Gabriel (Far from Grace)

Growing up in a Christian family and ‘community’ (or so to speak) I know the Bible ALMOST inside out. *Gabriel is one of the Arc Angels (The other two Arc Angels are Michael and Raphael.) The name means God is my might or man of God. (quoted from Wikipedia, which is true) Honestly, through out the whole movie, I felt a little disturb when I saw how Gabriel was portrayed. (note: had I knew that the movie was going to be like this, I would have opt not to watch it.) The movie started with Gabriel dropping down onto this sinful world, Earth. His mission? Fight to bring light back to purgatory - a place where darkness rules - and save the souls of the city's inhabitants. Firstly, God need not send any angels down to earth and transform as humankind to fight the evil. Secondly, are sacred servants of God, why is Gabriel fucking the other female human/angel at the end of the angels movie? (Btw, angels do not have a gender, they are neither male nor female.) At the end of the movie, he killed innocent people and finally himself. This is another thing that is forbidden. It is said in the bible that NO one shall have the authority to take their own life or others.
