><>...JESUS THE CHRIST...><> The Person of Christ. The doctrine of the person of Christ, or Christology, is one of the most important concerns of Christian theology. The various aspects of the person of Christ are best seen by reviewing the titles that are applied to Him in the Bible.

><>...JESUS THE CHRIST...><> First, He used the title in a general way, almost as a substitute for the pronoun "I." A good example of this usage occurred in the saying where Jesus contrasted John the Baptist, who "came neither eating bread nor drinking wine," with the Son of Man, who "has come eating and drinking" <Luke 7:33-34>. Another probable example is the statement that "the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head" <Luke 9:58>. In this instance He warned a would-be disciple that those who wanted to follow Him must expect to share His homeless existence.

><>...JESUS THE CHRIST...><> Second, Jesus used the title to emphasize that "the Son of Man must suffer" <Mark 8:31>. The word must implies that His suffering was foretold by the prophets. It was, indeed, "written concerning the Son of Man, that He must suffer many things and be treated with contempt" <Mark 9:12>. So when Jesus announced the presence of the betrayer at the Last Supper, He declared, "The Son of Man indeed goes just as it is written of Him" <Mark 14:21>. Later on the same evening He submitted to His captors with the words, "The Scriptures must be fulfilled" <Mark 14:49>.

><>...JESUS THE CHRIST...><> Finally, Jesus used the title Son of Man to refer to Himself as the one who exercised exceptional authority-- authority delegated to Him by God. "The Son of Man has power [authority] on earth to forgive sins" <Mark 2:10>, He declared. He exercised this authority in a way that made some people criticize Him for acting with the authority of God: "The Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath" <Mark 2:28>.

><>...JESUS THE CHRIST...><> The Son of Man appeared to speak and act in these cases as the representative man. If God had given man dominion over all the works of His hands, then He who was the Son of Man in this special representative sense was in a position to exercise that dominion.

><>...JESUS THE CHRIST...><> Near the end of His ministry, Jesus spoke of His authority as the Son of Man at the end of time. Men and women "will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory," He declared <Mark 13:26>. He also stated to the high priest and other members of the supreme court of Israel: "You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven" <Mark 14:62>. He seemed deserted and humiliated as He stood there awaiting their verdict. But the tables would be turned when they saw Him vindicated by God as Ruler and Judge of all the world.
