DLord 27 - Redemption, Salvation, Reformation and Regeneration

DLord 27

The Lord is called the Son of man when the subject is
redemption, salvation, reformation and regeneration.
This is clear from the following:

. . . the Son of man (came)
to give His life a redemption for many.
(Matthew 20:28, Mark 10:45)


. . . the Son of man has come to save . . .,
(and) not . . . to destroy . . ..
(Matthew 18:11, Luke 9:56)

. . . the Son of man has come to seek
and to save that which was lost.
(Luke 19:10)

(The Son of man came)
that the world through Him might be saved.
(John 3:17)

He who sows the good seed is the Son of man.
(Matthew 13:37)

The subject there is redemption and salvation,
because these are accomplished
by the Lord through the Word,
and the Lord therefore calls Himself the Son of man.
