Angels are created beings. Jesus is not a created being unless of course you are taking the JW position of Colossians 1, Rev 3:14 to butcher the text and claim the He was created.We read that Michael and his angels fought against the dragon and his angels, and the dragon was cast down. The fight is going on every day. Michael is the Lord Jesus, the only Archangel.”
Spurgeon's own words from the other post.................................
Michael is the Lord Jesus,the only Archangel
Hebrews 1:7 “And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.”
Hebrews 1:14 “Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?”
Jesus, when He came in the flesh-Phil 2:6-11- was "made a little lower than the angels" Psalm 8:5, Hebrews 2:7. You can't be made lower than the angels AND be an angel at the same time.
1 Thess 4 does not say that Jesus is Michael. It says the VOICE of the archangel. If Jesus uses the voice of the archangel makes him Michael, then having the trump of God makes the trumpet God.
Furthermore:
"For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?" Hebrews 1:5
When John bowed to the angel to worship him, the angel said "see thou DO IT NOT" Revelation 19:10, because angels are not to be worshiped and that would include Michael. Yet all of the angels in heaven worship Jesus. "Let all of the ANGELS of God worship HIM" Heb 1:6
Revelation 19:12 shows that when He returns, that Christ will have a name that NOBODY ELSE KNOWS but HE HIMSELF. If his name was "Michael", that would be a complete contradiction to Rev 19:12
The Bible never refers to Michael as a Son. Hebrews 1:5 makes it perfectly and specifically clear that NO ANGEL has ever been referred to as the SON of God. No angel has ever been begotten of the Father.
This is a blatant Jehovah's Witness doctrine:
""The foremost angel, both in power and authority, is the archangel, Jesus Christ, also called Michael." -The Watchtower, November 1, 1995, p. 8"
Referring to Jesus as a created angel is blasphemous, and you are by no means a Christian if this is your view of Christ.
