Even angels long to look into these things Concerning salvation and the grace that Christ brings Evil angels were not given the chance to repent When Satan’s rebellion led to their banishment To their great surprise a blood sacrifice was made That day in the garden when Adam disobeyed A fig leaf would not do so an animal was slain To cover their sin and God’s forgiveness obtain Angels marvel to see men living in such pain Choosing to serve God in the darkest domain Overcoming by faith in the blood the Lamb paid In testimony and action God’s Word they obeyed Unlike the angels, men have the chance to repent Hell is reserved for the wicked and disobedient Choose salvation and the mercy that Christ brings Even angels long to look into these things Debbie Furey March 27, 2022 1 Peter 1:10-12 – “Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who spoke of the grace that was to come to you, searched intently and with the greatest care, 11 trying to find out the time and circumstances to which the Spirit of Christ in them was pointing when he predicted the sufferings of the Messiah and the glories that would follow. 12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you, when they spoke of the things that have now been told you by those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even angels long to look into these things.” Revelation 12:11 – “They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.” 1 Peter 1 If even the angels long to look into the salvation that Christ brings, shouldn’t the men on earth long to look into those things? When angels disobeyed in the bible, they did not have the chance to repent. For men living in the darkness of this present time, we can choose the ways of God and live according to His Word. When we fall short of what is written there, we have the chance to repent and be forgiven by God. If you don’t know about this, you need to look into these things! It will matter for all of eternity.
