Why might some Christians think the title Son of Man helps them to understand who Jesus was?
Jesus was fully human as indicated by his title, Son of Man. These words reflect his natural human birth and yet Jesus was also fully divine as God's son. Jesus as 'Son of Man' is God in human form and so he understands what it means to be fully human. At birth Jesus is given the name Emmanuel which means 'God with us' (Matthew 1:23). Jesus was a human man and as that experienced the fullness of life: its burden and joy, its sadness and happiness, its pain and pleasure. Jesus was like us. Christians understand what the human condition is and so understand Jesus better when they consider he shared in living life as we do and knows what living requires of us.

Can you worship Jesus?
Whether you accept that you can worship Jesus depends on your religious beliefs. Only those who accept that Jesus is God, as Christians do, will feel that they can worship Jesus. What some might find confusing is that we do not worship Jesus by going to a specific place, or performing specific rituals. The worship the Jesus commands is enacted internally and expressed externally - so someone who wishes to worship Jesus will serve fellow Christians and non-Christians. The nature of this service may differ, but ultimately a person doing good deeds to honour God and Jesus is worshipping Jesus by doing that.

What parts of the Bible in particular might help Christians?
I would say that the parables and teachings of Jesus are most helpful. They outline the important values and virtues that Jesus wishes to see in us on Judgment Day. They give us a very specific map for how to inherit eternal life, which sometimes surprises us by its stress on generosity and forgiveness.Another perspective:The New Testament epistles also greatly help Christians understand and make practical application of Jesus' teachings. James' epistle, for just one example, might as well be subtitled, "How To Be A Good Christian."
