Sometimes the mistake modern people make, as they seek to foster a particular agenda, is to interpret symbolic drawings in a literal way. For instance winged angels are middle ages, artistic paintings that are not based on Bible accounts at all. As people who spoke with angels were often unaware of who they were at first. The symbolic beasts and visions of the Prophet Daniel and Ezekiel had spiritual meanings and then there's the book of revelation. Not only the Biblical accounts but also other ancient writings can be interpreted literally by modern readers, when those who wrote them were interpreting spiritual truths about the subjects, particular abilities (dragons, serpents etc).
Jesus after his resurrection could pass through walls and appeared near those he wished to speak with. He also ate with the disiples and could be felt. After 40 days he ascended out of their sight. The angels standing in the crowd at the time, informed the witnesses present, that the same Jesus would return in like manner. Jesus though he was born of a woman was also the Holy spirit in human form. Thats why true Christians must be also born again of the Holy Spirit to enter the kingdom of God. Yes, the Holy Spirit is alien to this current evil world and it certainly is not from here. If allowed it can still influence peoples lives though. Unfortunately the literal parts of the Bible are taken to be symbolic and the symbolic parts are often taken literally. Alot of these ideas come from 'Chariots of the gods' a movie and book I also saw in the 70s. Those ideas l thought were very convincing arguments up until the day I recieved the Holy Spirit and spoke in tongues
(or was born again).
