Humans have spirits too?
If angels are spirits and fire only, how did they mate with women?
"According to rabbinical Judaism, the angels have no bodies, but are eternally living creatures created out of fire and occasionally appear in Midrashim as competition with humans. Heavenly beings, strictly following the laws of God, become jealous of God's affection for man. "
"They are immortal beings. As the Bible attests, they appear to humans as apparitions with a human form. Since the 4th century, nine choirs or types of angels ... " https://catholicstraightanswers.com/what-are-angels/

1 Timothy 6:16
Easy-to-Read Version
16 God is the only one who never dies. He lives in light so bright that people cannot go near it. No one has ever seen him; no one is able to see him. All honor and power belong to him forever. Amen.
1 Timothy 6:16
King James Version
16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
Someone in this thread said that only God is immortal.

God is a consuming fire. Angels are made out of fire. The human spirit is a breath from God. It is not that God is not powerful enough that he cannot speak an immortal spirit out of existence. He created those beings that way which is a part of him who is indestructible. So He will cut them off from Himself forever through the lake of fire.
Wrong.
Jesus said spirits have no flesh and bones. The angels can appear in human or animal form. Search about cherubim, seraphim and archangels. Your annihilation doctrine is now debunked. Satan cannot cease to exist because he is a spirit with no body to become ashes.
But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
