{The Dynamic Independence of Angels}[5th October 1987]

[Redbook4:97][19871005:0940]{The Dynamic Independence of Angels}[5th October 1987]

19871005.0940

So once again,* what are Angels? – not in terms of how they are formed, or of how they might appear, but in the objective terms of Belief and Knowledge** (so far as is possible): that is to say, in terms of the categories of Direct Knowledge arising within our own minds about whose existence we are able to be absolutely certain. I think that Angels – being, on the highest plane***[,] Spirits of God inspiring Souls – and on the Spiritual plane, pure Light clothed in more or less opaque**** forms – come to us as Dynamically Independent Qualities having the Quality of Absolute Truth within our own minds.

The Dynamic Independence is independence from us,# not from God: it is the Spirit of God, which moves them. The Dynamic Independence is the Spirit: the Quality is the Soul. The Quality of Absolute Truth relates to our perception, of course, and perhaps manifests the Mastery of Christ over the Angels (“Angels” is a slightly less inaccurate description than “Spirits”, as it allows for the essential differentiating Soul: and, yes, Angels are Messengers or Agents now.#*
