I probably drove my guardian angel crazy years ago. I'm high maintenance.
Same my guy, my poor guardian angel worked many many many extra shifts 😂
But im extremly thankful for it :)
wow i didnt know you could pray to other people's guardian angels! im gonna start doing this
"When God created the celestial hosts--seraphim, cherubim, thrones, dominions, principalities, powers, archangels and angels--He established that the angels must be in an uninterrupted relationship with mankind. Among those angels, the guardian angels are the most kind and loving because they begin their mission in the world by taking care of children. They are sweet like children; they are gentle like children; and they are vulnerable and shy, just like children." Excerpt from foreword of Akathist to the Guardian Angel by George Calciu.
Mother Alexandra wrote a book called "The Holy Angels", and I highly recommend it if the angels interest you.
She founded the monastery near my home. Incredible person
Got the book on my shelf but haven’t been able to open it yet!!
Our Priest's wife will be starting a book study on that in just a few weeks. I intend to join in!
Our simple little math and logic means nothing to these infinite beings.
They’re still created beings tbf
I am not sure if I would call them infinite, tbh.
@@j.s0nYes but they are infinite and sinless,
@@calebmartinez1529 As far as I understand, there are two kinds of infinite - one is an infinite amount of time and one is infinite by virtue of being beyond time. God's eternity is the only example of the latter. Angels and any created souls that live forever could be said to be infinite but not like God.
4:49 For the first 3 ranks these are known from the Old Testament although wheels are renamed as thrones. For the lower ones we also have records in the Bible for Principalities , Archangels and angels as names or ranks. For the rest probably some church tradition but is unknown. Also as an interesting thing some angels may have more than one rank so is possible that not all ranks are fixed. We do not know
Dang was hoping to play a game of charades
How do you know if you've chased off your Guardian Angel? If so, is it possible to for them to come back to you?
I wouldn't count on it being very likely. Angels are creatures of perfection who though the will of God are stronger than whatever evil humans conjure up. Remember St Michael defeated the devil and his hosts
Think of the absolute depths of depravity some people have gotten into. I can only guess but I’d imagine it would take a whole lot.
At baptism we are reborn as new creatures. I don't know if that means we receive a new one or are restored the one who was appointed to me at birth though. I will be asking my priest about this as I am curious
Hi Boki. You are amazing! I love your videos. This is David
Thanks for the video. God bless you.
When I was a child, I had recurring dreams of an Angel coming to me. I grew up Protestant so I never thought anything of it, but now I’m really curious if it was really my Angel
The idea that you can name your guardian angel or know their name is actually generally rejected by Catholic thought and standard practice.
The idea of naming them or knowing their name seems to have been a trend in the 60s/70s and onward and is slowly being set aright when it is found, at least in my experience.
This might be a dumb question but does everyone have a guardian angel or are they assigned to us at baptism? In that context would it make sense to ask someone else's guardian angel to pray for them if the person is not Orthodox?
No, only Baptized Orthodox Christians have Guardian angels, however you can still ask a non-guardian angel to pray for non Orthodox people.
Everyone has guardian angels. Regaurdless of what dogma says. It's the one thing i'll never agree on with the oc.
I know Catholics say that everyone has a Guardian Angel from the moment of conception, I know one writer has said that even the anti-Christ will have a Guardian Angel. God wants us all to be saved (surely that requires some angelic assistance) and Jesus talks on the little children (not Baptised) having their Angels in the presence of God. I think the Orthodox would argue that in Baptism, the relationship with a particular angel is formalised, in the same way you get assigned Godparents. It is NOT a contract, but it is a covenant. So saying we only have an angel from the moment of Baptism is true but it does no presuppose the lack of angelic protection of all people. Therefore I personally pray to the angels who protect people I know irrespective of whether they are Orthodox or not.
From what I understand (and take what I say with a grain of salt as I am a lowly catechumen and have no authority on this matter) when we are baptized we are a new creature. If all are born with a guardian angel, then my prediction is that if we lost our guardian angel due to our vile sins, then, perhaps by God's great mercy, we receive one or are restored one in baptism. That said, I am going to talk to my priest about this now as I am curious too.
It really depends on the person and the circumstance. But I believe it has to do with baptism and when the child was born
I saw the postman wear a St Nicholas cap this morning and I realized it's December 6th. I had got my other boots muddy on Sunday, just kicked them in the corner and completely forgot to clean them. So that's why St Nicholas didn't show up and bring me anything! I've been a bad girl, but I can clean them! SANTA! COME BAAACK!
