By Wu Wen, Italy1. The Lord has Predicted that the Son of man will come in the last days.Many of the Lord’s brothers and sisters eagerly wait for the Lord to return and think that the Lord will come in the spiritual body after resurrection descending with the clouds. Because the Bible says, “Which also said, You men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him go into heaven” (Act 1:11). “Behold, he comes with clouds” (Rev 1:7). Most of people wait for the Lord to suddenly descend with clouds one day. For thousands of years, Christians have longed for it so. But if you are one who knows the Bible well, you must know that the verses of the Lord’s return are hardly limited to just these verses. The Lord said: “Be you therefore ready also: for the Son of man comes at an hour when you think not” (Luk 12:40). “But of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Mat 24:36-37). “For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even to the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Mat 24:27). “For as the lightning, that lightens out of the one part under heaven, shines to the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day. But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation” (Luk 17:24-25). The Lord Jesus mentioned “the Son of man comes” and “the coming of the son of man,” obviously, in order to tell us that He would return in the form of the Son of man in the last days. Then what, after all, is “the Son of man”? It isn’t hard to understand. The Son of man is born to a human, and has emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, a normal home life and so on. Let’s think about it: The Lord Jesus is the Son of man, who was born to Mary and had brothers and sisters, a normal family and normal growth process. Besides possessing normal humanity, He has divine substance which we humans don’t possess, being able to express the truth, bestow upon man the way of repentance, resurrect the dead, perform many of signs and wonders and finally save the whole human from sins by being nailed to the cross for man. Those works were accomplished by God himself in ordinary and normal humanity. The Lord Jesus predicted many times that the Son of man would come in the last days. From this we can learn of the fact that when He returns in the last days, God should be like the Lord Jesus at that time, being born to a human, doing work in the fresh, because if it were the spiritual body, it wouldn’t be called the Son of man.
