Definition and Nature
Angels are spiritual beings created by God to serve as His messengers and to execute His will. They are often depicted as possessing great power and wisdom, yet they remain subordinate to God. The term "angel" is derived from the Greek word "angelos," meaning "messenger." In the Hebrew Bible, the equivalent term is "mal'akh."

Biblical Descriptions and Roles
Angels are frequently mentioned throughout the Bible, fulfilling various roles and functions. They are described as ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation (Hebrews 1:14). Angels are often depicted as worshiping God and standing in His presence, as seen in Isaiah 6:2-3, where the seraphim proclaim, "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of Hosts; His glory fills the whole earth."

Messengers of God
One of the primary roles of angels is to act as messengers of God. In the New Testament, the angel Gabriel is sent to Mary to announce the birth of Jesus (Luke 1:26-38). Similarly, an angel appears to Joseph in a dream to reassure him about taking Mary as his wife (Matthew 1:20-21).

Protectors and Warriors
Angels also serve as protectors and warriors. Psalm 91:11-12 states, "For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone." In the Old Testament, the angel of the LORD strikes down 185,000 Assyrian soldiers, demonstrating their role as divine warriors (2 Kings 19:35).

Guides and Comforters
Angels provide guidance and comfort to believers. In Acts 8:26, an angel instructs Philip to go to the desert road, leading to the conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch. After Jesus' resurrection, angels comfort the women at the tomb, saying, "He is not here; He has risen!" (Matthew 28:6).

Hierarchy and Types
The Bible suggests a hierarchy among angels, with different types and ranks. Michael is referred to as an archangel, a leader among angels (Jude 1:9). Cherubim and seraphim are specific types of angels associated with the presence and worship of God (Ezekiel 10:1-22; Isaiah 6:2-6).

Fallen Angels
Scripture also speaks of angels who rebelled against God, led by Satan. These fallen angels, or demons, oppose God's purposes and seek to deceive humanity. Revelation 12:7-9 describes a war in heaven where Michael and his angels fight against the dragon (Satan) and his angels, who are ultimately defeated and cast out of heaven.

Angels in Eschatology
In eschatological contexts, angels play significant roles in the unfolding of end-time events. They are involved in the gathering of the elect (Matthew 24:31) and the execution of God's judgment (Revelation 8:6-13). Angels are also present at the final judgment, separating the righteous from the wicked (Matthew 13:49-50).

Worship and Reverence
While angels are powerful and holy beings, the Bible makes it clear that they are not to be worshiped. In Revelation 22:8-9, when John attempts to worship an angel, the angel responds, "Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!"

Conclusion
Angels are integral to the biblical narrative, serving as messengers, protectors, and executors of God's will. They are revered as powerful and holy beings, yet they remain servants of God, pointing humanity towards worship and obedience to the Creator.

Angels

By the word "angels" (i.e. "messengers" of God) we ordinarily understand a race of spiritual beings of a nature exalted far above that of man, although infinitely removed from that of God--whose office is "to do him service in heaven, and by his appointment to succor and defend men on earth. I. Scriptural use of the word . --There are many passages in which the expression "angel of God" is certainly used for a manifestation of God himself (Genesis 22:11) with Genesis 22:12 and Exod 3:2 with Exod 3:6 and Exod 3:14 It is to be observed, also, that side by side with these expressions we read of God's being manifested in the form of man --as to Abraham at Mamre, (Genesis 18:2,22) comp. Genesis 19:1 To Jacob at Penuel, (Genesis 32:24,30) to Joshua at Gilgal, (Joshua 5:13,15) etc. Besides this, which is the highest application of the word angel, we find the phrase used of any messengers of God, such as the prophets, (Isaiah 42:19; Haggai 1:13; Malachi 3:1) the priests, (Malachi 2:7) and the rulers of the Christian churches. (Revelation 1:20) II. Nature of angels --Angels are termed "spirits," as in (Hebrews 1:14) --but it is not asserted that the angelic nature is incorporeal. The contrary seems expressly implied in (Luke 20:36; Philemon 3:21) The angels are revealed to us as beings such as man might be, and will be when the power of sin and death is removed, because always beholding his face, (Matthew 18:10) and therefore being "made like him." (1 John 3:2) Their number must be very large, (1 Kings 22:19; Matthew 26:53; Hebrews 12:22) their strength is great, (Psalms 103:20; Revelation 5:2; 18:21) their activity marvelous (Isaiah 6:2-6; Matthew 26:53; Revelation 8:13) their appearance varied according to circumstances, but was often brilliant and dazzling. (Matthew 28:2-7; Revelation 10:1,2) Of the nature of "fallen angels," the circumstances and nature of the temptation by which they fell, we know absolutely nothing. All that is certain is that they "left their first estate" and that they are now "angels of the devil." (Matthew 25:41; Revelation 12:7,9) On the other hand the title especially assigned to the angels of God--that of the "holy ones," see (Daniel 4:13,23; 8:13; Matthew 25:31) --is precisely the one which is given to those men who are renewed in Christ's image. Comp. (Hebrews 2:10; 5:9; 12:23) III. Office of the angels . Of their office in heaven we have only vague prophetic glimpses as in (1 Kings 22:19; Isaiah 6:1-3; Daniel 7:9,10; Revelation 6:11), etc., which show us nothing but a never-ceasing adoration. They are represented as being, in the widest sense, agents of God's providence, natural and supernatural, to the body and to the soul. In one word, they are Christ's ministers of grace now, and they shall be of judgment hereafter. (Matthew 13:39,41,49; 16:27; 24:31) etc. That there are degrees of the angelic nature, both fallen and unfallen, and special titles and agencies belonging to each, is clearly declared by St. Paul, (Ephesians 1:21; Romans 8:38) but what their general nature is it is useless to speculate.

ANGELS OF THE SEVEN CHURCHES

It is evident from the contexts of the various Biblical passages in which the word "angel" appears, that the word does not always represent the same idea. In such passages as Daniel 12:1 and Acts 12:15 it would seem that the angel was generally regarded as a superhuman being whose duty it was to guard a nation or an individual, not unlike the jenei of the Arabs. However, in Malachi 2:7, 3:1 (Hebrew) the word is clearly used to represent men. In the New Testament also, there are passages, such as James 2:25 (Greek), in which the word seems to be applied to men. The seven angels of the seven churches (Revelation 1:20) received seven letters, figurative letters, and therefore it would seem that the seven angels are also figurative and may refer to the seven bishops who presided over the seven churches of Asia. Or the angels may be regarded as the personifications of the churches.
