Blaine: JS defines an
angel as being a messenger from God, and can either be a spirit, or a
resurrected being. I doubt if I was ever an angel, but I am sure I was a
spirit personage in premortal life. (although, my wife sometimes
tells me I am an angel, as did my mother when I was good lol) I believe
all of us were such. Would you mind giving me ch. and verse where it
says there is no salvation for angels? I
may be in for it if it is true. LOL

Blaine: In the Book of
Daniel, Michael was the same spirit that left Adam's body when he died. He
had resumed his former position of honor and glory in God's spiritual
realm/kingdom, and apparently also his former identity.
>
> But, in the after-life, Adam is still a man, right?
No, he resumed his life as a spirit. Adam/Michael had not yet been resurrected. Jesus Christ was
the first fruits of the resurrection. Did he become a god?
No, except for Jehovah/Jesus Christ, one does not become a
god until after the resurrection. Even then it is iffy!
> Does he become Michael the Archangel, appear to Daniel, then revert back to
> a man, then become a God? Michael was an angel in spirit form when he appeared to Daniel. Again, Jesus was the firstfruits of the resurrection. Michael may well be a god now, since he could be among those who came forth from their graves after the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I have no reason to doubt that he does sit on a throne in God's kingdom, as does Abraham, Moses and others.

Blaine: Actually no. Not the way I have
explained it. You just have to remember that no spirit took a tangible
body until after Jesus Christ came forth as the firstfruits of the
resurrection. In fact, the Jehovah of the OT
was basically a spirit--He was the great I AM, whom Jesus identified as himself
(John 8: 58 ". . . before Abraham was, I
AM.)
