Is Jesus Michael The Archangel?

Did you know that John Calvin, John Gill and Matthew Henry believed that Michael the archangel was Jesus? There are also some cult groups out there that believe that Michael the Archangel is Jesus as well. Jehovah's Witnesses (JW) believe that Michael the Archangel is Jesus and so do Seventh Day Adventists. Is this correct? Is Michael the archangel really Jesus? Well watch this video to find out. They use a bunch of different arguments, they say that there is only one archangel because in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 it says Jesus will come down with the voice of "the archangel", they say he is the commander of the Lords angelic host and that he is the great Prince of Israel etc.

Denominationalism only divides when the theory is abused. It was denominationalism that brought unity to the church and ended religious wars. According to denominationalism, all Christians believe the core tenets of the Bible (which is why churches always have a statement of core beliefs), when accepted as inspired and inerrant, but they debate peripheral issues under the guidance of Christ. (In a free and fair debate the truth will win, as Christ is Lord). This debate is done under the love of Christ. However, denominationalism is abused when peripheral concepts are made into core beliefs to condemn others.

SDA's believe that Jesus is no created angel, but the divine Son of God, the 2nd person of the Trinity, Yahweh. We believe, that "archangel" is a title, because Jesus is the leader of the angels, although he himself is not a created angel. It is similar to the title "Son of Man." Jesus is also called the Angel of Yahweh in the Old Testament, and the Angel of Yahweh is Yahweh God himself. (See Genesis 22:11-12, Exodus 3:2-6 and Zechariah 3:1-3)

Ironically enough, you fail to realize that the Word is speaking in the 1st person here. The NLT correctly renders this statement as Him saying " I, [the Eternal], reject your accusations, Satan .

This statement 100% disproves the belief that Jesus is Michael as false because the Word is giving Satan a double rebuke _with His own authority here, and as his Creator_ .

[@wilsonsmanz]

I think one small distinction needs to be made. JWs believe that Jesus by nature is less than God and so he is an angel, just the head of them.

Those are some very compelling arguments, but all things being equal, the first chapter of Hebrews seems to have been written to quell any misunderstandings on the topic. There are several passages that affirm the superiority of Jesus Christ over angels in addition to the one in the video. One key verse that contrasts Jesus with angels is Hebrews 1:5, which states, "For to which of the angels did God ever say, 'You are my Son, today I have begotten you'?" This verse highlights the special relationship between God the Father and Jesus as His Son, underscoring Jesus' exalted status above the angels. And still another significant passage in Hebrews that distinguishes Jesus from angels is Hebrews 1:4, which declares, "Having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs." This verse emphasizes the incomparable greatness and supremacy of Jesus Christ over all angelic beings, affirming His divine nature and authority as the Son of God. Throughout the book of Hebrews, it consistently serves to emphasize the preeminence of Jesus Christ and His role as the divine Savior, distinct from and superior to any angelic being.

[@DominikKoppensteiner]

SDAs believe, that Jesus is Michael the Archangel, but that does not mean, that he is a created being. Christians generally believe, that Jesus is the Son of Man, but that doesn't mean that he isn't God. So Jesus is God, and "Archangel" and "Son of Man" are simply his titles, and "Michael" and "Immanuel" are his prophetic names.

@@DominikKoppensteiner _SDAs believe, that Jesus is Michael the Archangel, but that does not mean, that he is a created being._ Yes it does mean that. Angels are created beings. There can't be an angel that wasn't created. Only God is eternal. And being the Son of Man is another title for the Messiah, who necessarily is God. It's based on the book of Daniel. *“I was watching in the night visions,* *_And behold, One like the Son of Man,_* *_Coming with the clouds of heaven!_* *He came to the Ancient of Days,* _-- Daniel 7:13_ And it was accounted to Jesus as blasphemy, the reason they crucified Him when He replied using the same terms: *62And Jesus said, “I am, and you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power, **_and coming with the clouds of heaven.”_** 63And the high priest tore his garments and said, **_“What further witnesses do we need? 64You have heard his blasphemy._** What is your decision?” And they all condemned him as deserving death.* _-- Mark 14:62_

[@DominikKoppensteiner]

And just like the Son of Man is God, the Angel of the Lord is God. (Genesis 22:11-12, Exodus 3:2-4, Zechariah 3:1-3, and Genesis 32:25-31 compared with Hosea 12:3-6) Usually, sons of men are created and angels are created. But in this case, the Son of Man and Angel of the Lord is an exception, because it is Jesus in human/angelic form. It would then be possible, considering that Jesus also appears as an angel, that "Archangel" is one of his many title, because it means that he is the commander of the angels.

