The Son of Man is given a mission to have dominion over all kingdoms and governments, all nations and ethnic groups, all languages and cultures. It is called the Kingdom of God. The good news of the NT is that this long awaited kingdom has arrived in Jesus of Nazareth. We align ourselves with it by repentance and by a belief that attaches us to this King and His way of doing and being in the world.
“I saw in the night visions, and behold, with the clouds of heaven there came one like a son of man, and he came to the Ancient of Days and was presented before him. And to him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed.” Daniel 7:13-14 (ESV)
