Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Jesus is Michael the Archangel because they interpret certain Bible verses, such as 1 Thessalonians 4:16 and Jude 9, as indicating that Jesus and Michael are the same being. They also believe that Jesus' role as the archangel Michael aligns with his position as a powerful and authoritative figure in God's heavenly organization.