[@DB_-]

@@DominikKoppensteiner The Angel of the Lord, while appearing in angelic form, is not a created angel, but rather a theophanic appearance of the eternal Son of God. However, the Bible does not state that Michael the Archangel is the same as the Angel of the Lord or Jesus Christ. We have to be cautious about making definitive claims beyond what the Scriptures clearly say. The Scriptures teach that angels are distinct, created beings, not to be worshipped or elevated above their rightful place (Colossians 2:18). Again, this is a clear indication that Michael the Archangel is not Jesus. The key is recognizing the special, divine status of the Angel of the Lord, even as Hebrews makes clear distinctions between Jesus and angels more broadly. This helps in understanding the relationship between these Old Testament and New Testament passages. The clear teaching of Hebrews is that Jesus, as the eternal Son of God, is infinitely superior to the angels. He is the ruler, the object of angelic worship, and the one who has accomplished the work of salvation - things that are not attributed to any angel.

[@DominikKoppensteiner]

@@DB_- Yes, but aren't you starting with the presupposition, that only a created angel can be an archangel? We do not have much information about Michael, but the information that we do have suggests, that there is no created angel called Michael, but that Michael is simply another prophetic name of Jesus, just like Immanuel, and that "Archangel" would be a title, similar to "Son of Man", that in no way denies the Trinity or turns a created angel into God. What we are saying, is this: Michael, as you imagine him, does not exist. Jesus, as the second person of the Godhead, does exist. And Jesus has multiple prophetic names, and "Michael" is one of them.

[@respuestas5280]

Michael, referred to by some religions as “Saint Michael,” is evidently a name given to Jesus before and after his life on earth. Michael disputed with Satan after the death of Moses and helped an angel deliver God’s message to the prophet Daniel. (Daniel 10:13, 21; Jude 9) Michael lives up to the meaning of his name​-“Who Is Like God?”​-by defending God’s rulership and fighting God’s enemies.​-Daniel 12:1; Revelation 12:7. Michael is “the archangel.” (Jude 9) The title “archangel,” meaning “chief of the angels,” appears in only two Bible verses. In both cases, the word is singular, suggesting that only one angel bears that title. One of those verses states that the resurrected Lord Jesus “will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel’s voice.” (1 Thessalonians 4:​16) Jesus has “an archangel’s voice” because he is the archangel, Michael. Michael commands an angelic army. “Michael and his angels battled with the dragon,” Satan. (Revelation 12:7) Michael has great authority in the spirit realm, for he is called “one of the foremost princes” and “the great prince.” (Daniel 10:13, 21; 12:1) These titles designate Michael as “the commander-in-chief of the angelic forces,” as New Testament scholar David E. Aune puts it. The Bible mentions only one other name of someone having authority over an army of angels. It describes “the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his powerful angels in a flaming fire, as he brings vengeance.” (2 Thessalonians 1:​7, 8; Matthew 16:27) Jesus “went to heaven, and angels and authorities and powers were made subject to him.” (1 Peter 3:​21, 22) It would not make sense for God to set up Jesus and Michael as rival commanders of the holy angels. Rather, it is more reasonable to conclude that both names, Jesus and Michael, refer to the same person. Michael “will stand up” during an unprecedented “time of distress.” (Daniel 12:1) In the book of Daniel, the expression “stand up” is often used to refer to a king who rises up to take special action. (Daniel 11:​2-4, 21) Jesus Christ, identified as “The Word of God,” will take special action as the “King of kings” to strike down all of God’s enemies and protect God’s people. (Revelation 19:11-​16) He will do so during a time of “great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning.”​-Matthew 24:21, 42.

