Angels live in the pages of scripture, they take flight in almost every ancient culture, and they have survived the test of time.  There is a reason they persist till the present day, they create a link between humanity and the “God”.  Do angels really exist?  The answer is, it doesn’t really matter, it is the message that counts.  If an angel were to swoop down, and protect an innocent child from stray bullet, that would be awe inspiring.  But if someone were to truly care, and teach morality and compassion to the one who held the gun, that would be miraculous.

 

 

There are several different groupings for the Arch Angels, different sources give different orders.  Generally there are seven, and a few appear in every list.  I have only listed a few sources for the sake of space.
