The Christian god must be shy as fuck to send a local manager with the package...
Probably not a serious answer, but as a tangent, iirc St. Thomas Aquinas believed that angels were not actual beings or messengers and didn't posses a soul. They are direct extensions of god, as we would have arms and legs as extensions or apendages, angels are the "arms and legs" of god.
Edit: because some people have shown interest, the idea that angels at some point rebelled against god and Lucifer became their leader is from a 1667 poem called Paradise Lost by John Milton.
Its an amazing work of fiction that ties in to some already existing mythos at the time (like the hierarchy of angels, from cherubs to seraphim) but it has nothing to do with what's in religious texts, either Jewish, Christian or Muslim.
How can they rebell then?
You can't rebel unless it's in god's plan. Ergo, he's putting on a little puppet play and playing both sides.

The rebellion is from paradise lost, not in any religious text I thought? I'm no expert.

Alien hand syndrome?