(Numbers 23:19) But doing this goes against the meaning of the text. No Christian believes, that a simple man created the universe, and Adventists don't believe, that Jesus is a created angel. We don't say, that God calls a created angel his son, but that Jesus as the 2nd person of the Godhead has taken the heavenly title "Archangel", although he himself is not a created angel.

While the voice is not identified in the parable,one could rightly come to the conclusion that the church (His bride) is awaiting her Bridegroom and not an Arch angel,so it would seem the Arch angel is shouting *Here is the Bridegroom* according to verse 6. Also in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 we have not only Jesus coming with the voice of an Arch angel but also the sound of the trumpet of God,angels blow trumpets(Rev8:8) If we refer back to matt25:5,all the virgins had fallen asleep,the voice of the Arch angel and the blowing of the trumpet of God no doubt would awaken them from their slumber in order to meet the Bridegroom.

This verse appears in the Bible during the Last Supper, when Jesus is speaking to his disciples. You see Jesus' rulership is for a very short time. We need to learn from Jesus' example here on earth and honor Jesus' commandments so we will have access to Jehovah God, who is the ruler of the universe forever. (that's what John14:6 means). People have lost focus of the big picture. The New Testament is just a record of Jesus' life here on Earth, that's all. So, we need to follow Jesus commandments so we will have an opportunity to live forever. John 17:3 where Jesus states, “Now this is eternal life; that they know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.” Even Jesus Himself agrees that there is only one true God, which is not Himself, since He refers to Himself as separate and distinct from the “true God.” If we follow Jesus' commandments will have a relationship with both the father and the son. Revelation 1:5 and from Jesus Christ, “the Faithful Witness,” - Even Jesus Christ was a witness! Most Christian congregations don't have a relationship with God because they have rejected Jesus' New Commandments and The Lord's Prayer (they only worship the son, sports and holidays).

Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. The Lord's Prayer is very clear that the kingdom and the power and the glory belong to the father (not Jesus). Yet, most Christian congregations ignore Jesus' commandments. READ BELOW ↓ 2 John 1:9 Anyone who runs ahead without remaining in the teaching of Christ does not have God. Whoever remains in His teaching has both the Father and the Son. Matthew 15:8,9 These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship Me in vain, teaching as doctrines the commands of men. Matthew 7:14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. We are to pray to God, not Jesus - remember The Model Prayer. Pray like this, "Our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name." This is what Jesus taught, and the people in false religion hate it! We are to worship God, not Jesus, according to Jesus' New Commandments and The Model Prayer. Eph. 4:5 says there is one God and one faith - not many. There are many religions/faiths. But only one is right. The entire Bible verifies that! All the false faiths must come up with beliefs that tickle their ears. (2 Tim. 4:3) READ BELOW ↓ John 6:43-45 43 In answer Jesus said to them: “Stop murmuring among yourselves. 44 No man can come to me unless the Father, who sent me, draws him; and I will resurrect him in the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets, ‘And they will all be taught by Jehovah.’ Everyone that has heard from the Father and has learned comes to me. As these scriptures bring out, 1 - No man can come to me unless the Father, who sent me, draws him; 2 - 'And they will all be taught by Jehovah.' 3 - Everyone that has heard from the Father and has learned comes to me. Also, these three scriptures above put an end to the trinity nonsense! This message is very clear, if you are not being taught by Jehovah God or his organization, you will not receive everlasting life because you do not have access to ~ Jesus Christ ~ the Faithful Witness. Even Jesus was a witness. That means you'll need a Bible with God's name restored in 6,828 places. Most Christian congregations claim that Jesus is God and will not even acknowledge Jehovah God's name. As a matter of fact, they hate God's name, and they are not going access to Jesus or receive everlasting life. Also, most Christian congregations refuse to comply with Jesus' New Commandments and The Model Prayer. The most important scriptures of all and they are not going to be saved!! Get a Bible that has God's name restored - instead of a false religion Bible that has removed Jehovah God's name 6,828 places. The correct English translation for the word JHWH is Jehovah. All English Bibles say God's name is Jehovah (not Jesus). So the correct English translation for the name JHWH or Yahweh is Jehovah. READ BELOW ↓ The Chinese word for God is Shangdi The English word for God is Jehovah The Old Irish word for God is día The Italian word for God is Dio The Japanese word for God is kami The Korean word for God is ha-na-nim The Polish word for God is Bóg The Portuguese word for God is deus The Russian word for God is Бог The Spanish word for God is Dios The Scottish word for God is DOST We are to sanctify Jehovah God's name - not Jesus' name - (hallowed be thy name) not hate his name and refuse to even acknowledge his name. We are to love your God with all your heart, soul, and mind. Instead, they hate his name! Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. Psalms 37:20 For the wicked themselves will perish, And the enemies of Jehovah will be like the preciousness of pastures. They must come to their end. In smoke they must come to their end. 2 Timothy 4:4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 2 Peter 2:1-2 1 But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 2 Many will follow their evil teaching and shameful immorality. And because of these teachers, the way of truth will be slandered. READ BELOW ↓ But for the wicked who rejected Jesus' New Commandments and The Model Prayer and hate God's name and his people and who only worship the son, sports and holidays, their options are wide open. The wicked are annihilated-snuffed out of conscious existence forever. Biblically, however, hell is a real place of conscious, eternal suffering (Matt. 5:22; 25:41, 46; Jude 1:7; Rev. 14:11; 20:10, 14). I believe in what the Bible says. How about you? Since the wicked chose to be an enemy of God, they will defiantly be going to Hades or option A, B, C, D, E, F, etc. I have created a list of options that may help them decide before judgement time arrives, so they should plan in advance due to limited space.

