The perfect
man will certainly become the equal of the angels, as the Lord affirms; but He
will do so in the resurrection of the dead, and not in this present world. Even
then the perfect will not be angels, but equal to the angels (Lk 20:36). This
means that men cannot forsake their own nature, though like angels they can
become changeless through grace and released from all necessity, free in
everything they do, possessing ceaseless joy, love of God, and all that the eye
has not seen, and the ear has not heard. (I Cor 2:9).
St. Peter of Damaskos
