Why do Jehovah Witnesses believe Jesus is Michael?
Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that the Archangel Michael, “the Word” of John 1:1, and wisdom personified in Proverbs 8 refer to Jesus in his pre-human existence and that he resumed these identities after his ascension to heaven following his death and resurrection.

Is Michael the same as Jesus Christ?
Later, at the appointed time, Michael was born to the virgin Mary as a human being, thus ceasing to be an angel. Then after His spiritual resurrection, Jesus resumed His identity as Michael. Therefore, Michael is another name for Jesus Christ, before and after His life on earth.
What does the Bible say about the name Michael?
The final reference to the name Michael is in Revelation chapter 12, verse 7 where “Michael and his angels” fight “the dragon and his angels.”
Is Michael a prince in the Bible?
True, Michael and Jesus are both referred to as princes. But, so what? A lot of people in the Bible are called “princes.” In fact, using the Jehovah’s Witness logic you can easily show that Jesus is Jehovah. In Isaiah 9:6, Jesus is called “mighty God.”
Is there a second Michael in the Bible?
Such an interpretation would clearly contradict the remainder of the Bible which refers to Jesus as a single, unique being—the Christ (Messiah) and only Son of God. The second reference to Michael says nothing that could indicate that this “second Michael” is not the same as the “first Michael.”