I'm not saying that it is not possible that you are right, I'm just thinking a better case could be made to bring your point forward.

You make a good point about praising the angel and I had originally considered this aspect as defining, but the encounter in the book of Joshua where Joshua worships the mysterious figure, is often interpreted as a theophany of God Himself. Caleb mentioned this in the video. The fact that Joshua's act of worship is not rebuked suggests the possibility that this figure holds a special divine significance, possibly representing a manifestation of God's presence and authority in the midst of the Israelites. And yes, I know I used a variant of "possible" in my explanation, but to be fair you did as well. )) God Bless.

Daniel 12:1 ties in with Revelation 12:7-13. It refers to the time of trouble before Christ's return. Some think the church will be raptured before this, but that is not supported by scripture, since it talks about the church being overcome by the Beast, and many being killed for the gospel as never before in history. Jesus even said we must expect tribulation, so being raptured before the Great Tribulation has never been part of God's plan. John 15:18-19, Matthew 24:3-44.

Yes, and Michael is another name of Jesus, just like Immanuel. That does not mean, that Jesus is a created angel, but he is the commander of angels. If Michael was a created angel, why would he be mentioned instead of Christ in Daniel 12:1? Michael is also called our great prince in Daniel 10:21 and 12:1. How could a created angel be our great prince? Our great prince has to be Jesus Christ, the Son of Man, the Son of God, the creator God revealed in the flesh, the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End, the Wonderful Counseller, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

No, it is not. It is about the time where the archangel Michael will be sent to protect the true followers of God from the Tribulation when it begins. Rev. 12 talks about how Satan will come after those ppl first, but he won't be allowed to get to them because they are protected. Michael is the angel who protects the true Church of God.

If they are the first fruits, then wouldn't that mean they will be the last ones saved, since they will behold the One they pierced? Revelation 14:1-5.

