If I have a desire to preach the gospel I am considered a messenger .Like any apostle. "sent one" Abel the first and first recorded martyr.You're no angel, Garee.
Most of the time the word means "angel." A spirit-being.
So you found a scripture where "strangers" refers to people. That does not mean every occurrence of "stranger" refers to people.
Cain stayed a stranger to the promises of God .
All of the time messenger means messenger, a spirit being clothed in flesh. How beautiful are their feet .Like wings of a dove
Strangers is what we were before purchased by the Holy Spirit .A person must be born again
The word strangers as foreigners as a metaphor is used 198 times. It is used to represent all who come into the house of God the church . Jew or Gentile.
Obadiah 1:11In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreignersentered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them.
Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Genesis 15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
What do you think the word represents?
