Where is Your Son of Man Today? (Santosh Poonen)

Jesus was made lower than the angels so that He might deliver us human beings (who had fallen lower than the angels) from slavery (Hebrews 2:5-18). Jesus appeared on earth for the sake of you and redeemed you with His precious blood. Now, if you call Him Father, be holy like Him, and live your whole life in fear. (I Peter 1:15-19) If you can sin casually, you haven’t seen the real value of the blood of Jesus, that it is far more valuable than even gold and silver. (I Peter 1:18-19) If you want the devil and his agents to be upset at you, proclaim that Jesus is standing at the right hand of God. Be warned, however, that it might kill you! (Acts 7:56-60) A Jesus at the right-hand of the Father is greater than a Jesus on earth (John 14:12). The secret to coming to an overcoming life is to come boldly to God’s throne to ask for mercy and grace in your time of need (Hebrews 4:14-16), knowing that Jesus is seated at the right-hand of that throne of power (Luke 22:69, Mark 16:19), and that He is making intercession on your behalf because He can sympathize with your weakness (Romans 8:34). Jesus has already Himself been glorified. But, when He returns He will be glorified in the persons of His Holy ones (II Thessalonians 2:9-12).