Calvin's commentary on Daniel 10 exemplifies his exploratory and contextual approach to biblical interpretation, rather than a definitive doctrinal statement. His phrase "I do not object to this view" indicates that he neither entirely rejected nor accepted the idea that Michael the archangel is Jesus. Calvin's reasoning that the title "prince of the Church" is unique to Christ suggests an openness to this interpretation in this specific context. However, it is crucial to note that Calvin never explicitly affirmed or denied the identification of Jesus with Michael in his theological arguments. Calvin's views on this topic are characterized by nuance, and it is important to consider the context in which he made this statement. Labeling Calvin a heretic based on this single comment is inaccurate and oversimplifies his contributions to Reformed theology. Furthermore, your argument presents a false dichotomy, positing that if one believes it is heretical to equate Jesus with Michael, then they must necessarily consider Calvin a heretic. This is an unsound theological argument, as it neglects the complexity of Calvin's thought and the speculative nature of his commentary. Calvin was a renowned theologian who made significant contributions to the Reformation. His biblical interpretations and speculations, like those of contemporary scholars, were subject to the limitations of his time and context. It is important to recognize that his speculations did not necessarily constitute doctrine.

[@iThinkBiblically]

Actually there is another place where he specifically embraces the doctrine when he lectures on Daniel 12:1; LECTURE SIXTY-FIVE. I embrace the opinion of those who refer this to the person of Christ, because it suits the subject best to represent him as standing forward for the defense of his elect people. He is called the mighty prince, because he naturally opposed the unconquered fortitude of God to those dangers to which the angel represents the Church to be subject. sacred-texts.com/chr/calvin/cc25/cc25006.htm

[@iThinkBiblically]

The Geneva Bible Commentary agrees in its comments on Daniel 12:1: The angel here notes two things: first that the Church will be in great affliction and trouble at Christ's coming, and next that God will send his angel to deliver it, whom he here calls Michael, meaning Christ, who is proclaimed by the preaching of the Gospel.

[@iThinkBiblically]

So did Johnathon Edwards: Satan has ever had a peculiar enmity against the Son of God. Probably his first rebellion, which was his condemnation, was his proudly taking it in disdain, when God declared the decree in heaven, that his Son in man’s nature, should be the King of heaven, and that all the angels should worship him. However that was, yet it is certain that his strife has ever been especially against the Son of God. The enmity has always been between the seed of the woman, and the serpent. And therefore that war which the devil maintains against God is represented by the devil and his angels fighting against Michael and his angels (Rev. 12:7). This Michael is Christ (Dan. 10:21 and 12:1). (Jonathan Edwards, Christ Exalted, Section III)

Looking at Heb 1:4 Jesus became better than the angels at His ascension. Psalm 8:4-5 is actually a prophecy of Jesus being made a little lower than the angels for a time. Then at His ascension He was enthroned and everything was placed under His feet. The writer of Hebrews was calling back to psalms 8. Jesus' humanity was exalted, He was given a name above every name etc. It doesn't mean that He was exalted from angel status. The rest of Hebrews shows that He was never an angel.

This is supported further in Matt 13:39 Where Jesus says that "the harvest is the end of the age and the harvesters are angels." Christ is not an angel. Do angels come with Him at the 2nd coming? Yes. They are with Him but they are not Christ. I hope these verses show the clear distinctions in what happens at His return.

Stephen referred to Him as the "Angel" on the mountain because He was the Word, or Spokesman. The Word relayed the commands of the Most High to the Israelites from Sinai. Christ specifically stated that He has _always_ spoke the words that His Father commanded Him to speak(Jhn 8:28, 12:49).

[@technicianbis5250-ig1zd]

Yes he is and his name is Michael the word of God. Both are defenders of Jerusalem. When Michael is mentioned the Word is not, when the Word is mentioned Michael is not. Michael literally translates to one who is like God, who else is "like God" but Jesus and both sit at the right hand of God.

