An Act of God

Under God’s direction, Angela had just set everyone free on Hearth.

From now on, they were going to have to learn to take care of themselves. As Gabriel’s betrothed future spouse, Angela had assumed his former duties as the Commander of God’s Armies on Hearth. It was her right and position to do so. She had been sent by God to clean up his mess.

Suddenly, Gabriel appeared before Angela, and screamed, “What have you done? You ruined everything! You will be punished for your betrayal! I will destroy you.”

Whether Gabriel had teleported there, or God had teleported him there, Angela didn’t know, because he was still off her radar. She could see him with her physical eyes, but she couldn’t sense him with her spirit.

As Gabriel raised his hand to strike back at Angela and Faith, the whole of eternity opened up in vision behind Angela; and, the Hosts of Heaven or the Intelligences in the Universe, the Angels of God, the beloved and chosen Son of God, and God the Father were standing behind Angela and Faith.

God the Father presided and immediately said to Gabriel, “You will do no such thing. I name thee Lucifer, Satan, my adversary, the one who rebelled against God. I remove you as Commander of my Angels on Hearth. Angela is no longer yours to marry. And, you are no longer a Celestial Resurrected Being.”

Then God called out, “Do the Hosts of Heaven concur?” There was a reverberating “YES” throughout the whole of heaven.

Gabriel died, then and there. His spirit body separated from his physical body, and his physical body and resurrected body dropped to the ground dead. Angela and Faith sensed a gasp of wonder run throughout the Hosts of Heaven. A Son of the Morning had just died. Nobody had ever realized that a Resurrected Angel could be killed, because this was the first time it had ever happened among this group of God’s children.

In fact, Angela sensed two-thirds of Gabriel’s priesthood power leave him. God left Gabriel only what He felt that Gabriel deserved to keep, in order to keep his spirit body alive. God had other uses for Gabriel now and desired to see what Gabriel would choose to do next.

Faith realized that this whole procedure could have easily been misinterpreted by fallen mortal persons such as herself (or such as she had just been) because mortal beings don’t fully understand how things really work in the heavens. With God the Father it is all about intent; and, Faith implicitly understood the intent of God’s question or command. Faith always sought understanding, and it was immediately forthcoming while in the presence of God.

Faith found it interesting that when God the Father spoke to the hosts of heaven or the intelligences in heaven, He wasn’t holding a vote nor was He seeking for permission or common consent. God the Father was telling the intelligences or the controlling psyches, in the energy and within the physical atoms, that they are no longer to support and sustain Gabriel or Lucifer as God’s representative here on Hearth. Their response was to let God know that they had gotten the message or the command. That was the end of Gabriel. He had become something else instead. All of God’s light and glory were pulled out of him, and all that remained was a sort of dark and painful and miserable light. Spirit bodies and spirit matter are also made of light, just like physical matter; and, Gabriel’s spirit body was now dingy and dusky looking, as Gabriel or Lucifer now assumed his true form and started to represent what he had truly become.

There are always multiple different perspectives for the same event.

Angela could see Gabriel’s spirit body. Everyone in Heaven could. He was naked, until he pulled himself together and enrobed himself. His spirit was simultaneously incredulous, surprised, and even angry. Gabriel was trying to pull his physical body back around himself and bring it back alive, but he could no longer do so. God had taken those abilities away from him. He tried to teleport someplace else and hide himself; but, he couldn’t. Gabriel was imprisoned now. He screamed out in anger, fear, and wrath at God, “You can’t do that. It’s mine. I earned it. I deserve it.”

God replied, “You also deserve what I just did for you, in consequence of breaking your covenants with me, for plotting against me, for betraying me, and for trying to take my position, my mission, and my children away from me.”

Lucifer screamed, “You can’t do that.”

God responded, “Sorry my son, but I just did. You will never have another physical body for as long as you exist. You have been condemned to hell, misery, and outer darkness for your rebellion. Depart from us Satan, mine adversary. You are no longer welcome here in our presence.”

Lucifer burst out in uncontrollable rage, as the abyss opened up and swallowed him. The last Angela saw of Gabriel, he was weeping, wailing, and gnashing his teeth at them. She had never seen nor felt such anger, hatred, misery, surprise, and rage. She had this feeling suddenly wash over her and realized how grateful she was that she hadn’t married that jerk.

In contrast, Faith found herself feeling sorry for that man, because she could sense what he had just lost. He was headed down. The direction was definitely down.

God the Father called forth another one of His single resurrected sons, an Angelic Seraph, and asked him if he would be willing to be the next Commander of God’s Hosts on Hearth as well as in Heaven. He agreed. Then God asked the Hosts of Heaven, “Do you support MICHAEL as the Archangel and the Commander of my Hosts on Hearth and in Heaven?”

There was a unanimous “YES,” which reverberated throughout the hosts of heaven or the intelligences of heaven. The intelligences, or psyches in the energy and within the physical atoms, had gotten the message and had accepted God’s command.

Michael means “someone who is like God”. Gabriel or Lucifer wasn’t like God. Michael was. Michael had held positions and callings similar to Gabriel’s on other worlds; but, Michael had remained faithful to God and His plan, whereas Gabriel had not.

Angela was thinking how glorious and handsome Michael looked, as all of Gabriel’s former light and energies and priesthood powers settled upon Michael at God’s command. One thing Angela knew for sure. She wanted to get to know that man. And, she already knew that Michael is single, because all the Seraphim or Angels in Heaven are single and theoretically available.

Meanwhile, Faith was thinking about how wonderous all of this is. She was basking in the light. She could tell that she was in the spirit because she could see all around herself simultaneously – 360 degrees, up and down, as well as forward and back. Yet, she still felt grounded on Hearth. The experience was a calm and peaceful and secure omniscience that she found pleasing. Faith was starting to feel the joy. She was finally back home where she wanted to be.
