Question
I'm a non-Christian who has two questions about Christianity:

1) I've always heard of Jesus as being the Son of God.  Why, in some passages, did he refer to himself as the "Son of Man"?

2) I'm wondering if I understand the meaning of the Holy Spirit.  As near as I can figure, Holy Spirit refers to the presence and/or influence of God in our daily lives.  Is this close to what is meant by "Holy Spirit"?

Thank you very much,

Hi,
Christianity is not a religion, is a Person. JesusChrist.
the first question is: in the Biblfe we found many verses talking about the SON OF GOD.. If you have a Bible you can take it look and read it. Mattwes 16:27...19:28....25:31...26:63....27:40, ect.... there are many more.
a Holy Ghost. the part of the person that is not the body; the soul... beings who do not have bodies... in the Bible are many verses talking about the spirit of the man and about THE HOLY GHOST, wich is diferent. God is Spirit, and we have an spirit to. if you read in Genesis chapter 2:7 read this way. THE LORD GOD FORMED THE MAN FROM TH DUST OF THE GROUND AND BREATH INTO HIS NOSTRILS THE BREATH OF LIFE, AND THE MAN BECAME A LIVING BEING.
WE a human being, without the spirit we are nothing just a body, and when people died, the spirit go back to God
