The Angels Who Disobey God

From: Messages of God's Love: 1936

There are angels who do not obey God, although knowing well His greatness and glory. In pride they have tried to make themselves greater.

Someone may tell you that they are only fairies, but God speaks of them in the Bible as most wicked beings and warns us of them. The leader is called Satan, and by the serpent spoke to Eve to make her think God’s words were not true, and still tries in different ways to have people believe what is not true.

But if we truly believe God’s words and trust Him, we will not think or do Satan’s way (Ephesians 6:16, 17¹⁶Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. ¹⁷And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: (Ephesians 6:16‑17)).

God has told us that at last Satan and all the wicked angels are to be shut up forever and ever, where they can no more tempt people to sin (Matthew 25:41⁴¹Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: (Matthew 25:41); Revelation 20:10¹⁰And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (Revelation 20:10)).
