A Scriptural study of modern-day angelic encounters

There are all sorts of books about angels around these days, but A Rustle of Angels does what many of them do not - it examines modern-day angelic activity alongside Biblical reports of angelic events. Its focus remains steadfast on the Scriptures, not a New Age interpretation of modern-day "miracles." It even provides a set of guidelines that help you distinguish a true angelic visit from that of a minion of the devil - Lucifer has his own share of fallen angels who are not above tricking someone into feeling or doing something that is wrong. Many of the encounters reported in these pages are open to interpretation - there's no way to prove that these were not the products of luck, circumstance, or blind chance; what cannot be disputed, however, is the change these events evoked in the lives of those reporting what they truly to believe to be encounters with God's angels. While angels are primarily God's messengers, they have come to the aid of human beings in a number of ways - and the authors organize the bulk of the book under the different roles angels have played. We most often think in terms of guardian angels (and the authors contend that every individual does indeed have a guardian angel), messenger angels, and warrior angels, but angels can also play much more subtle roles in the lives of human beings. Many have found strength and encouragement from angels, and some have been blessed with a sense of peace at times in which they seemingly need no assistance from God. Even non-believers have encountered angels - sometimes leading to their own conversion and sometimes scaring them away from harming someone else. The authors also deal with the presence of angels among the dying and/or their grieving loved ones. From there, the authors address some of the common questions about angels - what they look like, if they really sing, etc. - and show why, on a Scriptural basis, some popular misconceptions are not true. Angels were created separately by God, and no human being who dies can become an angel, nor can we follow certain steps in order to contact our own guardian angel. Angels appear in different forms, to those who need to see them, always at the behest of God alone. Most importantly, the authors make the point that everything angels do is done solely for the glory of God. Indeed, that is the main criterion for determining whether an angelic encounter is a true event. Along with Billy Graham's book on angels, this is probably the second best book I have read on the subject. That is primarily because this book examines angels in Scriptural terms, unlike many recent books that contain all manner of modern speculations over these mysterious yet most glorious agents of God. A Rustle of Angels is an honest, enlightening, ultimately inspirational book that should really have a place on the shelves of anyone interested in the subject.

A Rustle of Angels is a spiritual uplifting!

Today there is a rise in the interest of Angels in our society. A Rustle of Angels invites you to explore the overwhelming evidence that heavenly beings are present with us and they bring reassurance of God's love and faithfulness. The book is filled with inspiring true stories about angels in real-life and scripture. The authors investigate the nature of angels and how their work of love and ministry give glory to God. It evaluates angel encounters with humans and their existence and what they do. They correlate the angel encounters with Biblical evidence and support from scripture teaching to look at how God's heavenly visitors have worked to intervene in human affairs throughout time. The purpose of this is so people can learn to discern what a real angel encounter is and what is not. For this reason the book is written from a Christian perspective and theologically explains the different teachings of what scriptures have to say about angel encounters with humans. Each and every one of the stories has been documented from the original people whose life has been touched by an angel. Interestingly, the people who shared their angel story are ordinary people who believe once your life has been touched by an angel it will never be the same. These people shared their story, so others would be blessed from them. For example, Marilynn and William Webber both shared their own profound account of a life saving and changing encounter with an angel. They believe like many of these people who have had an angel encounter that they were touched by God, and left with an extraordinary sense of peace and love. So, if you believe in angels or ever wondered about their existence you will truly enjoy reading this book. Clearly, the book strengthens one's faith and invites encouragement into one's life. It speaks to your heart and enlightens the soul and leaves the reader feeling good all over. On the other hand, these stories bring out more thoughts and wonder about divine intervention in the reader's life and leave the reader wondering if they could have ever had an angel encounter in their life and was never aware of it! Captivatingly, the book influences the thoughts of people who read it, no matter who they are, Christian, Jew, Moslem or someone who has no faith. Ultimately, the book leads people who read it to believe there are angels in the world.
