If Jesus ascended to heaven as Michael the angel why is he still called a man? Jehovah's Witnesses believe Jesus was resurrected as a spirit creature Michael the archangel. If this is so, why do they still call him a man?

1 Timothy 2:5 (King James Version):


  For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
His role on this earth was as a man, and he may properly be referred to in this way.

1 Corinthians 15:45-47


  So it is written: "The first man Adam became a living person." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. However, what is spiritual is not first. What is physical is first, and afterward what is spiritual.  The first man is from the earth and made of dust; the second man is from heaven.


Thus, Jesus is both "a life-giving spirit" and "the second man".
