Introduction An analysis of the significance relating to angels and demons reveals dilemmas facing the true believer: how to understand who angels and demons are and how they work in Christian lives.

Angels: Theological Definition The term angel means messenger. Angels are of a divine hierarchy who marked witness of creation by God (KJV, Job 38: 4-7). KJV, Colossians 1:16 prove that angels are beings fashioned by God thus stating, "For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible." These entities are spiritual in nature and do not own the limitations of human flesh (Davidson, 2012). Angels forewarn, guide, instruct, guard, defend, and minister to the ones God loves. They collectively praise His Majesty constantly. According to Altrogge (1996), angels are holy but can act untrustworthy and err in judgment as described in KJV Job 4:18 when the text states, " Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly." KJV Genesis 18:2 edifies the understanding that angels have appeared on earth while visiting Abraham. The Bible further clarifies visitations of angels on earth as Gabriel was sent to visit Jacob. The archangel, Michael, is the ruler of all the angels. It is believed that Michael is remarkably strong and a guardian to those who God loves. This angel is passionate about truth and justice.
