Description
Luke 2:8-148 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." 13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14 "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."

And this is when the shepards peed themselves a little bit.

Some do, some don't. Some don't even look human at all.
My friend saw a vision of Jesus dispatching angels and they took off one by one as if on a runway. Their wings had these silver sheathes on them. Sooooo cool!
Interestingly some people who claim to have seen Michael and Gabriel said they don't have wings at all even though they are commonly depicted with them.

We don't know that. The only Biblical descriptions of angelic creatures that we have are cherubim and seraphim, and both have wings (4 and 6, respectively.) It's not too much of a stretch to think all angelic creatures might have wings. And either way, it looks awesome like that!

Amazing! God bless humanity with a flesh and bone but the divine heart of the righteous Lord himself, the one who suffers common grief with people but is not blinded by worldly conditioning!

I like these depictions of angels most all. Angels are supposed to be strong warriors of God, not cute little children. Also, the middle one looks a bit like Kevin Sorbo when he played Herculese in the 90's TV series.

Yay! No fat babies! Now these are creatures that would need to tell me not to be afraid! I think I still would have to change my loin cloth after a experience like this.

That is what real angels could look like.
Think about it,every time an angel came to someone in the scriptures they said"Fear not."

The artwork is stunning and I love how you dipicted the angels as shinning heavenly warriors. It must take you days to do these.

I like the detail and I especially like the bottom part of the picture with the shepherds, it just looks nice. I also love how you depicted the angels like this, which is how I veiw them: mighty warriors of God. Do you believe in guardian angels? I do, so I couldn't imagine them as female angels(I'm sure there are girls too) sitting on clouds, playing harps and lyres...even though that's nice too

In Zechariah 5:5-11 we are introduced to femal Angels.
I just found this a couple of weeks ago, I always thought there were but had never heard of it in the Bible before this
Just thought you would like to know.

Oh thankyou very much! I've never heard female angels mentioned so I thought(and still think) the world has a warped veiw of heaven. Most people say it'll be more fun in hell because they'd rather go there then listen to classical music for the rest of their lives. Boy are they in for a surprize....
Anyways, thanks a lot and thanks for caring enough to reply to me and tell me that^^

i dont think the scripture is talking about angels...
and anyways, scripture tells us that angels have no gender...
but, when looking at the known names of angels: Gabriel, Michael...
they seem to be masculine.
meh. either way...the gospel is more important
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know, but I believe that they do have genders because that's just the way I see them(I mean, yeah...maybe they appear more masculine or feminine or something).
Yep, totally right...the gospel is the only thing that matters and the little details are trivial
Cool quote^^
