I love these beliefs in this branch of Christianity. I think angels and arch angels were once just like us, but have advanced in spirituality. We all can become angels. Other denominations of Christians have different beliefs about what angels are.

Mormons have some interesting beliefs. The more you look at their beliefs, the more interesting they become.
The Book of Mormon probably would be at the top of the list of channeled books if they had only written it in modern English.
