Archangel

We update studies as the Lord Jesus leads us. You can find the latest update of this study at ChurchAges.net

In the beginning, Lucifer was the main angel. He was lifted up with pride due to his many talents. He thought he could take God’s place but he fell from Heaven. He also fell from being the top angel and became a lower species, the Devil. There is no such thing as a “fallen angel”. When an angel falls it changes and becomes a demon or devil.

God made an angelic Body for Himself and called Himself the archangel, Michael.

There is only one archangel.

Michael means Who is like God? Nobody, other than God Himself.

There are only two references to an Archangel.

He is involved with resurrecting Moses from the dead and is called Michael.

JUDE 1:9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

The archangel produces a resurrection from the dead. Satan had not yet been conquered at Calvary, thus he ruled the dead. God exercised His superior muscle and “took” Moses back from the dead so that he could appear with Elijah on the Mount of Transfiguration.

I THESSALONIANS 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

The voice of the Archangel raises the New Testament dead in the resurrection. This is the mighty Angel of Revelation Chapter 10.

The shout comes from the Bride when they finally learn to be Scriptural by proving brother Branham’s Message from Scripture.

62-1111E WHY I'M AGAINST ORGANIZED RELIGION

“After the Message of "Come out of her!" "After these things," watch, "is the shout of the Bride saints, with the Bridegroom, going to the Marriage of the Lamb."

1965-1127 I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE

“Dear God, in this solemn moment, it's going to be a time like this when there really will be a clap of thunder someday, and the Son of God shall descend from the heavens with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and the trump of God, the dead in Christ shall rise”.

One month before he died and brother Branham was still waiting for the shout.

It was not enough for him to be Scriptural. That did not produce the Rapture.

The Bride has to prove his Message from Scripture until we become Scriptural. When we only speak from the Bible that we are able to understand, that will be the shout that brings the Archangel down from Heaven to raise the dead in Revelation Chapter 10.

Michael is the great Prince of the Jews.

DANIEL 10:21 But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.

DANIEL 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people:

But Messiah is the Prince of the Jews.

DANIEL 9:25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince ...

Jesus is God in the form of a Human. Michael is God in the form of an Angel.

DANIEL 9:26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; ...

The Romans cut off Jesus by crucifying Him. The Romans are thus the people of the Prince that will come who will be the final Pope that rules the world.

Thus, there is another great Prince that will come from Rome because Rome destroyed the Jewish Temple and the city of Jerusalem in AD 70.

There are two great or chief Princes. God in His body of the archangel Who is called Michael and Satan who will enter into the body of the final Pope.

DANIEL 10:13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.

God as the Archangel Michael, is the chief Prince for good. Satan in the body of the final Pope is the other chief Prince. The epitome of the man of sin.

Michael and Satan are the two chief Princes.

We have to decide who we will serve. Michael is waiting for us to be Scriptural. When we learn to “shout” out the Scriptures by returning to the beliefs of the early church, then Michael the Archangel will come down to perform the Voice of the Resurrection of the Dead.

Satan spends his time making sure that we are not restored to being Scriptural like the early church was. Satan will make us different from the early church.

The seed that is harvested and pulled off the Earth in the Rapture has to be the same as the apostolic seed that was planted in the first church age.

REVELATION 1:11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: ...

Jesus will come when the last church age believes the same as the first church age of the apostles.

REVELATION 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

When the last church age is restored back to the beliefs of the first church age then Jesus, as the Archangel Michael, kicks Satan out of Heaven so that Jesus can come down to Earth to take His cleansed and Scriptural Bride up to Heaven. Satan will then enter the final Pope for the 3½ years of great Tribulation.

Gabriel is an ordinary angel but an important angel in terms of carrying messages from the throne of God down to earth.

Hope this makes some kind of sense.

I have tried to link up all the Scriptures that refer to Michael and the archangel.
