saw animals all over and there was a light following me like and untraceable spotlight. I got a better look at one opposed to the others and he was intimidating, as if he knew me and was watching me. Like he was sent on a mission to. He had these white glowing eyes and looked lion like with wings and thin tail. He was on a tree. I also got to pet a cheetah like creature. I woke up and didn’t think anything of the dream until I saw the beginning of this video on tik tok reminding me of what cherubim were. So I’m convinced I actually visited gods temple in a dream space. This gave me a form of hope within the darkness I’ve been in for a while.

    Not religious but learning about angels and the council is incredibly interesting! This is a very well made video and I look forward to watching a few more in the future :)
