What are the beings we call angels? Do you believe they exist? If so, how are they different than us? Have angels ever been human? Are there angels now living among us, quietly going about their day anonymous to all? Thank you for answering.

I witnessed once and I believe angels are people like us that evolved, and after reincarnations we will all be perfect too, that we reincarnate to learn how to love and have greater habits. I think angels love humans, animals and the nature and feel one with it all and is really compassionated. I believe in angels but that he is someone from other life like a father, and he helps me through this life.

I believe angels exist, and "there are angels among us." Angels can be humans..these are people that help other people, always do good things, and see good things in people that others don't see. Mother Theresa to me is a "living angel."

i think angels do differ a lot from us, humans is as far as we go up the chain, or ladder... angels are supernatural beings.. i think they are immortal and humans die, turn into ashes... hehe i believe angels don't die unless they are casted out to some place or probably burned by God? but at least that is what i know... angels are created... supernatural beings that aren't really born like humans are... of course in religion, God's love for his angels and humans are no different... we are all loved by God, humans, animals, the earth...

What differs us from angels is that we've been given authority or chance to inherit the kingdom of God because we are called sons and daughters. So we are actually heirs but of course it depends on how we live our life here on earth. Whereas angels are followers of God like warrior angels, messenger angels, guardian angels, etc. And as far as I know each angel has their own tasks assigned to them. So I can say that we are a higher form of being created by God. We are molded by His own hands, that is also one thing. We have been given bodyguards, I mean guardians because we are His sons and daughters. And he wants to protect the inheritors of His throne. There are a lot of differences but that is all that I want to give emphasis. Have a nice day!

Well Im coming from all the text I studied. Angels are created from light. This means formless by nature. But they are also shape shifters, taking any forms willed. In some text they are also referred to as aliens. They can also possess.
