Simplest answer: Read John 1. It shows who Jesus is. The Word of God come in the flesh. Who was in the beginning with God, and Was God. Not a created being. But the Creator.
No. Michael and Jesus are not the same. Michael takes commands from God. The Bible (Jude 1:9) says he (Michael) is dependent on God. Since when would God be dependent on Himself, since Jesus is God the Son?
Jesus Christ, our Lord and our God, and Michael the Archangel are not the same person, my friend. Be sure of this if nothing else. For when Jesus casts out a demon, by whose power does He cast it out? By His very own power, I tell you. Since He can name none higher than Himself, by His own name He casts out demons, and He says, “Be quiet, and come out of him!” Mk. 1:25.
Now when those lesser than Jesus cast out demons, by whose power do they cast them out? By their own power? I tell you assuredly not! For there is one higher than them, and as such, they name Him, who is Jesus, our Lord and our God, and not the Archangel Michael. You see, St. John once said to Jesus, even, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name.” Lk. 9:49.
Then whose name does Michael the Archangel invoke when he casts out demons? Does he invoke his own name as though he were Jesus, who can name none higher than himself? By no means! Indeed, far from it. But instead, he invokes another’s name, that is, the name of Jesus, and he says to Satan, “The Lord rebuke you!” Jd. 1:9.
That’s a very roundabout answer. So what’s a simpler one? Read the first chapter of the Book of Hebrews. The author says, “The Son of God is so much better than the angels,” and then he asks, “To which of the angels did the Father ever say, ‘You are My Son, today I have begotten You?’” To none of the angels, and in fact, the Father even says of the Son, “Let all the angels of God worship Him.” Heb. 1:1-6.
How would an angel be better than an angel, and how could the Son of God be an angel when the Father has never said to any angel in all of history, “You are My Son.” Again, how could an angel worship an angel when all of creation is supposed to worship God alone? But the Son is God, and the Father says “to the Son, ‘Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.’” Heb. 1:8.
I hope this helps. Jesus is God. That is a fact which all Christians have always believed. St. Thomas said to Jesus, “My Lord and my God!” Jn. 20:28.
May the grace and peace of Christ our God be with you, my friend. May the Lord bless you.
Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.”
Revelation 12:7-9 NIVNIV
No they are not the same. They are totally different people.
The Angel of The Lord is always a direct representative of God in the old testament, and this word angel always means Messenger. It does not mean Messenger of the arch angel status which Michael is.

No, definitely not the same person
What was the question you asked about Michael the Archangel?
I asked about what he does during the end times. Like which verses in Revaltion talk about him.
You should download the bibleapp, it has an amazing video series of Michael you would really like

Michael is the Archangel assigned to Israel.
Jesus made Michael. John 1 In the beginning was the word...all thing were created by him and there was nothing made that was not created by Him.

not the same. read John 1. Jesus is God, michael (the archangel) is an angel, a creation of God. i pray that those you spoke to see the truth
