The Meaning of Angelica Regime

What is Angelica Regime?


The meaning of an Angelica Regime comes from the idea that there is a regime or force of angels surrounding us everyday. The Latin root regime can be defined to mean a system that confers authority. The word regime is used to describe persistent and organized cooperation among a community, which has a set of shared objectives, expectations and intentions.
In the Angelica Regime the community is one of angels: a force sent to earth by God for a multitude of purposes, including supporting God’s miracles, conveying God’s messages, and protecting God’s citizens.

While there is no mention to the number of angels in God’s regime, Hebrews 12:22 tells us that they are innumerable, and described in the scriptures as being able to appear to man in a number of physical forms, including a ball of fire, a flash of light, and a winged messenger.
So why would such a powerful being appear to us simple humans in everyday life? Although described in Psalms 103:20 as “Mighty One,” angels are not all-powerful. The scriptures tell us that only God is omnipotent, and has infinite power. Angels receive their abilities from God, and are able to work only through him. According to the book of Jude, angels require assistance from the Lord when they are in conflict.

Although the belief in angels cannot be traced back to anyone specific time or religion, historical studies indicate that the first recognition of angels or celestial beings came from a belief in Animism. The term animism is derived from the Latin word anemia meaning breath or soul. The belief of animism is probably one of man's oldest beliefs, with its origin most likely dating to the Paleolithic age. From its earliest beginnings it was a believed that a soul or spirit existed in every object, even if it was inanimate. Such spirits became known as fairies, elves, divas, and spirits of nature and elements.

Although the religion of Animism was founded in prehistoric philosophies, it has to this day developed a following and still survives in various sectors of western civilization.
It is argued that the belief of Animism sparked the first acknowledgement of angels. As societies developed a greater need to feel a strong presence of a higher being to watch over and protect them, they started to turn to gods, goddesses, ancestors, and great spiritual entities. Like the modern spirit of angels, these spiritual entities were charged to maintain harmony in the universe and to convey messages between heaven and earth. In the polytheistic religions, such as those of the ancient Greeks, the people worshiped these spirits and relied on them for security.

The Greeks also believed that there were guardian spirits assigned to watch over each of us. The Roman’s called them their geniuses. Angels as we acknowledge them in western Christian society, however, had their origins in the ancient Persian religion of Zoroastrianism during the Persian empires of 559 BC to 651 AC. Zoroastrianism was one of the most influential and powerful religions during the time of Jesus Christ. Although still practiced today, Christianity is still notorious for sparking our modern beliefs in angels. Christianity embraced the belief in angels like no religion before it––mostly due to the combination of historical belief and the support that the teachings of Christ gave to their existence.

Christianity was the first religion to openly acknowledge angels. For many this acknowledgement confirmed what centuries before had assumed. When Christ spoke of the angels by name, the belief in angels went from philosophy to fact. Still Christianity is not the only modern religion to embrace the belief in angels. In fact Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam all have their angels and angelic hierarchy.

Angels in this regime however, may be sent to communicate with us in an effort to help us through a trying time. They are messengers of the Lord, and appear to us in our times of need. It is this protective and communicative nature of the angels, which make them such a forceful regime. It is this same nature however, that often tests our faith and beliefs when confronted with the question; Do Angels Truly Exist?

For many it is a question of faith, for others one of science. But for those who have studied the Angelica Regime, it is a question that can only be answered through the miracles and messages that angels provided to those here on earth. In a time when we are living in a world at war over religions, it is often hard to realize that almost every religion recognizes the existence of spiritual beings that perform miracles. Yet angels have become popular culture, represented not by their works but rather by pendants, sculptures, ceramics, and heirlooms holding sentimental value over religious affiliation.

We live in a society, which has been saturated with trials and tribulations; some social and some political. Everyday we are influenced by the stresses of relationships, family, education, employment and government, not to mention, concerns over domestic and international safety. It is no wonder then, that our popular culture, is to rely on such items as a source of inspiration or a symbol of goodwill, but the angels that surround us everyday are more then figurines––they are miraculous workers of God that have touched many loves through the years, some through simple acts of guidance, others through unexplainable and sometimes unimaginable intervention.
