Bringing Scripture to Life

Because the Book of Revelation says believers will "reign with Christ" (Revelation 20:4, 6; 22:5), a person recently asked if that meant Angels will worship us in Heaven. Will Angels Worship us in Heaven? One of the central truths of Scripture is that we are to worship only God (Exodus 20:5). When Satan tried to tempt Jesus to worship him, Jesus replied, “Be gone, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve’” (Matthew 4:10). Satan was kicked out of heaven because he tried to exalt himself above God, by seeking worship from others (Isaiah 14:12-16). In the book of Acts, we know that Herod was struck dead for receiving worship as a god (Acts 12:22-23). After being used by God to heal a crippled man (Acts 14:8-10), the people of Lystra attempted to worship Paul and Barnabas (Acts 14:11-13), to which Paul and Barnabas were adamantly against (Acts 14:14), exhorting them to worship only God (Acts 14:15).

   At our Women’s Ministry Bible Study, a question came up as to whether or not angels can sin. This question I was told, led to some very good group interaction. I am hoping it also led to the ladies going home to search the scriptures for some further revelation on the subject. Can Angels Sin?    When answering the question, “Can Angels Sin?” the Bible does indeed shed some light upon this subject for us. However, we must also realize that what the Bible does share in regards to this topic is simply bits and pieces that we can put together in order to get an idea about this subject, but I am not sure there is enough information to make us experts on the topic by any means. I believe more information is needed before we could ever claim to have angels completely figured out, and yet more information regarding this topic is simply impossible to attain, due to the fact that the only authority on the matter is the Bible, and it simply doesn’t give us more to go o...
