Angel of Death help

if he exsists which i suppose we can be certain if he does or not i dont think he comes after you if you cheat death. my friend was in a car crash where this truck had rolled over, half the car was crushed. he was fine.he got out of the car with a few sratches. as soon as he got out the truck moved and crushed the rest of the car.he wouldnt have died if he stayed in the car so i suppose you could say he cheated death. the angel of death never came after him. he shouldve died but he survived. i dont know if we will ever know all the forces that influence life and death (if there are any).

anyway hope you find the answers you are looking for.

To my knowledge Michael once upheld the post of angel of death until Azreal came to the mantle. (if you have any works that dispute this I would be eager to read them.)

Everything and everyone whom lives has a time to die. We all owe a death, and there is no getting out of it. Death isnt to be feared, it is one of the greatest changes we can experiance. We become totally at one with what we only taste when dreaming or astral traveling, going on to the next stages of existance following purpose.

One does not cheat death, if we manage to get ourselves out of a potentially lethal situation (warzones, hostage situations, animal attacks ect) we are not cheating anything or anyone, it is simple survival.

Thanks all so much x
But IceWarlock, your friend wouldn't have cheated death because he never knew it was coming.

You cheat death by having a sign that you are going to be involved in an accident etc.

But, I thought that the angel of death would come after you because in mythology, he has a book/scroll and he writes all thats born, and erases all thats next to die. If you cheat death, then you are screwing up his plans because he cannout move onto the next person untill the one on top of the list has died, right? So, I'm still a bit confused :S xx

I don't think anyone can cheat death, but we die and come back with lessons learned from dying. I died twice last year and came back from both with more knowledge then I had before. It did take me awhile to remember anything I had known before this happen. I did suffer memory loss, but when it did come back I knew more then I ever had.

Cheating death isn't really cheating it. It isn't like final fantasy where you literally cheat it then death comes after you.

When it is your time to go, you will go, whether you like it or not.

Obviously, it wasn't his friend's time to go.

Also, being able to see ahead of yourself and see possible ways you could die and avoiding them isn't really cheating death either.

I avoid taking electronics in the shower, is that cheating death?
I avoid downed powerlines, is that cheating death?
I avoid swimming alone, is that cheating death?

Honestly, avoiding stuff is common sense or being able to see possibilities. It is not cheating death.

Thanks Asphodelos, but I mean, if you have a premonition, and you cheat it, like on final destination and charmed. Could that happen, because your messing with death's list aren't you?

Death doesn't work in the manner it is portrayed in movies. On occasion hollywood includes bits of truths, but not on every occasion.

Was once told by someone that seeing your own death only matters if you continue on the same path you were on when you had the premonition.

If you deviate from that path, the future changes and thus you "escaped" that death.

But I have also been told if you "cheat" death once, you will die in the timeframe you were meant to by other means.

Asrael...You seem to know quiet allot of him...and even named your self after him?

I agree on the fact you can not cheat death...but also do not really believe in death, your body /spirit vessel dies and rots and decays..but the spirit lives on to be reborn, continued circle of life, death, rebirth unless one reaches full enlightenment and awakening in this life thus learnt all the lessons needed to be learnt to stop the cycle, then one reside in peace at your souls true home.. be it heaven or hell for some.
