The Apostle Paul mentions in his Epistles that: Do you not know that we shall judge angels? (1 Corinthians VI, 2-3) — there are two meanings here. The first refers to the revelation of God's will, against which the angels sinned, falling away from God together with the devil, while the apostles are an example of fidelity to God. This will, therefore, be a kind of judgement on those angels by the apostles and the faithful. The second meaning has to do with the biblical concept of judgement - see in particular the book of Judges - which is the resolution of cases, governance without mastery and domination. That is, God's will will be revealed through the apostles to the angels, who will obey it. This is how the apostles' judgement of the angels will be exercised. This can also apply to believers.

It may seem strange that a human being can reveal God's will to an angel. But a human being, in particular, as a spiritual and corporeal creature, can act differently in relation to corporeal things than angels do. For example, people can create. Therefore, they can also reveal God's will to angels, being like them in purity and holiness in the Kingdom of God.
