Things Into Which Angels Long to Look

We have such a precious gift in the salvation given to us by our Lord. This is a gift about which the great prophets spoke of, at their own ridicule and rejection and peril. A gift that they knew would be so great, so merciful. This is a gift that even the angels wanted to know about...and it has been given to us! ...to any of us who believe Him and believe in Him. So, let's remember just how special we are to be His! We have been so blessed with the most unimaginable gift- into which the angles long to look...

Concerning this salvation, the prophets who prophesied of the grace that was to be yours made careful search and inquiry, inquiring about the person or time that the Spirit of Christ within them them indicated when it testified in advance to the sufferings destined for Christ and the subsequent glory. It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in regard to the things that have now been announced to you through those who brought you good news by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven- things into which angels long to look!
-1 Peter 1:10-12
