What's your view of Christ? Who do you say that he is?

I believe your answer to that question will determine your eternal destiny.

When we look at that title, Son of Man,

what we often do mistakenly is say, oh wait a minute, we know

our Christology that we believe as Christians that Jesus was Verahoma, Verdeusus that he was truly man and truly God. He had a human nature and a divine nature and so when he calls himself the son of man, this must be primarily a reference to his human nature. And this is an expression

of Jesus' humility, where he doesn't boast about his divinity, he doesn't boast about his divinity he doesn't boast about being the

son of God he says suit him and say that I the son of man and when we do that we make a serious error because when Jesus uses the title

Son of Man he uses it obviously in light of its connection to Old Testament

literature, particularly the book of Daniel, in which the son of man is a heavenly

being who descends from the presence of the ancient of days,

from the very presence of God himself,

for a season to carry on his ministry,

to which he will later ascend to be restored to the glory that he had

with the father from the beginning. And if you look every time that Jesus

uses the term son of man in a new, you will see it's not an exercise

in humility when he will say, for example, that the son of man is Lord of the Sabbath. He's not saying that human beings are the Lord of the

Sabbath because the Sabbath is established and instituted by God.

When he says that you may know that the son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,

he's associating with that title a divine prerogative.

Not, don't get me wrong, I don't think that the son of man refers exclusively to his deity, but I would say that the title refers chiefly and primarily to his

deity.

That this is God who has taken upon himself a human nature.
