"Are angels eternal, or were they created?" Angels were created by God. Therefore, they had a beginning. Learn about them at http://ow.ly/v7vR50MCLZZ |

OLAADEGBU: [b]Whose voice resurrects the dead? 1 Thessalonians 4:16 & John 5:28, confirmed it's Jesus Christ. Who is the Serpent? Satan is the original serpent.Genesis 3:15, Revelation 12:7-9 Who defeated the original Serpent? Genesis 3:15, Revelation 12:7-9 & 1 John 3:8 confirmed it's Jesus Christ. Who is the leader of angels to battle & victory? Daniel 10:13, Matthew 25:31, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 , Revelation 12:7-9 & 1 John 3:8 confirmed it's Jesus Christ. What about Jude 1:9? An angel made the statement copied from Zechariah 3:2 saying "Jehovah rebuke you". The New Testament translators removed the Tetragramatton "YHWH" Jehovah (God the Father of Jesus) and put "Lord" @ Jude1:9 to deceive Christendom sheeples. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() @ Zechariah 3:2 & Jude1:9, an angel says "Jehovah rebuke Satan" using God's word in the same manner Jesus used Matthew 4:10 he quoted from Deuteronomy 6:13 to rebuke Satan Christendom is familiar with the truth that Jesus Christ is archangel Michael.

My brother Janosky has done justice to this so humbly request a free home Bible study from one of Jehovah's Witnesses because you need to know about Archangel Michael the spirit being in charge of the organization of God's people today {Daniel 12:1-3} he has always been the leader of God's heavenly armies {Revelations 12:7} so when you see JWs actively preaching zealously and industriously teaching throughout the world know that it's Michael who is leading this vast army leading us to victory! Psalms 110:1-3 May you have PEACE! ![]() 2 Likes |

Not a single place in scripture is a relationship — direct or indirect — drawn between the character that is Micheal, and the person of Jesus Christ. ![]() A. The mention of Michael in Daniel 10 has him fighting against human enemies. The vision is recorded to have taken place during the third year that Cyrus was the king of Persia, meaning the prince of Persia at the time was likely the son of Cyrus, the commander of the Persian army, and we happen to know that God specially selected his father, Cyrus, for the work that He, God, had him do on behalf of Israel - Isaiah 45. ![]() 10 Then a hand touched me. When that happened, I got on my hands and knees. I was so afraid that I was shaking.So, this story about Michael standing with another against evil angels.... what evil angels if not men? It is likely that Michael was at the time a prince of Israel who advocated on behalf of his people during their years in exile. ![]() B. In Daniel 12, we briefly record the mention of Michael again, 1. “Daniel, at that time the great prince Michael will stand up. Michael is in charge of your people. There will be a time of much trouble, the worst time since nations have been on earth. But Daniel, [b]at that time every one of your people whose name is found written in the book of life will be saved. [/b]In verse 1 alone we find referenced two different points in time - a time when Michael will stand up for the people, and another time when the troubles of the people would be much worse than it has been since the beginning, meaning a time coming after Michael's period is over. And the story continues on from that second point in time. if time is able to continue past him, then surely, he cannot be the savior even of Israel. ![]() C. Then we have the entry in Jude where Michael is claimed to have argued with the devil regarding the body of Moses. What is curious about this is that Jude compares humans — those who reject God's authority — to the one who he calls an archangel, how come? ![]() 8 It is the same way with these people who have entered your group. They are guided by dreams. They make themselves dirty with sin. They reject God’s authority and say bad things against the glorious ones.Why did Jude compare those who reject the authority of God to Michael, and in past tense, mind you? ![]() D. Then we have the mention of the same character in Revelation 12. Something interesting about the claim made of what Michael and his merry band of angels did is mentioned here. So, according to the tale, there was supposedly this battle in heaven, and Satan was thrown down to earth. Well, guess what, that happened about 2000 years ago when Jesus Christ announced that He saw Satan fall like lightening from the sky. Satan is after all the enemy in the Kingdom of God, and he arrived to 1. And then a great wonder appeared in heaven: There was a woman who was clothed with the sun, and the moon was under her feet. She had a crown of twelve stars on her head.This means whatever "battle" there may have been between Michael and Satan — possibly the same story or similar to that found in Jude — took place over 2000 years ago, this before the people themselves became and began defeating the same Satan by the blood sacrifice of the Lamb and by the message of God. ![]() Yes, Micheal is a character in the past and has nothing to do with Jesus Christ who is the lamb of God and continues to remain so for eternity. ![]() |

