29th September - Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael - Independent Catholic News

29th September - Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael - Independent Catholic News: The name Michael means 'He who is like unto God'. The archangel engages in a great cosmic battle with the Devil. In the Book of Jude, he contends with the Devil over the body of Moses, rebuking the Evil One in God's name. The imagery reveals that with the triumph of Jesus, evil no longer reigns throughout the cosmos, but remains on earth as the enemy of those who seek to follow God's will.
