Can I ask clarification on this? Is that to say that Michael doesn't love his enemies cause he isn't perfect in his love? if that's the case, isn't that a sin?


"Michael doesn't love his enemies"... I'm not sure that's the case, dear V (peace to you!). I am not sure his obedience to JAH equals a lack of love. However, if his love was PERFECT then he would have (also) been able to open the scrolls, right? Also, he would have given himself a a sacrifice on behalf of his friends AND enemies, yes? I mean, I'm not entirely sure but he could have OFFERED, maybe. Yet, I'm of the mind that he wasn't good ENOUGH, that Death didn't value HIM (or anyone else) as MUCH as our Lord? Which means that while he might be 99.99% perfect, he is not 100%?

But he has no sin in his body... and he has always remained obedient... so I can see how, from our POV he would be "perfect." Perhaps more is required of spirit beings than of us, due to the differences in body... and blood? And maybe THAT'S why it's such an issue when WE "conquer?"

Or perhaps you/someone else has heard something different/more? If so, please share!

Keep in mind, too, that the wage of sin is death... and spirits don't die but must be destroyed...

Peace!

YSSFS of Christ,

Shellamar
