The angel in 22:6 appears to be one of the seven angels in 21:9, which is
not necessarily the one mentioned in 1:1.

Since both hO KURIOS and hO QEOS can refer to either God Almighty or Jesus
in Revelation, the
reference in 22:6 is ambiguous. Rev. often disambiguates by adding hO
PANTOKRATHR if God Almighty is
in view. Here, the context indicates that the reference is Jesus as the Lord
and the God (master
over) the spirits of the prophets.
