What are fallen angels? : History and list

Within all religions there are several supernatural species, as well as angels, to which we have some affection or devotion, since through them we can feel the presence of our God and his glory. However, today we will talk about those who decided not to follow in the footsteps of their creator and why they were banished from the heavenly world, the so-called fallen angels.

Fallen angels

What are fallen angels? Well, in the Catholic religion, God, just before creating Adam and Eve, created a series of angels that would help him reflect his love and principles to all beings, not only earthly, but also those of the heavenly kingdom.

Each of them had an important mission to fulfill, however, some of them became rebellious and began to commit sins that caused God to expel them from heaven.

Once these angels were expelled, they were called ” fallen angels from heaven” since they would no longer be welcome in the house of God nor will they enjoy the love and peace that reigns there.

Once free and without complying with any rule of the creator, they decided to become “demons” that disrupt the peace and stability of human beings on earth, tempting them to fall into any or all of the deadly sins.

These new demons enjoyed and enjoyed the evil they caused, especially to those souls that were far from God, and those who were innocent and easy to make them fall into their traps and lies. The demons promised these people a life full of success, luxury and enjoyment if they let themselves be carried away by their thoughts.

 The demons and the deadly sins

Let us remember that these capital sins are transmitted by these  fallen angels turned into demons and that they are still a current and latent temptation within our world, which we must eradicate and not allow them in our lives.

the deadly sins

Greed: Greed is one of the most common sins that exists within the human race.

It is based on the highest expression of selfishness, where people who have this sin blind themselves to power by wanting to have thousands of material goods just for themselves, without sharing them with someone else.

Envy: This sin can be applied not only to desire the material goods of another person, but also to desire their work life and even family and sentimental life.

In addition to being falsely happy for the achievements of the other when in reality he wishes with much malice that the joy and glory of the other person would end. Some of the angels fallen from heaven were full of envy towards God.

Lust: It is based on the thought of an obsessive and insane person of a sexual nature, with people close to their family circle or even with people they do not know.

Most of the fallen angels  were banished from heaven for having these sinful thoughts.

Pride: It lies in that desire to feel superior to others, believing oneself better and humiliating others. Something very similar to what happened to some of the fallen angels , who believed they were a god with the gifts that the creator gave them.

Gluttony: A sin that causes people to abuse their abilities, filling themselves with cravings and the desire to eat excessively without leaving food for others.

“Son of man, sing an elegy on the king of Tyre. You will tell him:  Thus says the Lord: You were the seal of a fantastic work, full of beauty and wisdom. In Eden you were, in the garden of God.

All sorts of precious stones formed your mantle: ruby, topaz, diamond, onyx stone, jasper, sapphire, malachite, polished stones, emerald; The earrings and pendants you wore were wrought in gold, adorned from the day of your creation.

Little protector with spread wings I had made you, you were on the holy mountain of your creator, you walked between stones of fire. You were perfect and excellent in your conduct from the day of your creation, until the day iniquity was found in you. Due to the breadth of your trade, your interior has been filled with violence, evil, and you have sinned.

And I have expelled you from the mountain of God, and I have eliminated you, little protector, from the midst of the stones of fire. Your heart has paid for your beauty, you have corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor.

I have thrown you to the ground, I have shown you as a spectacle to kings. By the multitude of your faults for the immorality of your trade, you have profaned your sanctuaries. And I have taken from you the fire that has devoured you; I have reduced you to ashes on the ground, in the eyes of all who looked at you. All the peoples who knew you are in awe of you. You are an object of fear, sadness and you have disappeared forever.»
