The Origin of Angels Ezek. 10:9 Angels were created is taught in Col. 1:16. All angels were created simultaneously; God did not create some angels at one point and more angels at another point. Then, the number of angels does not increase, as God is not continually creating new angels. Neither does the number of angels decrease. Angels, once they are created, exist forever; they cannot be destroyed. Angels play a great part of our prayers. How many angels are there? There are several passages of Scripture that give hints concerning the number of angels. Deut. 33:2 mentions ten thousand of angels; 2 Kin. 6:17: a whole mountain ... full of angels; Ps. 68:17: twenty thousand angels plus thousands upon thousands; Dan. 7:10: thousands of thousands and ten thousand times ten thousand; Mat. 26:53: twelve legions of angels, a legion consists of three thousand to six thousand individuals; Lk. 2:13: a multitude of the heavenly host; Rev. 5:11: ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands. In Heb. 12:22: innumerable hosts of angels. How many angels are there? They are innumerable, armies and multitudes.

They had the ability to make an unholy choice, which one-third of them eventually did.
