Hebrews 1:
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Are you saying that these angels are ministering to already saved Christians who shall be heirs of salvation?
it goes on to say
1¶Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
2For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
3How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
4God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?

Other than the title, Hebrews 1 and 2 gave so many clues that it was written to the nation Israel.
Vs 3 and 4 are yet further evidence, as you pointed out
3How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord (Matthew 15:24, Matthew 10:5, Ephesians 2:11-12 only to Israel), and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him (Peter in Acts 2:5, 2:13, 2:22, 2:36 only speaking to Israel) ;
4God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders (Psalms 74:9, 1 Corinthians 1:22 signs and wonders are for Jews), and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?[/QUOTE]
The angels are ministering spirits sent forth to minister to the saints.
The Bible says that the angels ministered unto Jesus which the man Christ Jesus inherited salvation.
this says Christ and the apostles preached the same gospel of salvation, doesn't it?
