OK, then is Christ Jesus ever designated "Angel" or "Messenger" or "Prince", etc, in Scripture according to that
particular source [Nave's]?
Nave's says, 'Yes':
"Angel (holy trinity)

Would you agree that this source Nave's does clearly detail that Christ Jesus is designated as "Angel" in the scriptures, not as a created being, but the Uncreated Creator, God the Son?
Would you agree that those things reference the "Angel" that went before them, in the pillar of Cloud/Fire, which the Scripture also calls LORD?

Jesus continued - Nave's Topical Bible Concordance Online
If we sought further in that source, do you think that we would find that Jesus is designated the ruler/guardian over Israel? Do you think that we would find that He is the one that stands as mediator for his people?
Would you agree then to this source for this information as cited?
Truly, Who is like unto God, the Highest Messenger?
Is there then anything about another "prince" that seeks to usurp Christ's place?
