Daily Reflection: Mark 13:24-27 is a callback to the Ancient of Days scene in Daniel 7. Remember the four beasts, God coming amid the thrones, the Son of Man defeating the final beast, and taking his place next to the Father? In this teaching, Jesus is proclaiming that he is the Son of Man – the one who will defeat the final beast and take his place next to the Ancient of Days. What does this mean for God’s family? It means that King Jesus will reign over his people for all of eternity. The kingdom of God will come to its fullest expression, and Jesus will lead the way. This is the hope of the end times.
Daily Demonstration: It would be pretty scary to think of the end times without a righteous king ruling over creation. Fortunately, our king will rule over the kingdom for all of eternity. What do you think it will be like to be under the rule of Jesus? Think about his ministry. Was he harsh and restricting? Was he caring, compassionate, and empathetic? Imagine how amazing the New Heaven and the New Earth will be!

Jesus is both fully man and fully God – YHWH in the flesh. Not only does he perfectly model the attributes of YHWH as God, but also the image of God as a human. Jesus is a beautiful model of the Kingdom presented on earth. This plan dives deeply into the character of Jesus, and teaches how to step into the image of God that we were made to be.