SAR was used for Jesus in ISA 9:6 and the hebrew word for SAR means PATRON ANGEL - SAR that can RAISE UP THE DEAD - Dan 12:1-2 and same SAR that STAND UP for GOD's people - Dan 12:1 and Micah 5:4

Hebrews 1:4 So he has become better than the angels: In this letter, Paul frequently uses the word “better” to emphasize the superiority of the Christian way of worship. (See “Introduction to Hebrews.”) Jesus became “better than the angels” because of a name that he inherited. That “name” stood for the great authority that Jehovah gave him. (See study note on Php 2:9.) Jehovah made Jesus “heir of all things.” (Heb 1:2 and study note) He also appointed his Son​-not any of the angels​-to be a king, an apostle, and a high priest in the manner of Melchizedek. (Heb 1:8; 3:1; 5:8-10; 7:1-3; compare Re 11:15.) What is more, Jesus alone was offered up as a ransom sacrifice “once for all time.”​-Heb 1:3; 9:28. Hebrews 1:5, 6 - God NEVER said to any of the angels that any of them were His Son and let all God's angels do obeisance or bow down to him- ALL of God's angels..including Michael!!!

I’m so surprised to hear you say it’s not a salvation issue, if being the arch angel Michael makes Jesus a created being? John 1.1 I realise that there are references to the Angel of the Lord in the OT that we are to understand as theophanies, and the Israelites also understood this, so it’s not just about Jesus, in a sense. I remember Michael Heiser saying the Israelites had the sense of there being 2 Yahwehs for this reason. They knew God could interact with them as the Angel of the Lord, but this method was still an encounter with God. Progress towards our concept of the trinity Thanks for gathering all the refs together for us -v helpful - but I’m still searching for something I cam across yesterday that seemed to use Michael as a metaphor for leader. It said something like Jesus as Michael of the Angels. But not that he was Michael. It was a comparison, a bit like God saying to Moses that Aaron would be Moses and Moses would be as God to pharaoh. That type of thing. Does anyone know where that is? I can’t find where I saw it, infuriatingly! I thought ‘ooh I wonder whether this is was made the JWs believe Michael and Jesus are the same?’

[@armofficialvlog8266]

Why Jacob said that he saw God face to face and didn't surely die after he wrestled with him and blessed him?. Genesis 32:24-30) This same God was called angel ( Hoea 12:4). Angel of the Lord told to Samson's parents later Manoah feared to die because they saw God( angel of the Lord) Judges 13: 13-22. Why angel of the Lord called God then? Angel of the Lord met Moses in mount of the God , the Horeb with a fire burning bush but didn't consumed it and didn't even tell his name while asking for his name by Moses like he didn't tell to Jacob his name , From burning bush God commanded Moses to take off his wearing sandals ( Exodus 3:1-6 This same angel faced to Joshua with sword in his hand as captain of angels , and Joshua worshipped him later he commanded Joshua to take off sandals like same happened to Moses in wilderness, in Horeb( Joshua 5:13-15. There are different names used to Jesus in Bible: Jesus called Immanuel ( Isaiah 7:14) His name "Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting, Father, the Prince of Peace"( Isaiah 9:6) Messiah,the prince ( Daniel 9:25) Michael, the great prince ( Daniel 12:1) "And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Sata;.." ,"Angel of the Lord." (Zechariah 3:2,6) This Lord called " ... Michael the archangel..but said , Lord rebuke thee." ( Jude 9) If archangel was just a created being an angel then why Paul campare him as Lord , God , Christ " For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with bthe voice of an archangel, and with the trump of God : and the dead in Christ shall rise first : ( 1Thessalonians 4:16) Angels voice cant give life to dead human being except Jesus , the God. Jesus also called himself Son of Man ,and can forgive sin but John John called him the only begotten of God'( John 1:14) And there was warcin heaven; Michael and his angels fought against the dragon...and his angels ( Revelation12 :7). But in Hebrew 1:6 said," ... angels of God worship him." Therefore angel of the Lord is Michael, the great prince, Messiah, the prince, the prince of peace.

There is nothing mysterious about Christ's origins. He is the Word. He is God. He is not Michael.

