talking about angels

One third of the angels followed Lucifer.
They thought they were going up, but down they went.
The angels in heaven must still remember that strange
event in heaven. How could it happen?
Is there any guarantee that it could never happen again?
Do angels still change sides, from God to Satan?
Think about it.
If Satan could be forgiven, we would loose all our absolutes.
The fall of Satan happened in Eternity, before his career in
time. In Eternity you don’t have another chance. Those
moments don’t come back. Every moment is final and
irreversible. Redemption takes places on the Earth,
not in Heaven.
For this same reason angels cannot disagree with God.
Their time of choice has passed. They are already in
heaven enjoying their uninterrupted intimacy with God.
Now it is man’s turn.
God is looking for true worshippers who worship him
in spirit and truth. John 4:23
Man’s worship has a different quality than the never
ceasing worship of the angels.
In a way the whole mankind is in the same place where
angels were at the moment when Satan proclaimed his
independency of God.
How will we respond?
Are we deceived to think that we are going up, when
the bottomless pit is actually right behind the corner.
