Father Dan Reehil

We don't know.

It's not a science.

And there's no scriptural definition of how many, but we know Lucifer fell for sure.

That's written in the Bible.

And he took, it's in Revelation says, he took a third of the stars with him.

And these luminaries we assume to be the angels.

Incredibly intelligent, incredibly powerful beings, but they don't have bodies, pure spirit, just like God.

Then he creates all of us.

And we're kind of a hybrid because we're not pure matter, but we're not pure spirit.

We are both matter and spirit.

So we're unique in that way, in the way nothing else in creation is like us.

And as I mentioned, he kind of, if you think about all God did for us, he made us out of his love for us.

So just for that reason alone, we kind of owe him something.

I mean, he made me.

If you go and you create a vase, you make this vase and put it on a shelf, like if the vase had a personality, we'd have to say thank you for making me.

But, you know, it's a vase.

It doesn't know what to do.

It has no mind.

But we know that we were made by something.

So just for that purpose alone, we owe him a debt.
