Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?

Warning to Pay Attention
We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.
-
Jesus Made Fully Human
It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking.
-
and put everything under their feet.” In putting everything under them, God left nothing that is not subject to them. Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them.
-
Both the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters.
-
and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.
-
For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants.
-
do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness,
-
That is why I was angry with that generation; I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known my ways.’
-
As has just been said: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion.”
-
Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?
-
And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies perished in the wilderness?
-
And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest if not to those who disobeyed?
-
So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.
-
For we also have had the good news proclaimed to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because they did not share the faith of those who obeyed.
-
Therefore since it still remains for some to enter that rest, and since those who formerly had the good news proclaimed to them did not go in because of their disobedience,
-
God again set a certain day, calling it “Today.” This he did when a long time later he spoke through David, as in the passage already quoted: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.”
-
For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day.
-
Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
-
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin.
-
In the same way, Christ did not take on himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father.”
-
In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!
-
Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness.
-
Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God,
-
God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
