Part One: Jesus is the Son of God and Son of Man. He did not come as King, but as servant.
Scripture: Mark 8: 31
He then began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and after three days rise again.
Note: “Son of Man” is Jesus most common title for himself. The reference comes from Daniel 7:13. Jesus is also referred to as the Messiah, the human agent of God who is vindicated by God.
In Mark 8:31 Jesus begins to speak plainly and directly to His disciples about His death and resurrection. He began to prepare them for what was going to happen to Him, telling them three times that He would soon die.
