Entering heaven, the Christian expects to see the Lord Jesus, and ultimately the heavenly Father, according to the promise.

As the Christian looks over the precious promises given to the church, he finds many assurances that he has had an unseen friend during his earthly pilgrimage, namely, his guardian angel.

Of such the Psalmist wrote: "The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them".

(Psalm 34:7; Hebrews 1:14) These angels are doubtless messengers for Jehovah, because of them Jesus said: 'In heaven they do always behold the face of my Father' .-- Matthew 18:10.
[527]Describing the conditions and events in connection with the general assembly of the church of the firstborn, St.Paul writes: "Ye are come ...

to an innumerable company of angels".
