God is infinitely higher than all other created beings, then comes angels, which have supernatural powers that man does not have, then comes man, who has intellect i.e. "created in the image of God", and lastly comes the animals.

What does the Bible say about being a little less that angels?
The actual phrase is "a little lower than the angels," and refers to Christ becoming man. The inference is also that man himself (as a created being) is "a little lower than the angels." Psalm 8:4, 5 - What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor. Hebrews 2:7 - You have made him a little lower than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor, And set him over the works of Your hands. Hebrews 2:9 -But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone.

How can Jesus be God when he is 'a little lower than angels' Hebrews 2 v9?
In Hebrews 2:9, the phrase "a little lower than angels" is referring to Jesus taking on human form during his time on earth. Despite this temporary state of lower position, Jesus remains fully divine and is equal to God in essence. This verse emphasizes the humanity of Jesus while also highlighting his ultimate exaltation and glory as the Son of God.
How can you be sure that you're an angel?
Answer:Angels are "spirit beings"... and man is "lower than the angels.""...Who maketh His angels spirits, and His ministers a flame of fire..." (Heb.1:7)."...What is man, that thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man, that thou visitest him? Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him. But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that He by the grace of God should taste death for every man." (Heb.2:6-9)"...For verily He took not on Him the nature of angels; but He took on Him the seed of Abraham." (verse 16)Men aren't angels.

If Jesus was lower than angels Hebrews 2v9 and Paul is greater than angels Galatians 1v8 then is Paul greater than Jesus?
Yep! If Jesus were indeed lower than the angels and Paul were indeed greater than angels, then the conclusion must be true. The problem is, that's not what the Bible says in context. Hebrews 2:9 does indeed say that Jesus was "made" a little lower than the angels. Verses 6-8 quote Psalm 8, which says that man was made a little lower than the angels. The question becomes, what definition of "made" should we use? One definition would indicate that both were created in that state. If that's the definition to use, then we must also conclude that Jesus was a created being. The problem there is that He cannot be God "in the flesh" if He were created. See the related question "Is Jesus God" and "Is Jesus the Son of God" to the right for more information. Now let's look at Galatians. In the first part of the letter Paul is addressing a problem that the church at Galatia is having: that of abandoning Christ for "a different gospel" (v. 6). Galatians 1:8, in the NIV, reads: "But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned!" This isn't saying that Paul is more important than an angel, but rather that the Gospel that the Galatians have been taught by Paul and others (presumably other apostles) is more important than any other variation they may hear, no matter from whom it comes, even it's from an alleged "angel." Thus, Paul is not saying he's greater than any given angel, though one could infer that he's more important than any angel who preaches a lie as the truth (which would include the various angels that fell with Lucifer, also called Satan). The phrasing, however, doesn't really support this directly, either, and it especially doesn't compare to Hebrews 2.

Where in Bible does Jesus say he can command legions of angels?
The night He was arrested, when His disciples tried to protect Him with physical force, Jesus said, "Put your sword in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword. Or do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels?"(Matthew 26:52, 53 NKJV)While it is true Jesus made the statement in Matthew 26:53 that twelve legions of angels could be made available to Him, let's not overlook what He said before this ... "think that I cannot pray to My Father, and HE will provide". It seems that the command would have come from God the Father, not God the Son (Jesus).Psalm 8:4, 5 & Hebrews 2:6, 7, says that man is created a little lower than the angels. Hebrews 2:9 makes it clear that Jesus was sent to the earth and held a position lower than angels (He became man). Jesus as God incarnate would have to obey the laws that governed men. Though He was God in the flesh, He could not operate as God. So ... nowhere in the Bible does it say that Jesus can command legions of angels.
