God Himself is, seeing the most excellent of the Angels are His subjects. The like argu∣ment see Isa. 10.8. Hos. 8.10. Judg. 1.7.
2 See what we must doe, if we would have the Angels our friends: viz. we must see that we be reconciled unto God in Christ, and walk humbly and uprightly before Him; and then we shall have the assistance of the Angels (who are His Angels) ever ready at hand, yea they will be in some sort our An∣gels Mat. 18.10.
This confutes worshipping of Angels,* 1.2 seeing they are not Deus, but Dei, not God, but the Angels of God.
The other uses which might be deduced from hence, may more fitly be reserved for the following Doctrines.
Onely hence we may be exhorted,* 1.3 that we also would be Gods, as the Angels are, in the third respect, viz. of actuall obedience and persisting in His covenant.
