Authority…

Read: John 5
Marked: John 5:26-27,“For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself, and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.

Genesis chapter 1 details how God created everything we see around us. God has life in Himself and Jesus, the Son of God, has life in Himself, and He gives life, everlasting life, to anyone who asks in His name.

The title, the Son of Man, refers to a prophecy in Daniel 7:13 where Daniel sees one “like the Son of Man” who was given dominion and glory and a kingdom. This is Jesus and He has the authority to execute judgment.
