What we believe and teach - Angelology - |
|
Angels are
heavenly beings who were created by God. They are holy and powerful and they
obey His word. Angels exist in exceeding great number; they worship God and
the Lamb who is at the right hand of God. They are ministering spirits sent
to serve those who will inherit salvation, for God uses angels to keep the
saints, to guide them, to supply their needs, to bring them some special
messages, to encourage them and to comfort them, and to deliver them from all
kinds of dangers, etc. However we must not worship nor invoke angels; we must
worship and invoke God. The angels of God may appear to men. Some people, by
entertaining strangers, have entertained angels without knowing it. |

God
created also cherubim and seraphim. The Scripture speaks also of an archangel
called Michael. |
