    My brother asked me why Jesus always refers to himself in the third person. Needless to say, I had no answer. Does anyone have insight on this?

    Very interesting, I've never really noticed that, as soon as I thought about what you said: scripture came to mind instantly.

    Matthew 25:31-46, I really didn't notice it before so I didn't note if HE always did. I will be more aware of it now.

    I'm wondering if HE did that because unlike others HE was the Son of GOD & man; born of woman. Maybe even to emphasize the power HE had, was, is & is to come. If HE had simply said "when I come back._._." then people might have argued more with HIM about impossibilities, instead of listening to HIM, also they may have thought of HIM only as fleshly being. Just a thought