[@FishermensCorner]

@theeternalsbeliever1779 .... ah, Jesus literally eluded the devil hence his birth. For get that obvious part, here's one that eludes you: The Prophecy of the Messiah. It turned outto be two "Prophets" in 1 person. Before Jesus came the Israelites were waiting for the Messiah Ben Yosef and the Messiah Ben David... however what we found out is Jesus represents Messiah Ben Yosef and his first coming and then when he returns it would be the Messiah Ben David... so yeah, the way the prophecy was fulfilled was definitely a mystery.... as for Michael, it's a simple matter of character typology and recognizing the power of god. Strangely enough, Angel is going to return an exact vengeance, which is the character type of Messiah Ben David... literally a lamb nor is he literally an angel, but the power of Vengeance when he returns in his second coming is described by the character of Michael the Archangel.

Hey brother this was a Great Video. But theres one thing u said at the end of your video when u said that its not a salvation issue if someone believes that Michael the archangel is Jesus. I would disagree with u there bro. It is a salvation issue cuz if u believe that Jesus is created and an angel then u dont believe Hes the One True begotten Son of God and that means u dont believe in the True Diety of Jesus Christ. So why would you say its not heresy and not a salavtion issue if a cult takes away from the Diety of who Jesus is and says that Jesus is an angel and not the Son of God? We cant be saved unless we believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Looking forward to your response. Bless u bro.

I don’t know why this is a hard thing to acknowledge for some people.

[@Chillbear47]

Also notice how the text specifies an archangel, not multiple ones…

[@BasicBiblicalTruth]

In 1Thes 4, Paul is alluding to Psalm 47 where Jehovah God (Jesus) ascends to sit on his throne as King of kings and Lord of lords. The scene is that of an emperor coming to a city. He is preceded by the cry of a high-ranking official and the blast of a trumpet. Paul takes up the imagery from Psalm 47 and says that when Jehovah Jesus descends to earth he will be preceded by the shout of an archangel (possibly Michael) and the blast of a trumpet (cf. 1Co 15:52). The shout of the archangel is a command for people to respond. The command (κελεύσματι) is in apposition to ἐν φωνῇ ἀρχαγγέλου καὶ ἐν σάλπιγγι Θεοῦ (the voice of an archangel and God’s trumpet). In other words, this command is expressed in the shout of an archangel and the blowing of a trumpet. The loyal subjects of the King (Jehovah Jesus) come out of the city to receive their King (“meet the Lord in the air”) and they respond to the initiation of the high official (archangel) with their own shouts as they receive their King (cf. Psalm 47). Nowhere in this verse is Jesus identified as an archangel, let alone the archangel Michael (ps. there is more than one archangel-Dan 10:13). The archangel acts like the Sergeant at Arms walking into the House of Representatives and loudly proclaiming, "MR. SPEAKER, THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES." The Sergeant at Arms announces the coming of the President, just as the archangel announces the coming of someone monumentally greater than the President of the United States-the King of kings, and Lord of lords. This imagery would be readily understood by 1st-century ears since this is how visiting dignitaries were introduced to cities. Jesus said, “Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other” (Matt. 24:30-31 ESV). Angels will be present with Jesus. 1Thes 4:16 only mentions one particular angel among the many, the archangel who announces the coming King-Jehovah Jesus. Finally, Hebrews 1 emphatically denies that Jesus is an angel in its contrast between the Son and angels. The author asks the rhetorical question, “to which of the angels has he ever said…?” The answer is none! Jesus isn’t an angel. ** Voice of the archangel - cf. the throne scene in Rev 5 where a mighty angel proclaims with “a loud voice, ‘Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?’” The mighty angel addresses the universe on behalf of the King who sits on the throne. ** JWs will object to me translating Κυριος as Jehovah, but Jesus is clearly identified as Jehovah in the NT.

[@JosephSmith-ph4xr]

Why does he descend with the voice of an archangel and not the voice of God? The Lord referred to in Jude 9 is the same Lord in verse 5 who saved the people out of Egypt, (YHWH). Before the death of the late Queen, Prince Charles was just one of the royal Princes, but all knew he was the heir.The argument that Michael is just one of many Chief princes is specious. I gave up at this point. I have always found it somewhat ridiculous that many Christians in an attempt to prove that Jesus pre-existed, claim he is the Angel of the Lord in the OT. Apparently he can be the Angel of the Lord but not the archangel.

