Today was weird I received a random invite on discord to a brand new server by a unitarian youtuber I'd never heard of was one of the first three or four people invited I'm in but am at a loss what to do because it's the pre existence denying faction of unitarians the so called "biblical unitarians" and in literally within the first ten post they're saying JW's christology is just as bad as trinitarians and somehow equally incompatible with the ransom. It's bizarre. Normally I wouldn't mind being on servers where that theology is dominant simply because as repulsive as I find denial of christ preexisting Justin Martyr didn't mind fellowship with a faction of Jewish Christians that were misguided that way on the condition they didn't try to impose the mosaic law on other christians but I'm not happy with the spirit there showing and if it continues much as I watch I'll leave because I'm skeptical of it being fruitful to witness there. Why the hostility everywhere to Michael/angel christology? Even half of modern Arian unitarians are almost grossed out at the notion of Jesus not being a separate being from and above Michael.
Origin: The name Michael is of Hebrew origin and means “who is like God?” or “gift from God.
"And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become so much better than the angels, to the extent that He has inherited a more excellent name than they. But regarding the Son He says, “Your throne, God, is forever and ever, And the scepter of righteousness is the scepter of His kingdom. “You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Jehovah, has anointed You With the oil of joy above Your companions.” Hebrews 1:3-4, 8-9
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life."John 3:16
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:23
“Now at that time Michael, the great prince who stands guard over the sons of your people, will arise. And there will be a time of distress such as never occurred since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the book, will be rescued.
Daniel 12:1
And as He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will again. And if those days had not been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short."Matthew 24:3,21-22
"All who live on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written since the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been slaughtered."
Revelation 13:8
Same tribulation when Michael arise, and when Jesus returns. The bible doesn't talk of another great tribulation. Michael must be Jesus himself. Jehovah is known under different names so Jesus depending on what His mission is :Jesus, Christ, The Word, Michael, The Lamb, The Wisdom.
