Best Answer

The church of Christ maintains that The Bible is God's inspired word, so yes...the church believes in angels. Its attitude toward supposed "angelic manifestations" is cautious, though, in light of scriptures such as 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 - For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works. The general understanding (as it would be foolish to claim to know with absolute certainty) is that when angels are made manifest, they appear in the form of ordinary people: Hebrews 13:2 - Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels. The church does not teach, as some do, that anyone who acts as a messenger or servant of God can be thought of as an "angel." Scripture reveals that angels are created beings of an order a little higher than humans (Hebrews 2:9), who exist to serve God and carry out His will both in heaven and on earth. Pursuing angelic purposes does not make a person an angel any more than removing a splinter makes one a doctor.

Christians believe that angels are servants of God, and guardians of Christians. Demons are fallen angels that rebelled against God.

Do angels come when needed?

Depending on which denomination you belong to, you may not need an angel to come to you. Catholics and some other Christians believe guardian angels are already assigned to care for each individual human and keep him or her from harm. Of course, their existence comes down to faith even more than some other Christian traditions, which would explain why Christians face as much harm as anyone else.
