Short Statement (from The Essential Scriptures by Kevin Zuber):  

There can be little doubt that the Bible reveals the existence of angels.  Angels serve God as messengers of judgment, they give Him praise, and they reveal significant developments in the progress of God's program.  

Scripture also reveals the existence of Satan and demons.  Both oppose God and deceivers.

While there is not a specific statement in doctrinal statement about angelology, there are things that need to be clarified for our people as it relates to what they believe and conversations they might have with others.

Some ideas to consider:

What is the purpose of angels?
Does each individual have their own guardian angel?
Do people become angels?

Are my sins and hardships caused by demons?
