Who is the Son of Man?

23 Aug 2020 - Neville Jones has us consider Jesus' preferred title, Son of Man, and Peter's epiphany of Jesus as the Messiah, the Son of God. In a place with a long history of idolatry, God the Father revealed to Peter the powerful truth on which God builds his community. Jesus very quickly affirms Peter's confession not far from a location dubbed the Gates of Hades. There, Jesus declares that the counsels and schemes of the enemy -- personified as death -- will not to prevail against his people. Instead Resurrection himself wins the victory. Readings: Isaiah 51:1,6-8; Matthew 16:13-20 Blessed by our teachings?
