"When the Lord sends an angel to visit men, He gives him power and authority to appear to the people as a man, and not as an angel in his glory; for we could not endure the presence even of an angel in his glory. No mortall man has ever seen God in His glory at any time and liven. We may have seen the Lord and angels many times, and did not know it."
Brigham Young , January 8th, 1865. Journal of Discourses 11: 40-41


"Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares."
Hebrews 13:2


Here is a list of what Angels do:

· Serve as a messenger of warning
· Reveal new truths
· Invite humanity to repent and come unto Christ
· Teach Doctrine and the Plan of Salvation
· Messengers of Instruction
· Announce Judgment and Calamities
· Protect the Righteous and Destroy the Wicked
· Restore priesthood keys
· Have power over the elements
· Accompany Christ at His 2nd Coming.

"Behold I say unto you, Nay; for it is by faith that miracles are wrought; and it is by faith that angels appear and minister unto men; wherefore, if these things have ceased wo be unto the children of men, for it is because of unbelief, and all is vain"
Moroni 7:37
