RECENT YEARS HAVE BROUGHT AN UNEXPECTED REVIVAL ot popular interest in angels. Books professing to draw back the curtain-on the unseen angelic world filled entire bookstore shelves. Here, as if to mock the cold universe of modernity, were the stories of numerous and warm encounters with angelic beings. But who are angels, and what is their nature and purpose in the biblical scheme of things? Are the biblical stories to be taken literally or symbolically, or should they be relegated to another day and age? How have the great theologians of the church regarded the angels? And most important, what are the nature and role of angels in God's cosmos and his redemptive plan? Stephen Noll answers these questions in this detailed exploration of angels in the tapestry of Scripture. Here is a biblical-theological study of angels, Satan and the powers that fills a significant gap and will command the attention of serious students of Scripture. 235.3083081504X98 Perpustakaan STTB Bandung Theological Seminary 235.3 Nol a E99029421 Non Fiction 235.3 Nol a Angels_of.jpg 31470 2014-11-27 11:54:25 2024-10-25 12:53:49 machine generated
