What does the Bible say about the nature of angels?

Angels, as described in Scripture, are created beings who serve as ministering spirits and messengers of God. They are often depicted as being in the presence of God, fulfilling His commands and assisting believers in their journey of faith. Hebrews 1:14 emphasizes their role: 'Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?' This suggests that angels have a vested interest in God’s redemptive plan for humanity, engaging with the affairs of His people and rejoicing at their conversion.
