Son of God

Revision as of 16:14, 24 February 2014 by Admin (talk | contribs)
This article is one in a series of studies on Jesus as Son - you are currently on the topic that is in bold:

There are a number of reasons why Jesus is called the Son of God:

  1. Jesus was a Son of David, who was a Son of Adam, who was a son of God.
  2. The book of Job records that the "sons of God" came before the LORD, and Satan was among them. "Sons of God" therefore refers to heavenly beings, rather than earthly beings.
  3. When King Nebuchadnezzar threw three Hebrews into a furnace, he saw four "men" walking around, and the fourth was "like the Son of God". The fourth man was in the form of a man, but looked like an angel: perhaps his face shone just like when Jesus was transfigured before Peter, James and John.
  4. Paul said: "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." (Romans 8:14) As the Christ, the anointed Messiah, Jesus was led by the Spirit of God (which was inside him), and was the Son of God.


The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; (Mark 1:1)

Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: (Romans 1:3-4)


Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. (Hebrews 4:14)
