I believe angels exist but I dont believe in them because I believe in God. No disrespect to Angeles in anyway. Im Christian Pentecostal by the way. Angels are in charge mostly of keeping you safe on this earth. You have one with you all the time that documents what you do what you say "sin" and trys to lead you in the right path. Yet you also have demons that were once angels as well But Satan the Arcangels decieved them into forming a rebelion against God. So there was a war in heaven, and there was no more room found for satan and his angels and were cast down from heaven unto the earth. Believe it or not when you accept Jesus Christ as your one and only savior you have 5! angels with you all the time because God takes more care of the ones that have past from just being one of Gods creations to being a son or daughter. "Back to the angels" Theres a book that is called "A divine revelation of Angels" that should interest you. It talks about all the angels from cherubs, serraphim, arcangels, and angeles. Theres 2 that the bible mentions by name, and that is Michael the arcangel and Gabriel. You wanna know more of what they do? Lets say your getting nightmares caused by an evil spirit. you wake up at night and you feel an eerie presence. You pray to the lord and he will send one of his angeles to do battle with what ever is bugging you. Angels always win against demons by the way. anything else?

Angels appear in the form of humans in certain times of need. Like a girl falling out of a two-story window and saying she was caught by a nice man. A man leading a girl out of a burning home while her parents were unconscious. Or a couple of farm hands aiding a woman with her mother stuck in the snow and later going back to find the farm had been deserted for yrs.
There are 'angel' stories probably happening everyday but the media isn't be inclined to spread the 'good news'.
There are also other types of angels with other duties.
Christian.

Yes, I believe in angels. In Islam, belief in the angels is one of the six pillars of faith, along with the belief in one God, the belief in the prophets (peace be upon them all), the belief in Judgment Day, the belief in the holy scriptures, and the belief in destiny (the good and bad).

We believe that God created angels to obey God and do whatever He orders them to do. There are angels for everything. Some have the job of recording your good deeds and your bad deeds. Some have the job of protecting you when you sleep. Some guard heaven. Some guard hell. Some ask for your forgiveness if they see you doing well. There is also an angel that takes away your soul once your time is up.

Oh yes... the bible talks about them a lot. I am a Christian. Angels are beautiful beings, but not like humans. Angels are messengers, and they have other jobs as well. However, all angels are not good. Some oppose God and they are called demons.
These are some of the tasks carried out by heavenly angels:
Worship and praise - This is the main activity portrayed in heaven (Isaiah 6:1-3; Revelation 4-5).
Revealing - They serve as messengers to communicate God's will to men. They helped reveal the law to Moses (Acts 7:52-53), and served as the carriers of much of the material in Daniel, and Revelation.
Guiding - Angels gave instructions to Joseph about the birth of Jesus (Matthew 1-2), to the women at the tomb, to Philip (Acts 8:26), and to Cornelius (Acts 10:1-8).
Providing - God has used angels to provide physical needs such as food for Hagar (Genesis 21:17-20), Elijah (1 Kings 19:6), and Christ after His temptation (Matthew 4:11).
Protecting - Keeping God's people out of physical danger, as in the cases of Daniel and the lions, and his three friends in the fiery furnace (Daniel 3 and 6).
Delivering - Getting God's people out of danger once they're in it. Angels released the apostles from prison in Acts 5, and repeated the process for Peter in Acts 12.
Strengthening and encouraging - Angels strengthened Jesus after His temptation (Matt 4:11), encouraged the apostles to keep preaching after releasing them from prison (Acts 5:19-20), and told Paul that everyone on his ship would survive the impending shipwreck (Acts 27:23-25).
Answering prayer - God often uses angels as His means of answering the prayers of His people (Daniel 9:20-24; 10:10-12; Acts 12:1-17).
Caring for believers at the moment of death - In the story of Lazarus and the rich man, we read that angels carried the spirit of Lazarus to “Abraham's bosom” when he died (Luke 16:22).

Angles are messengers of God Since the beginning of time, angels have delivered God's messages to mankind. Sometimes the messages are warnings of impending danger, sometimes instructions as to what to do in a particular situation, sometimes they are simply "there" as protection from enemy forces. Sometimes they bring joyful announcements as in the day they announced the birth of Jesus . I'm a Christian

I believe in angels.

Angels are God's worshippers in heaven when I go to the Kingdom of heaven I will be joining them.

Angels are also sent by God as extension of his hands, not that God cannot be there (he is omnipresent) but God sends us angels sometimes to help us one way or another.

I don't believe in religion. But I firmly believe in God, Jesus as my Lord and saviour and the Holy Spirit.

Yes, I believe in Angels. They are sent from God to protect us.

Psalms 91:11-12 "For he shall give his Angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."

I don't believe in organized religion, I am a theist. I believe God resides within all of us and I don't need a church telling me I am a sinner.

Allah ( the God) has created the angels from the light. they are honorable slaves of Allah. who obey him and execute his commands . Allah describes them " who disobey not, ( from executing) the commands they receive from Allah, but do that which they are commanded(Quran 66:6)
Allah created the angel to worship him.
only Allah knows how many are there.

1) Gabriel who is charged with delivering divine revelations to the prophets and messengers of Allah

2) Michael ( mikail) who is charged with the rain.

3) the angel of death who is charged with collecting humans soul.

4) the bearers of the throne of Allah and
the Guards of paradise and hell.
