***No one bows to angels. The blessed Apostle did out of humility and not as worship. Surely, you don’t think an Apostle of the Lord was confused?***
Rev.22:8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me, 9 but he said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow servant [4] with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.”
Warning: I ALWAYS use my Bible to tell the truth. John fell down to WORSHIP the angel.
Don't be so triumphalistic. You read wrong.
The word used in Rev 22:8 for 'worship' is proskuneo. KJV translates this word 100% of the time as "worship" which is what the word means. The other term that is sometimes translated as "worship" is latreuo. The fact is, however, that the ancient Greeks used proskuneo as "obeisance" and latreu exclusively as worship for God.
It was customary (and still is in some communities) to show respect, which in the archaic meaning of the word fell under "worship," by bowing or prostrating, or kneeling. In ancient times this applied to all who were socially above you and in Christianity to all whose order of creation is higher than ours, and that includes angels.
So, the Apostle was not confused, nor was he wrong. But he didn't worship the angel as if he were God.
Consider only the wedding vows of the Book of Common Prayer ""with my body I thee worship."
You have to be careful when jumping to conclusions based on what you read in English translation of the Bible. It is equally important or read the Bible in the context of times, culture and social norms.
