Guardian Angels Are NOT What You Think | Andrew Henry

Almost everyone has heard the comforting idea: somewhere nearby, a guardian angel is watching over you. But where did that belief actually come from? In this livestream, Derek Lambert of MythVision Podcast is joined by Andrew Henry from Religion for Breakfast to explore the real history of guardian angels. We’ll look at what the Bible does and does not say about personal angels, how Jewish angelology developed during the Second Temple period, and how older ideas about divine messengers, protective spirits, daimons, and heavenly intermediaries helped shape one of Christianity’s most beloved beliefs. From Tobit and the Dead Sea Scrolls to early Christian speculation and later angelic hierarchies, this conversation asks a simple question with a surprising answer: Did Christianity invent guardian angels, or inherit them? Join us as we uncover the history behind the angel on your shoulder. ============================ FIND ALL LINKS HERE 👉 https://linktr.ee/mythvision ============================ RECOMMENDED ONLINE COURSES HERE 👉👉 Checkout MVP Courses to find new and upcoming online courses: https://mvp-courses.com/ Sign up for Dr. James Tabor’s Course, “The Quest for the Historical Paul: Apostle or Apostate?” - - https://mythvisionpodcast.com/histori...
