Cherub angel What does an angel look like, and do they exist?
I have heard many people tell me that angels are absurd. Even many Christians tell me that they do not believe in angels. Stereotypically, an angel lives in heaven, has wings and a halo, and plays the lyre atop a cloud. Is this image correct? I'm sure that the bible speaks of angels as "cherubim" but I m not sure. Also seeing how "Elohim" is a plural word, is it referring to the angels in heaven, or is it reffering to the one God as is claimed by so many Biblical scholars, the plurality of the noun indicating greatness. I have also looked up cherub on Wikipedia, and have discovered that the tradition of putting cherubs (angels) along entrance halls goes back to the pagan cultures of the fertile crescent. The cherubim, as explained by Wikipedia, are depicted by the pagan pre-Judaic cultures as winged creatures with the bodies of lions and the heads of men. Is this evidence, along with the Gilgamesh legend, a sign of Judaism and Christianity being counterfeit religions?
Angels are scriptural created by God:
to serve God,
watch over the human race,
deliver His message,
guard and protect us from danger,
battle with other spiritual beings on our behalf.
They are suppose to be ministering spirits to serve those who inherit salvation. They physically provide for God's guidance.
They offer encouragement. Provide supernatural protection and rescue and minister as an angelic army of God even in pain and death.
Those are the things the Bible tells us about angels with repeated examples of how they influenced man, watched over him and fought for him. If you believe the Bible to be God's word then you must believe in Angels too.
Everyone knows the stories of how Satan(an angel himself) tried to raise himself up as if he too was a god. How he rebelled and how God banished him from heaven. He and his legions of followers have tried to turn mankind from God.
Through lies and deceit they promise whatever they think will accomplish this. This eternal battle for man's souls has been fought by the good angels and these bad angels. That's a basic statement of belief.
What they look like is really immaterial but they have always been pictured as tall regal angels with large expansive wings.
Why that picture? I believe that when the stories of the Bible were being passed by word of mouth they took images that the people were familiar with and used them in their explanations. So it would be totally understandable why they were seem in pagan pre-Judaic cultures. It does not make any religion counterfeit. It makes it human.
Man accepted these stories and throughout history angels have been described in that way. Personally, I think angels look like any and all mankind. They are physically without form but can assume form to permit them to follow God's directions and offer us protection.
I have never seen one but I have felt the presence of good and in my heart know it was an angel.

Russell Brand's Cherub Picture?
Russell Brand used to have a picture of two cherubs intertwined as his slogan on his website, it's not there anymore and I'm after the pic to have it done as a tattoo. Does anyone know where I can get hold of it? It's slightly different to the usual angel / cherub pics. I've gone thru all the Russell Brand sites and angel / cherub picture websites, but can't find the exact pic he had.
Try looking under Russell Brand in google under images and you might find it. I do hope your not having a picture of Russell Brand on your body as he is a bit of a tw*t. If you just want the Cherubs then look up renassiance painting or leonardo da vinci.

Like the music it celebrates, Round Midnight is long on atmosphere, short on formal structure, alert and open to improvisation, making this 1986 drama the most authentic glimpse of jazz yet filmed. Its subject, Dale Turner (played by Dexter Gordon), is a composite of brilliant but bruised jazz warriors who left America behind for self-imposed European exile, finding a more tolerant and appreciative audience while never completely eluding their private demons...

I saw an image of Christ this morning on my wall?
When I woke up this morning I was staring at my wall. It is the kind of bumpy painted drywall. Anyway, as I was staring at it, the first thing I noticed was that the shapes form into what looked like Jesus on the crucifix. After this I got up to start my day. I've never had this happen to me before. What does this mean?
Sometimes a vision of Jesus on the cross is a reminder of what he did for you, because today is not on the cross He is building a mansion for you and when it is done He is coming back for you.
