Diptych Christ the Teacher and Archangel Michael

ABOUT THE SACRED IMAGE

Christ as the giver of the law - holds an open book of the gospel - "I am the way, the truth and the Light."

and

ARCHANGEL MICHAEL – “Who Is Like God? – Defender of the Faith

Chief of the Angels – Michael along with Gabriel are recognized as “Archangels” in Judaism, Christianity and Islam

Mentioned in the books Daniel (as helping Daniel as at end times standing with the “children of The people),

the Epistle of St Jude (tells of His guarding the tombs of Moses and Eve and of his battle with Satan over the body of Moses)

and the Book of Revelation where Archangel Michael and his angels will do battle with Satan.

Archangel Michael and angels are “heavenly” bodies different from humans as St Paul tells us “not all flesh is alike.” Sometimes they appear as humans and other times as invisibles.

Archangel Michael as the “champion” of Christians and the Church fights Satan, escorts the soul to heaven at the death and will summon all mankind for heavenly judgement!
