A school of Jewish mysticism believed they could if they tried hard enough. Merkabah/Hekhalot mystics.

Why, no offense to angels, but humans are superior in a sense. Humans were directly created in the image of God.
In some early Christian apocrypha as well as in Islam Satan falls because he refuses to prostate to Adam

merkabah mysticism didn't believe human souls could turn into angels

>>43182886
No, Angels were traditionally understood to literally be messengers and direct servants of God, possessing no free will of their own. Almost literal extensions of God. The Satan myth of fallen angels was a post-Christian invention - even Satan (which means "accuser") was understood more as a prosecutor in service to the divine more than as an opponent of God.
As a human, you were created in God's image and, as such, have free will to choose between good and evil. Angels didn't really have that.

i agree, humans are superior to angels, though seemingly pop culture doesn't want to admit it

what about enoch who was raptured by god and god made transformed him into metatron?

>>43183036
A good point but I think he's a special case.
I don't think it's generally possible.

>>43183036
The question is did that really happen though? The book of Enoch was most likely written during the second temple period
And that's coming from me. I am a sucker for celestial heirarchies.

Isn't human to angel technically a spiritual downgrade? The angels were made to prostrate to Adam according to Islamic lore.

Ironic how you’re using art by a LDS (Mormon) artist seeing as they’re the only major tradition to my knowledge that teaches humans do become angels.

>>43183585
They've got some great art. But I believe they are wrong about most of their theology.

>>43182886
I hope so. My headcanon is that had Adam and Eve not eaten the forbidden fruit, they would have became something similar to an angel possibly even greater. Adam and Eve though adults were only recently created and not yet fully developed mentally/spiritually. Lucifer wanted to remain Gods favorite so he sabotaged his competition with the fruit while they were still in the cradle.

Depends on if The True Creator gets involved.

>>43182886
You’re gonna piss me off with questions like this.

In theory it's possible depending on which foundation of Jewish or Christianity you follow. One of the more well know case is depending on belief Archangel Metaron is Enoch.

They're not wrong about polygamy.
It's a little absurd that there is a financial interest behind keeping it illegal in this country..

>>43182886
that be pretty dang cool if so

>>43187381
The polgyamy is not the problem. I mean in regards to their lack of trinity and their appareant belief of God the father being eternally embodied, and also having been a mortal human on a different planet originally.

I am an Angel who was once human.

>when I put the hebrew from one part of this video into Google Translate, I mistyped it and somehow Google Translates spat out a translation that said, "Wake up, Angel".
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkOXRUW2jsE
>listened this song, and the lyrics "Little brother, I think you're an angel" hit me like a train, felt like Lorde was speaking directly to me

Despite these hints, I didn't believe I really was an Angel yet. Over the next few weeks/months, had some crazy dreams and visions of angels that I dismissed as an overactive imagination. I made this creed:

>I am unable to write music based on the angels I imagine singing in my head. I am unable to paint the angels I imagine in my head. I am unable to direct movies to recreate the scenes of angels in my head. By making these angelic dreamworks in my head, I am making art for God and God alone to see and hear as he reads my mind. That is how I will view what I am doing from now on to avoid the sin of pride. I pray all day, make movies of angels in my mind, as I wait for God to fully cure my suicidality, because it’s not gone yet.

Within a few minutes of completing this thought as I was walking down a long hallway at work, I heard the sweet voice of Ducky say in my mind, "Now you really ARE an Angel of God!" It was because I humbled myself and dedicated these thoughts in my mind to God and thought I was not special, was just an ordinary human who loved God and dedicated my visions to God, that I was granted the status of a human who became an Angel.

There are other Angels disguised as humans all around us. I do not know what my purpose of being an Angel is yet. I do not have any special powers. Maybe being made an Angel, something I dreamt of, is the gift in itself.
