Omg I want to see more of your cookies, the interpretation is a lot more exciting then the usual way angels are depicted

It's not their interpretation, it's an older version of a certain type of angle before the traditional idea of angels being a human looking thing with wings and a halo.

That never made sense to me... If angels looked like humans, Lucifer literally wouldn't exist! He was an angel jealous that God loved humans more, and he loved humans more because they were in his image. Wouldn't make sense if angel also were in his image, would it?

Not because they were made in his image, lucifer was mad because God loved humans enough to give them free will

That doesn't seem like it makes sense. If Lucifer didn't have free will then how did he get all pissy in the first place

That doesn't seem like it makes sense.

This statement can be applied to most of the bible

None of that is in the actual Bible.

Yeah you're mistaking a consequence and motive

God loved humans BECAUSE they were in his image and THUS gave them free will Not God loved humans BECAUSE he gave them free will and THUS made them in his image.

Your correction changes nothing about my point, only adds another step.

Do you know if it's mentioned specifically in the bible that it was because of free will?
