the angels which are in heaven.
Luke 20:35
But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
Scripture was also influenced by the culture of the times in which it was written; literature of biblical times always defaulted to the male gender. Most languages in the world are still this way today. According to the Wikipedia Encyclopedia, “In Indo-European and Afro-Asiatic languages, male pronouns have traditionally been used when referring to both genders or to a person or people of an unknown gender.” 2 In the male-dominated society of biblical times, it would have been natural for the authors of the Bible to refer to the beings who were “greater than men” as being male rather than female (Psalms 8:5; Hebrews 2:7-9). Galatians 3:26-28 is a prime example of the influence of culture in literature; this scripture calls all Christians “sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus,” in the English Standard Version of the Bible, and this includes women because it states immediately afterward that there is “neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” Such an admission was extremely liberal for the day in which it was written, yet even with this bold statement of equality between men and women, all are referred to as sons. Scripture is scattered with numerous examples like this that document the simple fact that the literature of biblical times (and even today), frequently defaults to the male gender when speaking in general terminology.
So God created the universe and filled it with life. Then after some time had passed, various species advanced greatly (advanced, not evolved). These species completely populated their planets, then spread to other planets. God translated many of these advanced species into new natures that no longer reproduced, just as he will do for humanity in the future (Matthew 22:30; Mark 12:25; Luke 20:35; Revelation 21:16, 22:8-9). This new nature differentiates angels from the larger group I’ve been referring to as the host of heaven. Mortal humans, for example, are considered hosts in scripture (Exodus 12:41), whereas glorified, translated humans are called angels (Revelation 22:8-9).
Exodus 12:41
And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.
Revelation 22:8—9 (bold emphasis added)
And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which showed me these things. Then said he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren the prophets and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
There are various classes of angels throughout the universe (Ephesians 6:12; Colossians 1:15—16); the most powerful among them are called archangels (Daniel 12:1; Revelation 12:7—9—Michael is the archangel who defeated Lucifer and cast him out of the highest heaven, which means that Lucifer was probably an archangel as well). In the Old Testament, archangels are called gods in several places, but the ancient Israelites clearly understood the distinction between these less powerful, finite, created beings, and their Creator, the eternal God, who has unique attributes (all powerful, all knowing, no beginning or ending, the Creator, and so forth) that no created being will ever have.
Ephesians 6:12 (bold emphasis added)
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Colossians 1:15—16 (bold emphasis added)

Luke 20:35
