Hello,
What I conclude is what Christians concluded centuries ago. This discussion is not new. The discipline within Christian theology that deals with the man / God relationship of Christ is called Christology. We all have an element of the human and divine within us so is this so strange ?
You are wrong in that Jesus did not claim to be God The Son or that the Bible does not say this. If you read Matthew 26:63-65 you will see Jesus did not deny the title Son of God and the Jewish leaders responded by accusing Jesus of blasphemy due to him claiming divinity. Also in John 19:7 the Jewish religious leaders said he must die, because He claimed to be the Son of God. Why would His claiming to be the Son of God be considered blasphemy and be worthy of a death sentence? The Jewish leaders understood exactly what Jesus meant by the phrase “Son of God.” To be the Son of God is to be of the same nature as God. The Son of God is “of God.” The claim to be of the same nature as God—to in fact be God—was blasphemy to the Jewish leaders; therefore, they demanded Jesus’ death.
However Jesus mainly referred to himself as the Son of Man. And yes, “Son” in the bible can have a few meanings. But it is clear Jesus( in Mathew 26.64 ) saw himself to be worshipped as Christ The Messiah The Son of Man in the prophetic context of Daniel
“In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.”
Please Help.
Thanks !
