Are they (angels) not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

Regius,
You've got it!
But unto the Son [he saith], Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness [is] the sceptre of thy kingdom.
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
Hebrews 1:8-9

pink,
I think I'm with you.
I just don't get:
"Ministering angels...yes.
God the Son...no. "

Acts 2 38,
Thank you.
"Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;"
Hebrews 2"1-3

Brothers and Sisters,
Did YOU notice who is NOT present when the Word of God (the sword) is persistantly spoken? Do see how they have scattered?
"reach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine" (II Timothy 4:2).

None of them - God said this to His only begotten Son, Jesus.
Book of Hebrews, chapter one, I believe.

I actual have not got self belief that. Logically talking: Why might a loving God take a individual's baby - that baby could desire to be the only one, or certainly one of two or 3 - to make yet another angel whilst he's have been given myriads and myriads of angels in heaven already? Biblically talking: The Bible teaches that the desire of the ineffective is to be resurrected decrease back to existence on earth after Armageddon, not resurrection to heavenly existence as a spirit. Clergy contributors of assorted religions do say that "God mandatory yet another angel" whilst babies die. i don't see something comforting approximately it, and that i will't fathom any logical reason they do this, because of the fact that is truthfully not a biblical coaching.

God never said these words to an angel, only to His Son Jesus Christ.
Praise God!

Um, to The Angel of the LORD?
Exodus 3:1-4 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. 2 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed. 3 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt. 4 And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.
Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
John 8:57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM.

"Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool" is in a Psalm, so God (one of my favorite fictional characters) isn't even saying it. It's just an old, disgruntled poet putting words in her mouth.

He didn"t say it to any Angel, only Jesus.
And yes, they are ministering spirits.
