HEBREWS 1:14 How do angels minister to the needs of believers? The phrase sent forth here denotes sending out as messengers - like apostles - to minister to the needs of believers (CP Psa 91:11-12; 103:20-21; Mt 4:11; 18:10). We learn from these scriptures that angels are always watching the face of God so as to hear His command to help believers when needed (CP Gen 19:1-22; Dan 3:28; 6:16, 19-22; Lu 16:22; Ac 5:19-20; 12:6-11). In He 1:14 the author is summing up the function of angels as to that of Jesus. Jesus is the highest dignity, a co-ruler with God, whereas the angels are merely servants appointed to minister to believers (CP V4-14; 2:5).
