Archangel Michael

Description
Angel is the name, not of an order of beings but, of an office. Michael holds the office of leader to the Archangels. Michael, who is like God, is ever young. He is winged to show his unweariedness, and without sandals, because he does not belong to the earth. His garments are white to denote his purity and sanctity. A golden rayed nimbus encircles his head of golden curls. Michael is never without his crown, his flaming sword, and shield bearing the cross of St. George.

Who in God’s presence, nearest to the throne

Stand ready at command, and are his eyes

That run thro’ all the heavens, and down to earth

Bear his swift errands.

History
Lucifer had a grand design for Armageddon. He conspired it all within his own right, while roaming the earth and observing the turmoil that could only signal the end of days, the end of mankind. Soon, he would submerge the Earth in the lake of fire. It would yawn open and spew venom, like the giant mouth of some hideous toxic beast. All of man would know that evil had a place, a name, and a lord. If they did not already, they would soon know his name. Every voice would cry out with it before being silenced forever.
