The Angels and Us How Much Alike?

• 1 Peter 110-12 Angels see our salvation
• 2 sprinkled by his blood angels have never
  known cleansing
• 3- we are given a new birth where Angels can
  never know freshness of being born again
• 3- great mercy and angels have never needed
  mercy
• 4- we have inheritance thats being kept in
  heaven for us, Angels already know whats theirs
  
• 3- we have a living hope and in verse 7 our
  faith will result in praise, glory, and honor
  when Jesus Christ is revealed, angels have no
  need of hope since Christs glory is already a
  present reality to them
• 8- though we have not seen him, we love him,
  the angels do see Jesus and love him, but which
  is more precious? Love from seeing him or love
  from him who havent seen him yet?
• 8- even though we do not see him now, we believe
  in him. We have no choice but to walk by faith,
  angels have no need of faith they believe by
  sight.
• 8- were filled w/ an inexpressible and glorious
  joy which angels know but they know from being
  at his throne
• 6 while on earth, we must endure all kinds of
  trials and they cause us grief. As far as we
  know, angels lose no loved ones, or experience
  trials of personal grief and loss.
• 9- says we rejoice for we are receiving the goal
  of our faith, the salvation of our souls. No
  wonder Peter adds the next line about angels
  wanting to explore this salvation inside-out.
