DUAL NATURE OF THE SON, PROOF#5

The scriptures use two different phrases that are both translated by the one phrase "Son of Man" in most translations. The phrase, Son of the Man, designates Jesus as being the Son of the man, David -- a Messianic title. The anarthrous phrase, son of man, signifies any one who is a son of a human being, and would thus signify being "a little lower than the angels" -- terrestrial. The anarthrous "son of man" is found in the New Testament only in the following scriptures: John 5:27; Hebrews 2:6; Revelation 1:14; 14:14. All the other instances are actually "Son of the Man", which is contextually seen to mean the same thing as "Son of David".

If you mean Son of the Man David, Jesus, both as the Son of the Man and the Son of God, is now spirit in substance, as are God and the angels. -- 1 Peter 3:18.

Jesus, the Son of God, while he was in the days of his flesh, was, however, with the terrestrial glory. (1 Corinthians 15:39-40; Hebrews 2:9; 5:7) While in the days of his flesh, the Son of God, the Son of the Man, did not have his former celestial glory, the glory that was his when he was his God in the beginning of the world of mankind. (John 1:1,2; 17:5) Having sacrificed his human glory, the Son of God, the Son of the Man, David, no longer has the terrestrial glory, but he now again has the celestial glory. -- John 6:51; Luke 22:19; 1 Timothy 2:5,6; Hebrews 2:9; 10:10; 1 Peter 3:18.

In Jesus' prehuman glory, he did not have the title son of the man,(except that it could have been reckoned to him -- Romans 4:17), because he had to first be born into the lineage of David in order to take that title. Nevetheless, he was the firstborn Son of God before the world of mankind had been made through him. -- John 1:3,10; 10:36; 17:1,3,5; Colossians 1:15; 1 John 4:29.
