St.MichaelSt. Michael is one of the principal angels; his name was the war-cry of the good angels in the battle fought in heaven against the enemy and his followers.St. Michael is an archangel in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic tradition. He is viewed as the field commander of the Army of God. He is mentioned by name in the Book of Daniel, the Book of Jude, and the Book of Revelation.

factsSt. Michael the Archangel is a saint because he is a being in communion with God.St. Michael the Archangel was not born and did not die. He's an angel. Angels are pure spirits who were immediately created by God.The four archangels are Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and the fallen Lucifer.Lucifer the fallen angelLuicfer is called a fallen angel because he was banished from heaven and its like a banishment or punishment.Lucifer is Satan LuciferLucifer was banished from heaven because he betrayed God which is called anointed cherub
How did St.Michael become a saintSt. Michael was created by God as an angel and a saint long before the universe even existed.Yes, for thousands, maybe billions of years, Saint Michael the archangel had nothing to do at all. He spent the most of his time sharpening his sword and polishing his shield. He needed these weapons because he knew God's favorite archangel Lucifer was going to turn on all of the host of heaven.Why was there a war in heavenThere was a war in heaven because Lucifer betrayed God and tried to overthrow him. So Michael tried to stop him so all good angels and bad angels went to war in heaven.
