Kanzaki, looking like her heart would stop beating any second, said, “Angels cannot kill
humans without an order from God, and yet…have you even forgotten that, Power of
God? The number of souls to be judged during the ‘final judgment’ in the New
Testament is decided ahead of time. You would understand that killing people so
carelessly now would equate to bringing that judgment to ruin! You told us that!”
He felt like he’d heard that from Tsuchimikado before.
He said that God would come down to Earth at the end of the world, then decide on a
case-by-case basis who would go to heaven and who would go to hell.
Leaving religious notions behind, the logic was a sort of time paradox. If it killed
someone who was never originally supposed to be killed, their children would never be
born. And then their grandchildren and their great-grandchildren—none of them would
be born. Just like how someone who uses a time machine is a transcender who can bend
history to his will, this angel, who was out of position with the history of mankind, had
the power to change mankind’s future and its ultimate end.
A transcender.

Now quoting myself:
"The point of the analogy is that while a time traveler will travel to the past and change the present+future based on their actions in the past, Gabriel is disconnected from humanity's history and can thus take actions to change the future while in the present, with both being called Transcenders, in context those are beings who can change the future."
Future here is a set in stone one, this should at the very least give "possibly Type 4 Acausality", due to debates on the actual existence of Fate in Toaru... which is strange to even be a debate, but whatever.
