They can appear like us when the Lord testing us.

Hebrews 13:2
Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.

This is a really good question with quite a few answers! It all depends on what you mean by angel!

The Bible describes what some angels look like but certainly not all of them.

Much more detail is given to certain types of angels than others.

In the Bible, angels and angelic/heavenly beings appear to be a-sexual, meaning that they don't belong to either the male or female gender.

most angelic appearances in the Bible, no physical description is given, just that an angel appeared or came or that someone 'looked like an angel'. People don't seem to have had any trouble recognising that the visitors they saw were angels, so there must be something very special about them that is unmistakable

However, most angels that are described in the Bible are normally described as tall young men with shining faces and wearing white simple robes. Also there is no mention of any wings

But you know what, one thing is sure... our angel is always on our side... to love and care for us. They are our own FAMILY. =)

I think they are very tall for some reason. And very beautiful. They shine with the reflected glory of God. They must be incredible and I hope to see them in heaven some day.

Based on the bible, they can look like anything. Satan was an angel, and he appeared to Eve as a snake.

lol, well ive seen several different versions of them(in paintings), but for the most they have wings. God may have given them the power to look however.
