Where does it say Jesus is Michael!
“At that time Michael shall stand up, The great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people Dan.12:1
But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia. Dan.10:13
Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”Jude 9
Jesus is not a prince: These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.” Revelation 17:14
Jesus is not an angel He is God in the flesh!
In Jude 9 michael did not rebuke the devil. Michael said,"The Lord rebuke you!
Jesus told the devil: Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! Matthew 4:10

Jesus, God and the Holy Ghost are three in one ,hence the Trinity. Jesus was not an angel, He is the Son of God. Why do you think the Jews had him crucified, for saying he was the Son of God? They wouldn't have cared if He said He was an angel.

I'm not giving verses. Look'um up.
Jesus was tiltled the 'Prince of Peace'.
Sure, He is the King of the Kingdom now, but before then what was he?
Like most Kings before they are kings, they were princes.
The princes and kings that will make war with the lamb are the worldly kings and princes of the earth.
I also noticed,---you screwed up your Matthew 4:10 quote.
Jesus is telling Satan to leave, to go away, not sentencing him as you are implying.

> Hey, Jehovah's Witnesses is Jesus Michael the archangel?
So says the bible.
Gal 4:14 but received me as an angel of God, [even] as Christ Jesus.
1Th 4:16 = Lord is archangel
1Th 4:16 For the "Lord" himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the "archangel"
Arch = Chief over
Angel = Messenger
Archangel = Chief over all other Messengers.
Jud 1:9 = Micheal is then Lord, and Chief over all other angels.
Who is Lord? 1 Cr 8:6 - and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we by him.

"And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels battled." -- Revelation 12:7 => Thus, Michael is the Leader of an army of faithful angels.
Revelation also describes Jesus as the Leader of an army of faithful angels.
"Also, the armies that were in heaven were following him on white horses, and they were clothed in white, clean, fine linen. And out of his mouth there protrudes a sharp long sword, that he may strike the nations with it, and he will shepherd them with a rod of iron. He treads too the winepress of the anger of the wrath of God the Almighty. And upon his outer garment, even upon his thigh, he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords." -- Revelation 19:14-16
The apostle Paul specifically mentions “the Lord Jesus” and “his powerful angels.”
"... YOU who suffer tribulation, relief along with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his powerful angels." -- 2 Thessalonians 1:7
"For the Son of man is destined to come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will recompense each one according to his behavior." -- Matthew 16:27

The Messiah is NOT God in the flesh, God was still on his heavenly throne distinct from Him while he was on earth and John sees the 2 of them sperate from each other in his vision of the highest heaven....JW's are a deluded cult, do you that the founder of JW's was a satanist? Yes a high ranking warlock who participated in the sickest of satanic rituals and a 33' freemason which means his alliegance was to lucifer!

The bible certainly does teach that Jesus is a prince.
(Isaiah 9:6) For there has been a child born to us, there has been a son given to us; and the princely rule will come to be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, ...Prince of Peace.
Related to Jude 9... Do the Scriptures themselves ever show Jesus rebuking Satan, even one time? Or does Jesus allow the Father to "make the reply"?
(Proverbs 27:11) Be wise, my son, and make my heart rejoice, that I [!] may make a reply to him that is taunting me.
(Matthew 4:1-4) Jesus was led by the spirit up into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil. ...the Tempter came and said to him: “If you are a son of God, tell these stones to become loaves of bread.” But in reply he said: “It is written [by God]...
(Matthew 4:5-7) Then the Devil took [Jesus] along... and said to him: “If you are a son of God, hurl yourself down... Jesus said to him: “Again it is written [by God]...
(Matthew 4:8-11) Again the Devil took [Jesus] along to an unusually high mountain... and he said to him: “All these things I will give you if you fall down and do an act of worship to me.” Then Jesus said to him: “Go away, Satan! For it is written [by God]...
Plainly, the bible speaks of Jesus in divine glory and honor, but plainly notes that Jesus RECEIVES his appointment from Jehovah God the Father. Jehovah God is the source of Christ's authority, so that Jesus at some point after his origination becomes "better than the angels".
(Hebrews 1:3-4) [Jesus] sat down on the right hand of the Majesty in lofty places. 4 So he HAS BECOME better than the angels [caps added]
(Matthew 28:18) And Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: "All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth.
(Acts 2:36) God made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you impaled.
(John 3:35) The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand.
(Acts 5:31) God exalted this one as Chief Agent and Savior to his right hand
(Psalm 2:2-6) The kings of earth take their stand And high officials themselves have massed together as one Against Jehovah and against his anointed one... Jehovah himself will hold them in derision..., Saying: "I, even I, have installed my king [Jesus]
Such a "king" is not the peer of his subjects, and clearly, an "archangel" is not the peer of mere angels.
Christendom has pretended that Gabriel is also an archangel, and that Satan had been; both ideas have no foundation in Scripture. Some religions invent names for four or five additional supposed "archangels"; those invented names have no foundation in Scripture. "Archangel" actually means "Chief of the Angels"; the fact remains that the bible itself speaks of only one single solitary archangel. The Scriptures never use the term "archangel" in the plural, but only in the singular.
Who is a better person than Jesus to be the single "Chief" of all faithful angels? Of whom can it be said that faithful angels belong to him, or are "his"?
2 Thes 1:7 Lord Jesus from heaven with his powerful angels
Rev 12:7 Michael and his angels battled
The bible certainly teaches that the archangel Michael is the same person as Jesus.
Note that Jesus the Lord calls with an archangel's voice:
1 Thes 4:14-16 Jesus died and rose again, so, too... the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel's voice
Do two different persons present themselves during a time of "distress" such as has "not occurred" before?
Dan 12:1 And during that time Michael will stand up, the great prince who is standing in behalf of the sons of your people. And there will certainly occur a time of distress such as has not been made to occur since there came to be a nation until that time.
Matt 24:3-21 Disciples [asked Jesus] what will be the sign of your presence...?" And in answer Jesus said to them: "...All these things are a beginning of pangs of distress. ...for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world's beginning until now
Do two different persons both lead the heavenly armies?
Rev 19:13,14 [Jesus] is The Word of God. Also, the armies that were in heaven were following him
Rev 12:7 And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels battled
Once you study it, the bible really teaches that Michael is another name for Jesus. Though the term may confuse some, Jesus can properly be called an "archangel" or an "angel" (though not a mere angel) or a "son of God" or a "morning star" (though not a mere 'morning star'). Interestingly, the Scriptures refer to *ALL* angelic spirit creatures as "morning stars" (not just Jesus or Lucifer). Note that the archangel Jesus is uniquely elevated above mere angels by the title "the BRIGHT morning star".
Job 38:4,7 When [Jehovah] founded the earth... When the morning stars [or "angels"] joyfully cried out together, And all the sons of God began shouting in applause
Rev 22:16 I, Jesus... I am the root and the offspring of David, and the BRIGHT morning star. [caps added]
