I don't understand how people keep saying that the Archangel Michael and Messiah are the same. I don't see it.
Do you know of this belief, is it standard SDA teaching? If so, could you explain it to me, please.

I’m not an SDA, and I can’t remember the details of the whole thesis now, but from what I recall it included the idea that the name Michael meaning “Who is like God”, or even “He that is what God is,” could only belong to the son of God.
There are also many interpretations of various scriptures which construe the apparent great power, and high standing, and the juxtaposition of Michael with Satan, as being presented in terms that could only apply to Yahusha.
I looked into the idea quite a while ago now, and came away feeling unconvinced but not sure in myself what I believe.
As much as there were verses which seemed to make a very plausible case, there were others which clearly seemed to refute it.
I guess it’s time to have another look.
As if I didn’t have enough on my plate. :roll:
Cheers SWMBO! :)

Well, as long as I'm not the only one who's confused, I don't feel so bad. I've always had a hard time believing that satan would dare fight with Messiah over Moses' body. Yahusha would easily kick his ass, imo.

Quite, and in truth I wouldn’t have it any other way :)shewhomustbeobeyed wrote: ↑Tue Dec 05, 2023 9:01 pmLol, you certainly are not the only one.Well, as long as I'm not the only one who's confused, I don't feel so bad.

As I understand it Satan’s point had some merit and needed to be put because Moses was a sinner and as such would have been rightfully claimed by Sheol until the time of the resurrection.
I don’t know of any scriptural reason given for why this was not so.

Satan had a right to to his soul, it seems he got it. But what made him think he had a right to to his corpse? Rather silly, fighting over dead flesh. Unless there was some plan to 'do' something to his body, like a public display or cannibalistic ritual. idkdoginventer wrote: ↑Tue Dec 05, 2023 9:51 pm As I understand it Satan’s point had some merit and needed to be put because Moses was a sinner and as such would have been rightfully claimed by Sheol until the time of the resurrection.

Given the great reverence and the amount of preparation given to the bodies of the righteous dead in scripture I think the body can’t be considered merely meat.
The other thing that occurs to me is that possibly the body was required for the transfiguration, or that it was needed to prepare a translated body for it.

2 And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? ZECHARIAH 3 KJV
