• Angels are organized into three distinct tiers or spheres based on their proximity to God and their functions.
• The first sphere consists of Seraphim, Cherubim, and Thrones, who act as heavenly rulers and direct servants of God.
• The second sphere contains Dominions, Virtues, and Powers, serving as heavenly rulers and regulators of natural laws and divine duties.
• The third sphere comprises Principalities, Archangels, and Angels, functioning as earthly messengers and direct protectors of humans.
• Satan and fallen angels were originally high-ranking angels before rebelling and being cast out of heaven.
• Humans possess free will and souls, distinguishing them from angels and granting them the potential to ascend spiritually.