Hey, could Santa be my guardian angel? Erm...nope? He's a saint, right. Just thought I'd ask.
HAPPY SAINT NICHOLAS DAY EVERYBODY ❤!
Happy feast day
I think they send the Holy Spirit to us not protect us in a physical sense. Just a thought.
Mine is La Virgen de Zapopan
Angel Literally means Messenger in both Hebrew and Greek.
Do you have more shelves above vigil lamp if yes at which height
God bless you
Is it true you must be baptized to have a guardian angel?
The whole concept of guardian angels is a bit foreign to me, I'm not orthodox but am a Christian, would I have one? Or is it special to the Orthodox church
Answered here!
I hope my guardian angel doesn’t have a sense of smell….💨
I have a question. I have an icon of Archangel Uriel and I was wondering, how can we know he is an Archangel or even that he exists if he is not mentioned in the scripture?
Uriel is in the Book of Enoch, found in the Ethiopian Orthodox Bible and in 2 Esdras in the Eastern Orthodox bible. He is also mentioned in various other ancient theological works. The short canon excludes mention of him.

Can you ask your guardian angel to pray for somebody else? And if somebody (my mother) is a Protestant who doesn’t believe in personal guardian angels, what would you recommend? Praying to their angel for them?
I think that's rather odd that she doesn't believe in guardian angels. Even when I was a Evangelical protestant we believed in guardian angels. Although we didn't have a focus on them, we just vaguely knew they existed.
@@reach483 Protestantism can be pretty odd, wouldn’t you say?
@@isaacsim Yes. Lots of debate within it from the beginning. If you haven't read Josiah Trenham's Rock and Sand: An Orthodox Appraisal of the Protestant Reformers and their teachings I'd recommend it.
There,s no Catholic prayer for knowing the name of your Guardian Angel. That belongs to Angelology, a New Age thingy...
I was raised Catholic. Your beliefs sound very much like Catholic beliefs. I have always been told that I have a guardian Angel. Angels have names. It is not important for us to know the guardian Angel at the level of knowing their name. They are not our friends. They do a job. There is nothing personal about what they do. Angels work for God the Father. They are not our employees or our friends. We cannot have a conversation with them. We can talk to them but it is not a two way conversation. They are there to make sure we can do what we are put here on this earth to do. Angels are a higher being than us. Superior in every way. I thank my guardian Angel for protecting me and keeping me alive and safe. This isn't necessary. It makes me feel better to thank them but Angels don't need our compliments. Angels have never sent me any messages or communicated with me that I know of. But, I know that the Angel is always there.
Wait I believe some saints such as padre pio talked to guardian angels and even to Jesus and Mary himself two way. So if you are saintly it is possible.
@@Vasudeva108. I have read the stories about Padre Pio. As far as we as individual Christians it does not matter if those stories are true or not. We can safely say that 99% of Christians have never had a two way conversation with an Angel. We are not equal to Angels. We are inferior beings. Angels are only around us by the Grace of God.
@@glenh4971 Amen. I wish I could.
Hi Bojan. You refer to your guardian angel as "him". I always assumed angels were female. I never knew you could have male angels.
I've never heard of an angel appearing as a woman in the Bible, or having a woman's name. I'm not sure they're either but they seem to appear as men.
Angels don't have genders the way we humans do.
Angels are genderless. It’s people who label them.
All's fine, it's just that Dionysius isn't a "Pseudo". Don't put too much faith in scholars. St John of Damascus, St Maximos the Confessor and St Gregory Palamas all regard the Corpus Areopagiricum as authentic. The hymnography also commemorates the historical Dionysius as identical with his "Pseudo" counterpart. And in his "Myriobiblion", St Photios lists a treatise by Theodore of Mopsuestia (4th century) in which he defends the authenticity of the Corpus. Apparently Theodore could time travel according to scholars lol
Btw, Dumitru Staniloe wrote a GREAT defense on the authenticity of the Corpus, and its easy to find on the internet
Will definitely check it out. So far the arguments I've seen against St. Dionysius' authorship seemed pretty convincing. :)
The work is wayyy too specific in addressing future controversies and makes neoplatonic references. Most scholars seem to attribute it to St Severus of Antioch, but I doubt it since his other works are not anonymous nor pseudonomical.
@@al4381 It's actually not. Fr Staniloe's paper is exactly about that.
Thanks for this comment
Catholics that have visions of guardian angels they are actually having demonic possessions
Wow how do you know this. Is this an opinion or fact. If it’s not true you have lied. Thank you.
