The Son of Man came to seek and save that which was lost. It is Jesus' favorite title of Himself. I chosen this title because Jesus loved this title of Himself. We ought to never forget that Jesus is fully God and fully man: two natures in One Person. He is the God-man, the Incarnate Second Person of the Trinity. May we mediate on His life, death, burial, resurrection and ascension that we may be conformed to the image of the divine Son of Man! This blog web site will be a Christian defense of the Reformed doctrines of the Incarnate Son of Man. May all glory be to His name!

The Romanist Doctrine of Jesus

In the Bible Jesus saves us by His mercy but not by our works (Titus 3:5).  That is, no works we can do will save us except the work of Christ alone.  The Romanist Church says Jesus merely 'opened' heaven (1026) and through grace and good works we attain our own salvation (1477).  The fact is, no one can attain salvation except Christ alone.  We need His merit alone to have salvation.  


In 1 Peter 1:18-19 Jesus redeemed us with the precious blood of Christ alone.  They teach Mary was a co-redeemer in 494 in their Catechism and that she was "the cause of salvation for herself and the whole human race."  We will research more in the next session.
