The Apostle Paul wrote to the church at Philippi and said, “The mystery of iniquity does already work, only he who now letteth (original Greek – detains) will let (detain), until he be taken out of the way (until the church is taken up out of the way. Similarly, the destruction of Sodom was delayed, until Lot was rescued from that wicked city). And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the Spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming; even him, whose coming is after the work of satan, with all power, signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in those who perish, because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved” 2 Thessalonians 2:7-10. I started this multi-part series with Ezekiel’s description of God descending from heaven, with His cherubim surrounding Him in “wheels,” found in Ezekiel 1. While summarizing this study of the fallen angels, I am going to go over Ezekiel’s description of these cherubim and their wheels once again, providing more detail than what was written in Part 1 of this series (and I will include my own notes): “I looked and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud and a fire enfolding itself, and a brightness was about it and out of the midst thereof as the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire. Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures, and this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man, and every one had four faces and every one had four wings (these are the same cherubim Ezekiel saw in chapters 10 and 11), and their feet were straight feet and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot and they sparkled like the color of burnished brass. And they (the living creatures) had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides, and they four had their faces and their wings. Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward (they didn’t stop, or turn, but went in any direction immediately without turning around). As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right side, and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle. Thus were their faces, and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies. And they went every one straight forward, whither the spirit was to go, they went, and they turned not when they went. As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps; it went up and down among the living creatures and the fire was bright and out of the fire went forth lightning. And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning (I have witnessed this movement in UFOs myself). Now, as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces. The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the color of beryl (variations in color, but also transparent to translucent glassy mineral) and they four had one likeness; and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel. When they went, they went upon their four sides and they turned not as they went. As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful, and their rings were full of eyes round about them four. And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them, and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up. Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither was their spirit to go, and the wheels were lifted up over against them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels. When those went, these went, and when those stood, these stood, and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels. And the likeness of the firmament (sphere) upon the heads of the living creature was as the color of the terrible crystal (transparent, as in glass – like a window) stretched forth over their heads above. And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other; every one had two, which covered on this side, and every one had two, which covered on that side their bodies. And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of a host. When they stood, they let down their wings” Ezekiel 1:4-25. The Word of God describes angelic beings. If we believe in God, we must also believe in His angelic beings, as well as those who fell with satan. I am out of space for now, but will have more on the fallen angels next month, God willing.
