While there are physical bodies, visible and palpable, there are also spiritual bodies, invisible to human eyes and entirely beyond human senses. The bodies of spirit persons (God, Christ, the angels) are glorious. “At no time has anyone beheld God.” (1Jo 4:12) Man cannot see God and live. (Ex 33:20) When the apostle Paul had only a glimpse of the manifestation of Jesus Christ after Jesus’ resurrection, he fell to the ground and was blinded by the brilliance, a miracle being required to restore his sight. Likewise, angels are far more powerful than men. They are glorious, brilliant ones and have appeared as such in physical manifestations. (Mt 28:2-4; Lu 2:9) These spirit sons of God have vision strong enough to see and endure the brilliance of the Almighty God.

What Do They Look Like?

Perhaps you may picture angels as beautiful women or as chubby, babylike creatures with wings, smiling sweetly in white robes, plucking at tiny harps, and hovering in the air. If so, you should know that these are misconceptions derived from pagan ideas, such as Greek mythology. Or the ideas were adopted after Bible writing was completed. In Biblical symbolic visions, spirit creatures such as seraphs and cherubs have wings. Isaiah 6:2

God’s Word describes angels as very powerful spirits, and a spirit is invisible. It was an “angel of Jehovah” that struck down 185,000 Assyrians in the camp of the enemy of Israel in just one evening! (Isaiah 37:36) When angels showed themselves to humans, they always appeared as fully clothed men, not as women or children and never in subhuman form.

The Bible says that angels look just the same as every body else.
Heb 13:2 Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doin some people have entertained angels without knowing it.
I have never seen an angel, but I have witnessed miracles where it had to be an invisible guardian angel or else the hand of God.

It is a long story to share here but as for what it looked like, it looked like a four or five year old child, it's aura lit up everything with a very bright white light, it was floating off the ground, it had on white robes with gold thread running through, it had a gold crown on it's head that went up into a tall point, it had short brown hair and the most beautiful face I've ever seen, I could not tell if it was male or female, I could not distinguish any nationality, I sang with it in a language that I do not know but it was like I knew the song and our voices sounded like music as we sang. The other angel that I saw looked like a elderly black man.
