Revelation 22:8-9
Revelation 22:8: “And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.”
There we have it: do not worship angels. Angels are our fellow servants. Both men and angels are to serve God, and only God is worthy of worship. This angel must have been glorious for John to be tempted to worship him, but the angel put a quick stop to it. Worship is reserved for God alone.
