Angel's Flight (Legion of Angels Book 8)

Product Information

It is important to know the answers to these questions, because the answers reveal the full might that was available to Jesus had He requested supernatural help in the Garden of Gethsemane. Actually, when we take into account the power that was already demonstrated in the Garden and then add the potential assistance and impact of twelve legions of angels, it becomes obvious that there was no human force on earth strong enough to take Jesus against His will. The only way He was going to be taken was if He allowed Himself to be taken! This is why He later told Pilate, “…Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above…” (John 19:11). Or do you think that I cannot appeal to My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels? Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and He shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?” (Matthew26:53). The interaction between the characters is so shallow, if it were a pool I'd feel comfortable laying my baby in it... Face down. Not that I have a baby, but you know, my future baby.

Or do you suppose I cannot entreat my Father and He would instantly send to my help more than twelve legions of angels? How much strength do you think one angel possesses? Today I’d like for us to consider the full impact of Jesus’ words in Matthew 26:53, where He said, “Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?”Ella Summers presents Books 1-4 in the Legions of Angels series: Vampire's Kiss, Witch's Cauldron, Siren's Song, and Dragon's Storm. The Thrones are a class of angels mentioned by the Apostle Paul in Colossians 1:16. This verse says, "For in Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through Him and for Him." The Thrones are the angels of humility, peace and submission. If the lower Choir of Angels need to access God, they would have to do that through the Thrones. Dominions

Leda Pierce is working as a paranormal bounty hunter on the Frontier, the dividing line between human civilization and the plains of monsters. Life is simple and the pay modest, but at least she has her family. That is, until a vampire hunt goes wrong and her brother goes missing, captured by the dark angels of hell. But the gods’ gifts of magic come at a price. Leda can already feel the Nectar changing her, making her less human—and so is her budding romance with the angel Nero. Sip by sip, kiss by kiss, the change is taking hold of her.

Thinkest thou that I cannot ask my Father, and he will give me presently more than twelve legions of angels?

Let’s begin with our first question: What is a “legion”? The word “legion” is a military term that was taken from the Roman army. A legion denoted a group of at least 6,000 Roman soldiers, although the total number could be higher. This means that anytime we read about a legion of anything, we can know it always refers to at least 6,000 of something. A few years before this event, Jesus already had angels minister to him in his time of greatest trial to that point, after his wilderness trial with the devil. This whole new world Ella has created is amazing and the visuals the reader can construct from her descriptions are impressive. The plot may seem straightforward but be warned, there are unexpected twists and turns, and in fact is the whole thing is a slow burner setting the reader up for the next book. I also didn't like how all everyone cared or talked about was how hot the hero was, or how bada** he is, and yet the first time he has a chance to prove it, he literally gets captured and tortured. Weak. Same goes for the heroine though. She was a bounty hunter but loses against everyone in hand to hand combat.
