Created Beings
Theology reveals that, from the very top level, all beings exist in one of two different categories – Creator or created. From a theological standpoint, absolute truth is critically important not only to understand the origins or attributes of both and to formulate a correct theological view, but also to be able to have a correct frame of reference for ones own existence.
Classification of Created Beings
There are theological studies that focus on the creation of God; and all of Gods created beings, or the creations of God, can be further classified into various categories. Gods created beings are also theological categorized in order to classify their origins, definitions and attributes:
- Angelology – the study of angels
- Anthropology – the study of man, or humanity
- Demonology – the study of fallen angels
