“I know that Jesus is the “Son of God”, but often He refers to Himself as the “Son of Man”. What does this name mean?”
Anyone have any thoughts to share?

This is a good question. I looked it up in my Bible Dictionary and this is what it says:
THIS TITLE WAS APPLIED BY CHRIST TO HIMSELF. THIS TITLE DOES NOT MEAN THAT HE WAS MERELY HUMAN AND NOT DIVINE. HE IDENTIFIED HIMSELF WITH MAN IN HIS HUMAN NATURE AND IN HIS SUFFERINGS FOR MANKIND (MATTHEW 20:28; JOHN 1:14).
