Will Angels Escort Us To Heaven? (Response)

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "Diane asks "What about the parable in Luke 16:22 in which JESUS SAYS IN HIS OWN WORDS, "So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom." Don't you think that if Jesus himself alone were carrying the beggar to Abraham's Bosom, he would have said so in the parable? If Jesus says something in a parable, is it no less a true indication of what happens at death? I agree that angels accompany Jesus when a believer dies and is taken to Heaven, and I think that it is believable that angels may be carrying believers at Jesus' instruction. I can't visualize what the believer's soul might look like at death, but it must be tangible enough to be carried by angels."
