I'm used to him being referred to as the "son of god".  Can you site the reference where he called himself the son of man. I'm not saying its not there, I just can't remember it.

In the Gospels the title occurs eighty-one times. Most of the recent writers (among them being II. Lietzmann) have come to the conclusion that Jesus, speaking Aramaic, could never have designated himself as the "son of man" in a Messianic, mystic sense, because the Aramaic term never implied this meaning. Greek translators coined the phrase, which then led, under the influence of Dan. vii. 13 and the Logos gospel, to the theological construction of the title which is basic to the Christology of the Church. To this construction reference is made in Abbahu's controversial saying in Ta'an. 65b. Indeed, examination of many of the passages shows that in the mouth of Jesus the term was an equivalent for the personal pronoun "I."

It is a Greek rendering of an Aramaic personal pronoun.

Yes, some people behave themselves when they're threatened with hellfire forever more, others act like r soles all their lives and beg forgiveness at the last minute ( if they're lucky to have prior warning of coming death).

Because he *was a son of man.

Let's not go into this tired old debate about whether he did or did not exist. Because, evidently, Jesus was nothing more than a concept of some Jew's imagination that he allowed to embellished into public life.

1700 years after the establishment of Christianity to be the official religion, we still have nut jobs about the place that consider him an actual person. Unfortunately, we don't have enough people out there that want to oppose religion as a meddling part of our life. But, fortunately, we do have enough people that go about their lives, living in tolerant ways, to be able to keep the religious fanatics in check.

I try and convince people that there was no Jesus. But to the obstinate the do not listen to what I say, I just let them believe what they want to believe. Even if it means believing in imaginary friends.

You are quite right john smith but in days of old, the emperors and rulers needed a way to prevent anarchy and wars so they wrote that book and just kept adding to it over the centuries.

For an alleged person to be alleging he is the son of Mr Man in the sky, he sure spent a lot of time around his birth parents. Did not wading through water, and making people believe in satiating their diets with fish sandwiches convince him that he was too good for Mary and Jo?

Jesus was a man, born of woman.

As we all are.       .....except you girls of course.


Matthew 20:28
Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.


Hebrews 2:5
For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.
6  But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him?
7  Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands:
8  Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.
9  But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.


Hebrews 2:14
Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
15  And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16  For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
17  Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
18  For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.


1 John 5:6
This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