1. YHWH is not the Father of Jesus Christ. Instead, YHWH is the name of the Old Covenant Law of Moses — the National Constitution of the Nation of Israel in the land of Canaan — handed by God to the people of Israel from whom He constituted a nation. YHWH is the name of the agreement, just as Jesus Christ is the name of the agreement God made with the people of Israel promising to make a Kingdom of Priests of them — in the Kingdom of God. ![]() 2. In Zechariah 3, Zechariah had a vision of interest which some seem confused about here. ![]() 1. The angel showed me Joshua the high priest, standing in front of the angel of the Lord and Satan was standing by Joshua’s right side. Satan was there to accuse Joshua of doing wrong.■ The language used by the angel in verse 2 is that of one who is under authority, as he speaks as though at the command of the one who is master over him, the angel. This angel's tone in no one compares to that of Jesus Christ who instead directly rebuked Satan as one who is authority Himself would. Only God has the authority to rebuke His servant, Satan. 10 Jesus said to him, “Get away from me, Satan! The Scriptures say, ‘You must worship the Lord your God. Serve only him!’” ■ Joshua, the high priest, was wearing dirty clothes meaning he was filthy with sin— unrighteous even — and so this was not a saving of an innocent but God Himself intervening, in Joshua's particular case, for His reasons. We see this in verse 4 where it is revealed that the dirty clothes indeed mean Joshua was full of guilt. After which we then see the angel delivering God's very message to Joshua beginning in verse 5. By the way, was Joshua not the same high priest in charge when Zechariah was murdered between the temple and the altar 35 “ So you will be guilty for the death of all the good people who have been killed on earth. You will be guilty for the killing of that godly man Abel. And you will be guilty for the killing of Zechariah[f] son of Berachiah. He was killed between the Temple and the altar. You will be guilty for the killing of all the good people who lived between the time of Abel and the time of Zechariah. Anywho, in summary, the authority of Jesus Christ does not compare to the authority of an angel of God, even as far as the rebuking of Satan is concerned. According to scripture, only God has the power to directly rebuke Satan — not even angels have the authority to do such. ![]() 3. As for what is written in 2 Thessalonians 1, Paul clearly indicates that the one He writes of is King in the Kingdom of God, Jesus Christ, who is written to come with His powerful angels, not to fight battles of any kind as Jesus Christ made it abundantly clear in His teachings that He already overcame the world for the sake of His followers over 2000 years ago. Jesus Christ did state that He would return in the glory of His Kingdom, as King — with all of His angels with Him. ![]() 5 This is proof that God is right in his judgment. He wants you to be worthy of his kingdom. Your suffering is for that kingdom.As for the burning fire Jesus Christ is expected to come with verse 11, we read of Jesus Christ the following from John the Baptist in Luke 3... 16 John’s answer to this was, “I baptize you in water, but there is someone coming later who is able to do more than I can. I am not good enough to be the slave who unties his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.... pretty much what is described by Paul in his letter there, an eternal fire, a destruction that is never ending for eternal damnation. Pretty much what Jesus Christ revealed in His Gospel teaching in the Parable of the Wheat and Tares as well as in Matthew 25 vs 31 - 46. No battles or fighting were indicated anywhere in those contexts, simply punishment for the goats and reward for the sheep in the Kingdom of God. ![]() Again, not a single link between the fabled character of Micheal and Jesus Christ as he remains a mythical past of the people of Israel from the time before Jesus Christ, and remains in that past. Yes, some of the Judaic religion have adopted the character as their patron saint but as God made clear, He did not give them a religion to follow but a Law. ![]() |

OLAADEGBU: What does the Bible teach about Michael the archangel? by Matt Slick | Jan 16, 2023 | Angels, Questions The word 'Michael' occurs 15 times in the Bible and refers to people ten times, with the remaining five referring to Michael the archangel: Daniel 10:13, 21; 12:1; Jude 9, Rev. 12:7. In the NASB, these five references, Michael is called the 'chief prince' in Dan. 10:13, a 'prince' in Dan. 10:21, the 'great prince' in Dan. 12:1, 'archangel' in Jude 9, and simply 'Michael' in Rev. 12:7. So, we know that he is an archangel. The word 'archangel' only occurs twice in the New Testament, 1 Thess. 4:16 and Jude 9. We don't know the precise hierarchical arrangement of angelic majesties and which are more powerful than others. But, an archangel seems to be a chief angel (Dan. 10:13), who is in charge of other angels and appears to have more power and authority. Furthermore, the archangel Michael seems to be a warrior angel since he is referenced as the one doing battle (Dan. 10:13, 21) and is also the one who disputed with the devil over the body of Moses (Jude 9). No other angel in the Bible is referenced as an archangel. The only words spoken by Michael recorded in the Bible are found in Jude 9 when he disputed with the devil over the body of Moses and said, "the Lord rebuke you!"

Michael or no Michael, are you born again? The thief on Calvary and millions of other saints don't need to know the identity of Michael to spend eternity with Jesus Christ. Do you have what they had? Faith in Jesus Christ, repentance from sin, a broken spirit, a clean heart. JW and koboko can sit and argue about words till 2030, do you have the needful? 1 Like |

Recall the parable of the wheat and tares happened to be about the Kingdom of God meaning that even the weeds to be cast into eternal damnation-- unquenchable fire -- are part of the same Kingdom of God that Jesus Christ taught His followers that only those who are born-again can enter into.
