Who is MICHAEL ARCHANGELaccording to the Word of GOD?
Why do I, and others, including respected, even well-known protestant Bible commentators believe that the scriptures clearly reveal HIM to be none other than CHRIST JESUS HIMSELF before HIS coming to this earth in which he then clothed His divinity with humanity?
Does this mean that CHRIST JESUS is somehow notGOD THE SON [the ETERNAL SELF-EXISTANT ONE, HE in whom is LIFE, unborrowed, underived, uncreated]?
No, in no way.
Please understand, that this study in no way degrades the Deity, Divinity [GODHEAD] of CHRIST JESUS, but rather it reveals that HE has always been the True and Ever-Living GOD who has ever taken a personal interest in us and battled for Truth and Life.
Please continue with me as we look into the Scriptures upon this subject. Also please know that this subject is meatier than a great deal of subjects and takes some time to go through, and some have a more difficult time with it than others, for there are a great many misconceptions out there on it, but we shall look at what even the great protestant scholars believed and wrote.
Why is it important to know?
This subject touches upon the Great Controversy between CHRIST JESUS and Satan that has been ongoing even until now, and soon to come to an end...
Let us see this Great Controversy:
Notice this unbreakable [John 10:35] structure of identification:
The Great Controversy, The Cosmic Conflict:
[War in Heaven]
[JESUS] "Michael" [Revelation 12:7;p]
[Satan] "Dragon" [Revelation 12:7;p]
[continued in the Garden of Eden]
[JESUS] "blood of the lamb" [Revelation 12:11;p] being that "lamb slain from the foundation of the world" [Revelation 13:8;p; see Genesis 3:21, 4:4, etc]
[Satan] "that old serpent" [Revelation 12:9;p, 12:14-15, 20:2; see Genesis 3:1,2,4,13,14]
[continued in the Earth]
[JESUS] "brought forth the man [child]" [Revelation 12:13;p]
[Satan] "cast out into the earth" [Revelation 12:9;p], "the devil is come down" [Revelation 12:12;p]
[continued in the Wilderness Temptations and Ministry]
[JESUS] "his Christ" [Revelation 12:10;p]
[Satan] "called the Devil" [Revelation 12:9;p] and "Satan" [Revelation 12:9;p] and "Being forty days tempted of the devil" [Luke 4:2, etc]
[continued at The Cross]
[JESUS] "the power of his Christ" [Revelation 12:10;p]
[Satan] "the accuser of our brethren is cast down" [Revelation 12:10;p]
[continued from then even until to this day...]
[JESUS/Followers] "remnant of her seed" [Revelation 12:17;p; see also "the seed" Genesis 3:15; Galatians 3:16 and also Acts 9:4-5, 22:7-8, 26:14-15]
[Satan/Followers] "the dragon was wroth" [Revelation 12:17;p], "face of the serpent" [Revelation 12:14;p]; "the serpent" [Revelation 12:15;p]
[who is like unto these?]
JESUS/MICHAEL: "Who is like unto God?" [Exodus 15:11; 1 Kings 8:23; Psalms 71:19; see also Deuteronomy 33:26; 2 Chronicles 6:14; Job 36:22; Psalms 35:10, 86:8, 89:8, 113:5; Jeremiah 10:6-7; Micah 7:18]
Satan behind the power: "Who [is] like unto the beast?" [Revelation 13:4;p] [in this Revelation, there is an unholy 'trinity', the Dragon [Satan] takes the place of the Father, the 1st Beast takes the place of the Son [Greek]“Anti-Christos” or [Latin]“Vicarius Christi”, and the 2nd Beast [aka, False Prophet, Harlot Daughters] takes the place of the Holy Spirit, causing fire to come down, it is a false and lying spirit, performs miracles, causes the deadly wound to be healed on the 1st Beast, a copy of the resurrection of Son, dying and yet coming to life again, etc]
[the whole world will wonder after one or the other]
JESUS/MICHAEL: "...behold, the world is gone after him." [John 12:19;p]
Satan behind the Beast:"...all the world wondered after the beast." [Revelation 13:3;p]; “But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians [shall be] at his steps.” [Daniel 11:43]
[The Great Controversy; War]
JESUS/MICHAEL: “The LORD [is] a man of war: the LORD [is] his name.” [Exodus 15:3]; “The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.” [Isaiah 42:13]; “Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?” [Luke 14:32]; “...the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him [are] called, and chosen, and faithful.” [Revelation 17:14;p]; “And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him [was] called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.” [Revelation 19:11]
Satan behind the Beast: “...who is able to make war with him?” [Revelation 13:4;p]; “...These shall make war with the Lamb ...” [Revelation 17:14;p]; “And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.” [Revelation 19:19]
Look again at Daniel 12:1 and see in the very New Testament Jesus own words, and see in the Days of Noah [Noe], the time when Probation for this world, and the Mercy and Grace of God are spurned for the last time, God will close the door of Probation for all time, and none more can ever again be saved, and those outside will be lost, though they will know it not, until it come suddenly upon them, and then they will say, “Lord, Lord... open unto us...”, and the most dreaded words will be heard, “I know thee not...”:
And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation [even] to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. Daniel 12:1
When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: Luke 13:25
But as the days of Noe [were], so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Matthew 24:37
And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. Luke 17:26
The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. Genesis 6:11
And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. Genesis 6:12
And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth. Genesis 6:13
“But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark...” Genesis 6:18;p
And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. Genesis 7:1
“...as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.” Genesis 7:16;p
I say, to all who read, get into the Ark, which is built of God... and remain there. This Ark is going through to the Kingdom... for God Himself will seal us in...
So, who is MICHAEL according to the very texts themselves?
It is none other than JESUS, GOD the SON, Uncreated Creator of Heaven and Earth and the Sea and all that in them is.
How so, one may say? Notice the contrasting titles and names for either Jesus or Satan, for Revelation 12 seals the matter, permanently, but let us also consider many other texts so that there is no doubt whatsoever. ..."
