I resume from where I left off (https://answeringislam.blog/is-michael-the-ruler-of-israel-further-proof-that-jesus-isnt-an-archangel-pt-1/).

A Divine Messiah That Suffers and Reigns! Pt. 2 Paid Members Public
I continue from where I left off /2018/12/20/a-divine-messiah-that-suffers-and-reigns-pt-1/. Isaiah wasn’t the only prophet to speaking of the Deity and vicarious suffering of the Messiah.
