Bible Answer: Since you posted this as a question I feel free to respond.

Unless you accept that the Torah is edited together from different traditions or that one person can rightly say they did something because there agent actually did it at there bidding you are going to have a hard time reconciling these things. In 1 Ch 21:15 the destroyer is the angel of the Lord. There are times in the Torah there is confusion of who is acting whether it is God or the angel of the Lord. Some people consider the visitor's Abraham before the destruction of Sodom and Gemorrah to be God. There is a possibility that none of these other beings actually exist but it is a way of communicating that the people of that time would understand.
