Was Jesus the only son of God? Is it possible that we are all sons and daughters of God?

Answer 1

Yes, we are all the children of God as was Jesus.

Jesus was a great master prophet and who left us with many valuable teachings about God. There were and still are many great prophets the world over, including Muhammed, Jehovah, Buddha, Joseph Smith and many, many more, who all had much to teach us of the many facets of our eternal energy source, also known as God. God is the process of life.

We are each an individuation of God, created of the same matter as God. Together we are the sum (son) total of God.

Answer 2

Jesus Is the Only Begotten Son Of God.

We are all Created & Adopted sons & daughters Of God.

Answer 3

Jesus is the only begotten Son of God. He got that way when the whole Mary thing happened.

All those in Christ are Sons of God. In the Old Testament, it gets even more complicated. But that's the story in a nutshell.

Answer 4

Jesus was different because he actually was living before he was born, I don't mean just for the nine months before his birth. There are cases in the Old Testament of the Bible of God appearing as a human, many people believe this was actually Jesus. For example, in the Book of Joshua there is a person who is given the title "Commander of the Lord's Army". This could easily be so because Jesus is given the title "Only Beggotten son of God". The word Beggotten doesn't just mean eternal, it means he existed before time began.
In this sense, the rest of us can never be a son or daughter of God because we didn't exist before time began.
But we are all made in the image of God. This is one of the reasons we are held accountable by God. We are his representatives on this planet and we should behave with the same kindness towards other people and animals as God does towards them. It doesn't mean being "a door mat", but it does mean we show restraint when dealling with the vulnerable.

Answer 5

Jesus is the Son of God and he is God.

God is 3 persons in one: The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit

Answer 6

Jesus is God's only begotten Son. When we believe this and acknowledge this then we are saved and become sons and daughters of God also but in spirit.

Answer 7

It is my understanding that this what the disciple Thomas believed. In fact the issue of whether Jesus should be considered as devine and distinguished as the only son of God was a question the early Church decided at the Coucil of Nicea. They decided that he was fully human and fully devine. This pronouncement was in response to some who were teaching that Jesus was not devine. The Nicean Creed codifies what was in essence decided. Your speculation is exactly what this Creed was designed to address.

Answer 8

Yes, but Jesus is the only Begotton.

In the NT it says that we are the offspring of God. Read Acts 17:27-29.

Answer 9

In the book of Genesis, Israel is spoken of as one man. In the rest of the Bible, Israel is mainly spoken of as a nation of people. Is Israel one man or many men? In the book of Genesis, Adam is spoken of as one man. In other parts of the Bible, the word "adam" is used to designate mankind. Is Adam one man or many men?

In the gospels, Jesus is spoken of as one man. They further state that Jesus is the Christ and speak of Christ as being one man. The New Testament letters state that each member of the church is a part of the body of Christ. Is Christ then one man or many men?

It's stated that Jesus is the only begotten Son of the Father. [John 1:14,18; John 3:16,18; 1 John 4:9] Yet God had already called Israel His Son. [Hosea 11:1] Since only one can be the only begotten of a father, which one is the only begotten Son of the Father -- Israel or Jesus?

Paul, speaking of Christ, calls Him the first-begotten [Hebrews 1:6] -- yet God had already said that Ephraim was His first-born. [Jeremiah 31:9] Which was the first-born, Ephraim or Christ?

Paul states that we're reconciled to God by the death of His Son. [Romans 5:10] That very same Paul and in the very same letter also wrote that the world is reconciled by the casting away of Israel. [Romans 11:15] Now which is the reconciliation of the world? Is it the death of God's first-born and only begotten Son, Jesus Christ -- or is it the casting away of Israel?

If Ephraim and Jesus are both God's first-born, and Jesus is His only begotten, as stated in the Holy Scriptures, which cannot be broken, what exactly does that make Adam? For Luke states that Adam was also a Son of God. [Luke 3:38]

And it's pretty obvious that "Adam" is all of mankind.

Answer 10

Yes we are all sons and Daughters of God, BUT God helped conseve (I know this is spelled wrong) Christ Jesus.

Answer 11

Wouldn't you have to make some sort of distinction between yourself and Jesus? Maybe you could call yourself an adopted son of God. That way you could avoid the sin of incest...
