Jehovahs Witnesses deny the deity of Christ and believe that the Holy Spirit is just an ephemeral power of God’s and not His own person as part of the trinity. To them, Jesus is just another created being. This lecture is pointing out that the language used in scripture would actually point that Michael is just Jesus before He became a man and He held the title of “Archangel” in Heaven which just means “Leader of the Angels”. The name Michael means “That which is what God is”. It is very common for someone to have many different names in Heaven depending on the circumstances surrounding them at the time. The attributes attributed to Michael in scripture are only ever attributed to Christ and since He has the power, it’s not a far leap to make the conclusion that Michael is just another one of His names, just like another name is Emmanuel.
