1 | Angels? | Heb 1:13 | DocTrinsograce | 192618 | ||
Hi, CE... Welcome to the forum! The subject you are asking about is known in theology as angelogy. One of the problems we face today is that angels have a place in human folklore. Most of the time the world gets completely mixed up about angels. Hence the silly pictures of babies with wings, female angels, etc. etc. Unfortunately, just because you hear it come out of a pulpit, doesn't mean that it is sound. Angels are servants of God of which there are possibly several species. They do, indeed, enter the presence of God (Isiah 6:1-7). Angels also minister to the elect in various ways (Hebrews 1:13). They are curious about God's work (1 Peter 1:12), and by implication they can learn (cf Ephesians 3:20). They are presumably subordinate creations to humans. One passage even says that believers will one day judge the angels (1 Corinthians 6:3), although we shouldn't see that as judgment for sin. Does that help? In Him, Doc |

2 | Angels? | Heb 1:13 | CERough | 192623 | ||
This does help. All of these scriptures I have found already. But you did help me organize my thoughts in a way. But the scripture that you refered to in Hebrews refers to Jesus, not to all man. If you read the whole chapter you'll see that. Yes I agree that everything you hear is not the truth and thank you for stating that boldly for people to see. We do need to be checking our bible to see if things are true. i do not believe in the worship of angels, but was rather seeking to find out if the bible does actually state these claims. Thank you so much for you help and detailed answer. in christ, carmen |

Dear Carmen, You are right, of course, regarding Hebrews 1:13. I apologize, but I cited that verse in error. When I said, "Angels also minister to the elect in various ways" I meant to cite the verse that followed. "Are they [angels] not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation? (Hebrews 1:14 ESV)" Thank you for correcting me. In Him, Doc |
