Is the Michael - Jesus connection only a WTS/ JW (WatchTower and Tract Society / Jehovah's Witnesses) doctrine / teaching? Did such originate with them, or have they merely altered a previously held church doctrine that had been held throughout the times of this world?​

​

Is it blasphemous to teach that Michael is the pre-incarnate (in human flesh) Son of the Father (aka, Jesus)?​

​

Does this teaching mean that a person is automatically saying that the Son of the Father (Jesus) is a created being and finite, or is that simply an incorrect assumption / accusation without foundation?​

​

What does the name / designation "Michael the archangel" even mean?​

​

What does the word "angel" in Hebrew, koine Greek and English even mean? Does it define nature, or rather office / position / function?​

​

What does the name / designation "Jesus" even mean?​

​

Did the Son of the Father exist before the creation of this world (earth), and if so according to scripture, what was His name / designation?​

​

Does the Son of the Father have many names, titles, designations, offices in scripture? If so, do they ever conflict with one another?​

​

Does Michael ever bring deliverance or salvation in the contexts in which this personage is mentioned?​

​

What did many of the church theologians, and later Reformers, like Luther, Melanchthon, Hengstenberg, and others teach and believe, and why was it important to them?​

As always, please feel free to comment, ask questions, participate in discussion, engage in prayerful bible study together! Take the time to follow scriptural counsel and read the material before entering into conversation, Pro. 18:13,17, and come to listen to what is being presented, as in Job, before speaking. There is no need to rush into anything when discussing such weighty matters. Better to ask clarifying questions, and listen to one another, and then go to the Bible together.
