    : "That's like saying that elders aren't publishers, isn't it?"

    Um. Perhaps to you. But... no... it's not.

    Let's go simpler this time.

    God NEVER said to any angel, "sit at my right hand until I make your enemies into a footstool for you". (Heb 1:13)

    God DID say to Jesus, "sit at my right hand until I make your enemies into a footstool for you". (Mt 22:42-44)

    Even simpler:

    God NEVER said "X" to any angel. God DID say "X" to Jesus.

    This (biblical) assertion can only be true if Jesus is NOT an angel.

    It's called logic. You should try it sometime.

    Peace.

    it's Good News, authentic truth always is, right?

    Consider this, every single commentary on Hebrews makes it clear that Chapter 1 is a refute of any view that Jesus was an angel at any point in time.

    Even the commentaries they have at the WT HQ, *gasp* !

    Of couse if one wants to play the "interpretive passage to suit us" game, I guess that IF Jesus can be Michael, by the very same "reasoning" ( Selctive interpretation of selective passages), Jesus is part of the Trinity.

    So there, we are all happy and we are all right !

    * and there was much rejoicing in the village*

    either a Trinity (using the spurious 1 John 5:7 addition), or a trinity (using John 17:11).

    or a red herring using either
