J. The Son of Man.

This seems to be the of the Lord, the one by which He called Himself time and again: “Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head” ().

This is the of Christ. Wherever it is recorded, it is used in connection with the of the Lord Jesus Christ. Even in the Old Testament the same thing holds true. Some may take issue with this, stating that Ezekiel takes upon himself that same title, the son of man. However, we refer the reader to the passages where it is used; there the coming is in view. For example, in is the prophecy of the Valley of Dry Bones, the , which shall come to life again when the Lord prophesies unto them to return to the Land of Palestine; that will be the .

This is the and not man’s. You are son of man, but He is Son of man.

The title, the Son of man, is found in the New Testament: once in Acts; once in Hebrews; twice in Revelation; and in the Gospels; in the Epistles. The Epistles concern the Church, not the coming kingdom of the Millennium. Christ is of the Kingdom, but of the Church. And as the Church is not the Kingdom, therefore, the Millennial Title (the Son of man) of Christ is not found in the Epistles to the Churches.
