Angels

 

An angel is a messenger of God. There is a hierarchy to the organization of angels:

"It is as messengers that they most often figure in the Bible, but, as St. Augustine, and after him St. Gregory, expresses it: angelus est nomen officii ("angel is the name of the office") and expresses neither their essential nature nor their essential function, viz.: that of attendants upon God's throne in that court of heaven [...]" http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01476d.htm



All people have personal guardian angels, even Jesus Christ had guardian angels. Angels are spiritual beings who do not have a body. Angels possess free will, they choose God or evil. Angels help humans listen to their conscious. Angels in modern culture are depicted with wings, which is not rue due to the fact they're spiritual. Scripture only names three angels: Raphael, Gabriel, and Michael. Angels are believed to be in Heaven.
