The first one has given me some homework to do, that 'angel of the Lord' guy in the OT 'seems' to be a aprt of the Godhead for sure but I'll do some more research to be sure. Still not sure of the Jesus/Michael thing either and will include that in my homework. The only way I can see it working would be that the Word was working through the OT using the name 'Michael' or that the name Michael was somehow a spiritual thing in the same way that John the Baptist was also Elijah "13 For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John. 14 And if you are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was to come." But I'll look into it.
The second link had some interesting points but wasn't overly convincing. He makes the point of proving that Jesus IS God, then he makes the other point that Jesus was the Son of God, implying (if I understood it correctly)that God and the Son of God are two separate beings in some way? He then states that at some point the Son of God was 'begotten'. So if the Father is God and the Son is God then God would have to had created himself?
But I'll think on it some more.
Either way I appreciate you taking the time to clarify your position, those two links make much more sense to me than previous stuff, so while I might not agree with all of it, at least I understand it a bit better.
