4: If the Bible names four angels and there are millions, how do we know the names of more?
4. The Bible names a fair bit more than just four. Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael are all in there. And we can read Death as possibly being an angel. Lucifer (the devil, Satan, the adversary) is also named, as are many other demons, but we needn't go into all that. Names are given to angels in other non-Scriptural writings from both the Old Testament and New Testament periods (and later times as well). Again, these are not articles of faith but traditional tools in religious writings.
