Hebrews 1:4-8 "Being
made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained
a more excellent name than they. 5. For unto which of the angels
said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And
again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? 6. And
again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith, And
let all the angels of God worship him. 7. And of the angels
he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of
fire. 8. But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O
God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the
sceptre of thy kingdom."
Hebrews 1:13-14
"But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right
hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? 14. Are they not all
ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who
shall be heirs of salvation?"
Daniel 10:5-6
"Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man
clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of
Uphaz: 6. His body also was like the
beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his
eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his
feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words
like the voice of a multitude."
Daniel 10:12-13
"Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that
thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy
God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words. 13. But
the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one
and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came
to help me; and I remained (detained) there with the kings
of Persia."
Daniel 10:20
"Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I
return to fight with the prince of Persia:
and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall
come."
Jude 1:9
"Yet Michael the archangel,
when contending with the devil (Satan had more rank) he disputed
about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing
accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee."
Hebrews 2:6-8
"But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou
art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him? 7. Thou
madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with
glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: 8. . .
. But now we see not yet all things put under him.”
Hebrews 2:9
"But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the
angels (as a man, Heb. 2:16) for the suffering of death,
crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death
for every man."
Matthew 4:10-11
"Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written
(The Word was his authority and ours, not rank), Thou shalt worship the
Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11. Then the devil leaveth
him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him."

power to us-ward who believe [present tense], according to
the working of his mighty power, 20. Which he wrought in Christ, when
he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the
heavenly places, 21. Far above all principality, and
power, and might, and dominion, and every name that
is named, not only in this world [age], but also in that which
is to come [the coming age, the millennial kingdom]:"

Ephesians 6:12-13
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but
against principalities, against powers, against the rulers
of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in
high [heavenly] places. 13. Wherefore take unto you the
whole armour of God, that ye may be able to
withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."
Romans 8:37-39
"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors
through him that loved us. 38. For I am persuaded, that
neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor

depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love
of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

children [sons] of God, being the children [sons] of
the resurrection."

"And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels
fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

salvation (so great salvation), and strength, and the kingdom
of our God, and the power [authority] of
his Christ:. . . "
