Lower than the angels.

Lower than the angels.   Needing to be Raised.

The sons of men...sons of HUMAN fathers...are as beasts.
The sons of men are born of a HUMAN spirit...a HUMAN nature.
God is Good.  God is Right.  Divine Nature.
The HUMAN nature is not God's Nature.  God's Spirit.
Therefore if a son of a HUMAN father would live without dying...death...he MUST..."BE" Reborn.
The sons of FLESH are not the sons of Spirit.  The sons born of HUMAN fathers live according to the flesh, the spirit of flesh...sin nature.

The angels and men are created things.  God is Creator...the ONLY Creator.
God Created angels and men.  The sons of HUMAN fathers are dead to God...they are dead souls even while they live on earth...they are dying bodies of death...empty souls void of Eternal Life.
The sons of men live but a TEMPORARY life...human life...sin-natured life dead to God, dead in Sin they die and not born again Alive IN Christ...able to depart the body of death as a LIVING SOUL born of the Spirit...a living soul because the Spirit of Eternal Life...lives, exists, rules within that soul.
God is CREATOR of angels and Adam [in Adam ALL the sons of men].

There are angels serving Divine Nature.  There are fallen angels...demons...evil spirits.
There are people born of HUMAN fathers....dead souls having TEMPORARY spirit [devil], a sin-nature, HUMAN nature and a TEMPORARY ....earthly body.   An UNREBORN SOUL does not have Eternal Life...Spirit of Eternal Life within it...and ceases to exist without a temporary body of death...temporary life.   The angels of God APPEAR ...are seen...when God allows them to be seen.
The Devil Satan and his "legions"...have to have a "home"...place...HUMAN being to enter, dwell in and WORK...think, speak and do evil.  ALL men born of HUMAN fathers have a HUMAN spirit, demon...devil...Sin nature...within them...that they serve...are slaves to...because of Adam...sinner, become Sin natured...captive of Sin...deceit...we ALL are dead souls, still-born SOULS in bodies of death.  And without the Quickening...the entrance into the dead soul...their is no ETERNAL Life in that soul.  And the unquickened soul shall cease to exist when its body of death dies.

Fear Him God the Father who alone can produce a LIVING SOUL.  Fear Him who can kill BOTH body and soul together...by withholding...True Life...True Spirit...Eternity from souls.  Adam was
created of earthly substance.  The Reborn souls are born of the Substance of God.  Sin natured sons of HUMAN fathers are not sons Reborn of Divine Nature...God, Spirit of Truth.  There is no LIVING Truth within the sons of HUMAN fathers.  God's Chosen SOULS...Elected for Rebirth/ that is...for SPIRITUAL Resurrection...first and later if the soul departs the body of death...Alive/ that is...IN Christ and not IN Sin...THEN that soul receives ...is covered with CELESTIAL body...AND is...Resurrected BOTH soul and body...a citizen of Paradise...Heaven.  Found among the Raptured.
Saints...the Reborn souls who continue to live according to Divine Nature until they depart the body of death...shall like Abraham the Living soul...son of God and Isaac and Jacob...sons of God...living
souls born of the Spirit of Life....and like Elijah and like Moses...shall be with our Father...souls filled with Eternal Life shall NEVER die, SEE death...even though our PHYSICAL bodies of death will.
SEE: 1Peter 3:18-4:1.  We are born of and have the SAME Father as Christ Jesus...and like Jesus shall die PHYSICALLY yet remain Alive SPIRITUALLY...living soul according to the Spirit of Eternal Life...POWER...in the SOUL.

IN Union...ONENESS...having the SAME Father, Spirit...Spirit of Resurrection in us...though we die physically...we Live...souls that die not because of Eternal Life, Father in us.  We live according to the SAME Spirit as Christ.  Like Christ we SOULS have Eternal Life within.  And God His Spirit... ENTERS our dead souls...souls asleep in Sin...souls dead to God.  Our souls asleep in the slumber of Sin...the living according to HUMAN nature, Sin nature...are SUDDENLY Awakened by the entrance of the Spirit of Light...the soul Quickened from being dead to being Alive...Alive to God.  God CAUSES the soul to hear Him...His Call...to EXPERIENCE the Presence of God...the being taken hold of ...captive to Him.  To experience...know Him His Power.  The lying spirit, spirit of deceit...the flesh...sin nature...will try to DECEIVE ...take captive the soul away from Righteousness to unrighteousness again.  But allow no spirit of deceit...lure the soul back into the slumber of Sin but instead remain Awake IN the Spirit of Righteousness, IN Right Mind, Right Spirit and freed from Sin BY Faith in God His Word and His Power.

Remain Alive and freed from Sin...BY FAITH...believing back .in Him...WHAT He alone has done, can do.  Remain freed from THE SIN OF Unbelief.  For WHAT you BELIEVE...will BE-done FOR you....Matthew 8:13.  WHEN the men saw WHAT happened to the men-with-demons...they ALL ...BEGGED Jesus to leave...depart from them...Matthew 9:34.  AFTER they saw Jesus REMOVE the evil spirits.   Matthew 13:58...BECAUSE they had NO Faith...rejected Him, 13:57...He Jesus could do Miracle...performed no miracle for them.  God IN the born again is GREATER than anything...all that wars against the SOUL...greater than devils, demons...fallen angels 
lying spirit...spirit of the FLESH. NONE shall fall, be lost...depart from Grace, but the sons of Human fathers...that love Sin...love the pleasures of flesh...and ALWAYS hate, reject...resist the Spirit...God...Truth.  The sons of unbelief.  Greater is the Spirit of Faith...present IN us...than the spirit of unbelief that separates the sons of HUMAN fathers from Almighty God.

Within the PHYSICAL WALLS earthly     churches...there are sons of unbelief who like the demons believe...but WHAT they believe is the doctrines of men born of HUMAN fathers...who have a spirit of pretense...hypocrisy...which keeps them captive and from knowing THE Living Truth...we receive from our Father...the Living Spirit.  God opens the SPIRITUAL eyes...to hear Him...the SPIRITUAL ears to hear Him His Voice...by SENDING the Spirit of Resurrection into the SOUL [first...then later the body].  And God opens and raises according to His Decision before we ever existed in this world below.  He cannot be deceived by the sons of HUMAN fathers who do good works by a spirit that pretends to be He Righteousness...by a spirit of hypocrisy pretending to be Good.  The sons of HUMAN fathers have a "religious spirit" that is not God.