I find it very interesting in this sense, Jesus not only compares himself to God and Michael but also to Lucifer. Jesus makes reference to being the Alpha and Omega and only God is the Alpha and Omega. Jesus makes reference to being Michael, in the sense who is like God and with the voice and shout of the Archangel and defender of man. And then states he is the bright morning star which is reference to Lucifer. And then states he is the descendent of David which makes it impossible to be God as God is not descended from any man, nor is God a man.

@iThinkBiblically Why would Jesus make himself equal with God but then state he is descendent of David. There is too many inconsistencies. So "Who is like God" only Michael and then Lucifer means light, so Isaiah making reference to Lucifer as the bright morning star does not infer mockery. Its what Lucifers actions that are mocked "stating he towered and ascended the heights and then has fallen". And Jesus states he purchased the keys to hell!!!

[@coreyevans9543]

@FishermensCorner KZbin isn't letting me post under the original discussion. Not sure if you have seen my response. Your objection appears to be grounded in Isaiah 43:11: Isaiah 43:11 (ESV) "I, I am the Lord, and besides me there is no savior." The Hebrew word for "savior" here is "yasha." If I understand correctly, your argument is that since God declares there is no other savior besides Him, anyone referred to as a savior must, therefore, be YHWH. This leads to the conclusion that Jesus, being called a savior, is YHWH. However, examining other instances of "yasha" in the scriptures, we see: Judges 3:9 "But when the people of Israel cried out to the Lord, the Lord raised up a savior for the people of Israel, who saved them, Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother." Judges 3:15 "Then the people of Israel cried out to the Lord, and the Lord raised up for them a savior, Ehud, the son of Gera, the Benjaminite, a left-handed man. The people of Israel sent tribute by him to Eglon the king of Moab." The critical point here is that God raises up saviors as His instruments of salvation. Figures such as Moses, Gideon, Othniel, Ehud, Tola (Judges 10), Samson, and ultimately Jesus of Nazareth are all designated as saviors, "yasha," because they are divinely empowered agents through whom God delivers His people. Without God's empowerment, their acts of salvation would not be possible. Thus, while God alone is the ultimate savior, He operates through chosen individuals who, by His empowerment, can be called saviors. If you disagree with this perspective, the logical implication of your argument would necessitate that figures like Othniel and Ehud, who are also called saviors, must be YHWH. Would you then affirm that these judges are YHWH?

Using Hebrews in this way is not so simple! Jesus is called a Malach in Malachi 3. Sadly the translators call him "the Messenger of the Covenant", if being consistent it should say "the Angel of the Covenant". As much as we could say we shall not worship man, we know the context and allow the worship of Jesus because we don't apply that context to him. Same should be with malachim, we don't worship angels, however there is one who is uniquely uncreated but is a Messenger in a whole different way. If Messiah is a Malach, the I hope that He is the arch (chief) - Malach. Just because of pictures of wings and John Travolta, we must not allow our views of malachim/angelos to be affected by cultural stereotypes. We need to ask where did Paul get the idea of the Head Messenger's voice awakening the dead, surely this is from a first century Jewish view of the Messenger of the LORD being the Logos and that Jesus' voice in John is the one that awakens the dead.

The angels belong to him Michael (Rev 12:1) and the angels belong to Jesus (Matt 16:27) The angels belong to one and the same person 4. He Michael appears to Joshua (Joshua 5:13-15) and is worshipped, only God accepts worship not angels. 5. Daniel 10 describes him has the echad or preeminent prince and he is your prince. None other is described this way. 6. Daniel 12 says that Michael is the protector and savior of the righteous people. This is the role and work of Jesus Christ himself. None other but him. 7. In Jude Michael resurrects Moses and takes him to heaven. Only God has this ability. Not angels. 8. 1 Thess 4 When Jesus returns he returns with the voice of the archangel 9. What we should learn about him from this is that Jesus is ever active and ever present. His active love was demonstrated even before the cross.

The point you're missing is that Jesus had a pre- human existence as Michael or the "Word" It was not until Jesus was born was there any mention of Jesus.
