False Doctrine
This author twists the scriptures. He demotes Jesus Christ to an "angel" and elevates himself above the fundamental belief in the deity of Jesus Christ, and above the Christians who sincerely know the Lord Jesus Himself, and those of us who know that Jesus is God incarnate. God created mankind, not an angel.
The Bible is very clear that the angels are to serve man, as servants of God helping and observing mankind. Hebrews 1:13 and 14 says
But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
14. Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
Jesus is God in the flesh, God incarnate. He is not an angel, He is not a created being like the angels. Isaiah 9:6 says:
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Upon the deity of Jesus Christ and the future of those saved by the shedding of His blood and His resurrection rests the testimony of the Children of God and their salvation through Him.
God never told an angel to sit on His right side. That preeminence is only given to His Son, Jesus Christ. Mankind was created in the image of God, and the angels were not. Jesus is God and through Jesus we also are raised with Him, when we die to ourselves.
I believe whoever wrote this book, if it was indeed Timothy Alberino, is treading on that dangerous ground called Heresy. It is important to know one's Bible so as to not be lead astray by New Age doctrine, which for some strange yet obvious reason, seeks to strip Jesus of His deity.
Test the spirits and you will know. If anyone will not say that Jesus Christ is God incarnate, and that it is He that created all living things, including the angels, then he is not of God.
