## CRITICAL FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES
### The Nature of "Angel" (Messenger)
**ESSENTIAL UNDERSTANDING:**
The word "angel" means **"messenger"** and includes:
- ✅ Celestial beings (spirit messengers)
- ✅ Human messengers (prophets, apostles, ministers)
- ✅ Any agent sent with divine message or mission
**In Scripture:**
- When a prophet speaks Yahawah's word = he functions as "angel/messenger"
- When an apostle carries divine revelation = he is "angel/messenger"
- Celestial beings are "angels/messengers" of specific rank and function
**Therefore:** Not all "angels" are winged celestial beings. Many "angels" in Scripture are human messengers fulfilling divine assignments.

## PART 7: IMPORTANT NOTES AND CLARIFICATIONS
### 7.1 ON PROPHETS
**Any rank can be deemed as a prophet if the requirements of the gift are met according to the scriptures.**
**Prophets are ranked outside of the Government ranks but can hold Government rank.**
**Apostles are classified as Prophets and are the top Government ranks.**
This means:
- A Pastor can also be a Prophet
- A Teacher can also be a Prophet
- An Elder can also be a Prophet
- Any rank, when operating in prophetic gifting according to scriptural requirements, functions as a prophet
- However, Apostles are ALWAYS classified as Prophets by nature of their office
**Scripture References:**
- **Genesis 20:7** - "He is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee"
- **Exodus 7:1** - "I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet"
- **Numbers 12:6** - "If there be a prophet among you, I Yahawah will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream"
- **Deuteronomy 13:1-5** - Testing prophets and their prophecies
- **Deuteronomy 18:15, 18, 20, 22** - The prophet like unto Moses; true vs. false prophets
- **Deuteronomy 34:10** - "And there arose not a prophet since in Yasharahlah like unto Moses, whom Yahawah knew face to face"
---
### 7.2 ON OFFICERS AND CAPTAINS
**Officers of 50's to Officer of 1000 are assistants to Captains.**
**Captains of 50's – 11 Shield Generals are all Deacons.**
**12 Shield General to Senior Bishop/Senior Priest are Pastors.**
This establishes the military ranking structure within the ministry:
- **Deacons** (Rank 7) = Captains of the Ward = Captains of 50's through 11 Shield Generals
- **Pastors** (Rank 4) = 12 Shield General through Senior Bishop/Senior Priest
- **Officers** (Rank 8) = Officers of 50's, 100's, and 1000's who assist the Captains
---
### 7.3 WHY DO PRIESTS HOLD MILITARY RANKS?
**Scripture:** 2 Chronicles 34:13-14
The priests hold military ranks because:
1. **Spiritual warfare** requires military organization
2. **Defending the faith** demands disciplined structure
3. **Protecting the flock** necessitates warrior shepherds
4. **Advancing the kingdom** requires strategic deployment
5. **Maintaining order** needs chain of command
6. **Historical precedent** - Levites were organized militarily
The priests are not just spiritual leaders but also warriors in Yahawah's army, protecting His people and advancing His kingdom.
---
### 7.4 WERE THE SINGERS & MUSICIANS ONLY MEANT TO ENTERTAIN?
**NO.**
**Scripture:** Nehemiah 11:22; 12:45-46
Singers and musicians served vital spiritual functions:
- **Ministry to Yahawah** - "The singers were over the business of the house of Yahawah" (Nehemiah 11:22)
- **Keeping the ward of their Ahlah** - "Both the singers and the porters kept the ward of their Ahlah" (Nehemiah 12:45)
- **Prophesying with instruments** - 1 Chronicles 25:1-3
- **Leading worship** - Bringing people into Yahawah's presence
- **Spiritual warfare** - Defeating enemies through worship (2 Chronicles 20:21-22)
They were not entertainers but ministers serving Yahawah through music.
---
### 7.5 ARE WE SET UP TO "LORD OVER" ONE ANOTHER?
**NO.**
**But we are to follow orders and govern households correctly.**
**Scripture:** 1 Corinthians 4:6
The ranking structure is not about "lording over" people (Matthew 20:25-28) but about:
1. **Proper order** - Everything done decently and in order (1 Corinthians 14:40)
2. **Clear authority** - Knowing who has responsibility
3. **Efficient service** - Working together effectively
4. **Accountability** - Everyone accountable to someone
5. **Servant leadership** - Leaders serve those under them
6. **Household governance** - Properly managing families and assemblies
**Yahawashai's Model:**
"Whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many" (Matthew 20:26-28)
