Michael the Most, His Father the Utmost, and Their redeemed children the kindergarteners in the school of Christ

"The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. 

She will do him good and not evil all the days of [eternity].  ...

Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.... 

Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. 

Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. 

Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. 

Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates."  (Prov. 31:11,12,23,28-31). 

It has been my growing conviction that when God said to His Son, "Let us make man in Our image", that Michael formed Adam in His Father's image, and then formed Eve in His own spiritual image. And so it has continued that all of Adam's sons have borne the kingly image of his Father in heaven, and all of Eve's daughters have borne the supportive image of Michael the divine Help Meet to His Father.

That makes Michael neither a female, nor effeminate or feminine. Michael was not in Eve's image, but she in His. In Jesus we have seen the work of a busy, multi-tasking mother-wife. As God of the Old Testament Jesus, the ever-willing Help Meet, the divine Mother of all living, was normatively gracious and of tender mercy. But, when the children made Him sufficiently furious, the almighty she-bear came out of the Mother of all living. Many warnings came to the children, but the punishment surely came!! Finally, as God of the New Testament, the Mother's ministration of righteousness and grace could be given because, through all of His punishments in a long-term ministration of condemnation, the Law had been written on many an Israelite heart.

"God, who created all things by Jesus Christ... the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named." (Eph 3:15). "She will do Him good and not evil all the days of [eternity]." (Prov. 1:12).
