Because if you ask God to remove the crumbs from the table, you are afraid that He will say, “My grace is sufficient for thee”?


Agreed. But since we have not the authority to send them and are not the persons who sent them, our authority is limited until what time we inherit.


You say that often and never provide the Scripture. You are a well without water.



That is what the owner wants us to do.
Matthew 7:7-11
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?


That does not show that they are under our orders.
If someone pays someone to wash my car, they are sent to serve me. That doesn’t mean I can expect them to wash my house on the same dime. They don’t work for me even though the work they are doing is for me.


:Rolleyes WOW!
Angels are the messengers of God. People are on the same level as we are.
We are made lower than angels.
We are not yet made like Christ and elevated above angels.



Not at all. I agree with that Scripture, but you add a meaning into it that is not there.


They are not the messenger of the Lord any longer? Just your personal butler?


The new covenant makes no mention of angels. It discusses our relationship with God, which you ignore for a relationship with angels.


But you are not the Person doing the sending.

Angels are a higher order of creation than us, superior in intellect and ability but we are higher status as joint heirs with Christ.
God became man, not angel.
