Cherub

  
Here's a cherub if there ever was one.

A Cherub's first definition in the dictionary is , “A winged heavenly creature.” Cherubim is the plural of cherub. In the Word, the words cherub or cherubim are used to indicate a guard - the Lord’s providence guarding against profanation, which is the mixing of truth with evil, or good with falsity.
