Q. 19. What is God’s providence towards the angels?
A. God by his providence permitted some of the angels, willfully and irrecoverably, to fall into sin and damnation, limiting and ordering that, and all their sins, to his own glory; and established the rest in holiness and happiness; employing them all, at his pleasure, in the administrations of his power, mercy, and justice.

Earlier we looked at God’s creation of angel. Here we see a few glimpses of his providence concerning them, both the fallen angels who joined Satan and his holy angels who are his ministering spirits to his creation and mankind. I’m glad they are Happy! 😃
