Also Uriel made it clear not to "play with the controls".  Michael of all people would die before defying TWG's will.  He loves Harry very much but he'd let himself, and Harry both die before violating Uriel's words.  He'd have used it only so he could walk.

Devil's Advocate Statement: Until his Family is Threatened, at which point his priorities can potentially shift (see Warrior for an example).   If things had gone differently at the end there, if he were somehow certain Harry would failed and Nic would murder his family, I dont know that he'd have been able to hold himself back. He trusted Harry to get there in time and save the day, but gun to their heads and I think you could make him desperate enough to make a mistake.

Maybe for his family.  However Uriel's Grace did not fall so he didn't play with it at all.

Oh, agreed. I just meant that while he would certainly Die before he risked it he might not be willing to stand by and watch them die.  I think that is the only lever that might actually do it.

Yeah, the love of ones family can make you do big things.  That being said Michael's faith is so strong he might believe until his last breath that his family would be protected.  His faith is that strong.  I think it's more likely he'd go bad if he felt his family was let down, like the death of his child or something.

Perhaps that's how Nicodemus finally turned.  A man of absolute faith that lost it when something horrible happened.
