19问：上帝对天使有何护理之工？

答：为使自己得荣耀，上帝藉其护理，上帝为了自己的荣耀，藉其护理之工，容许部份天使，在祂的限制和定规下（伯1:12；太8:31），蓄意堕落犯罪，并硬心到底，自取灭亡（犹6；彼后2:4；来2:16；约8:44）；又按自己旨意所喜悦的，藉着自己权柄、怜悯、公义之治理（王下19:35；来1:14），使其余的天使都被建立在圣洁和喜乐之中（提前5:21；可8:38；来12:22）。

Question 19: What is God’s providence towards the angels?

Answer: God by his providence permitted some of the angels, wilfully and irrecoverably, to fall into sin and damnation, limiting and ordering that, and all their sins, to his own glory; and established the rest in holiness and happiness; employing them all, at his pleasure, in the administrations of his power, mercy, and justice.
