Pronunciation: RAM-tel
His Place Among the Fallen Watchers
Third to Semihazah. Bound to the element of coal — “the burning stones of God.” His evil teaching: loneliness.
What He Was Meant to Be
Ramtel’s original definition was “the feeling of gentle warmth of the Father’s personal nearness” — protecting against loneliness, cold, and insecurity, bringing well-being and comfort. Had he kept it, he would have been a significant help to the Father, respecting man’s agency the way the Father first covered the face of the deep with darkness.
What He Chose Instead
Ramtel chose the definition that “you were made for the world and are just one of many and are expendable.” He now supports other fallen watchers, such as electricity and steel, and leads those who take human dignity away — children of coal miners losing their fathers’ love young, as their fathers’ health is treated as expendable. Where smoke could have carried the Father’s presence, Ramtel’s smoke is instead a major pollutant.
Not Fallen for Being Used, But for Delighting in It
The Lord explained to Melchizedek that Ramtel, or coal, “is not fallen because it is used for evil, but because it delights to be used to further the influence of sin.”
What He Teaches
Ramtel teaches the taking of slaves and cruel oversight. He is master of slave owners, prostitutes, and rapists; master of air pollution and polluted human spirits — the enemy of friendship. Asbestos is counted a follower of his.
The Rise of Industry
In a vision spanning church history from ancient apostasy through the Restoration and beyond, Achee saw the kingdom of Semihazah grow unchecked into a later age — where Ramtel, “the burning stones of Semihazah,” began to conquer the fields of those who sowed their seed by hand and by horse, his pollution rising like smoke as coal-fired machinery overtook the labor that had worked those same fields for generations before it.
