Sir,
To answer your question , Jesus is not the son of God but the 'Son of God'. Adam is a 'son of God'. God sent His Son to die for your sins , my sins and the sins of the world because He is my merciful Lord. He gave His Son Jesus because all the sacrifices in the world put together cannot be enough as an atonement for sins. Sir, you dont understand that there is only an anti-christ not an anti- allah or anti-mohammed or any other anti-god. Christ is the only GOD. Christ is Spirit , we are flesh. Adam was dust from the earth , Christ is the way , the truth , the life. He is Spirit, adam lost his spirit after he sinned, Christ restores the Spirit within. you are not given grace by good works, but by repentence and it is the mercy of my Lord Jesus to offer each and every man and woman eternal life and count them to be children of God.
God bless brother

"If Jesus is the "son of God", then wouldnt that make adam and eve his children also?"
-In response to this question...Adam and Eve were made, not begotten. When a painter paints a car, it looks like a car, but it doesn't work like one. When a sculptor makes a statue, it looks like a human, but doesn't come alive. God made man in His image, but we are not the same as Him. God has one BEGOTTEN son, Jesus Christ. When man begets a son, it is like him. It is of the same nature. Therefore, we must assume that Christ is of the same nature and essence of His Father, and we, being made, are of a different nature.

"Why would God put his "son" on earth to die for your sins, when he is the judge of those sins?"
-"God became man to turn creatures into sons: not simply to produce better men of the old kind but to produce a new kind of man. It is not like teaching a horse to jump better and better but like turning a horse into a winged creature." (216)
-God is a Holy God. Our sin separates us from Him. He is indeed the Judge, but He is a righteous Judge. If you have sinned, He cannot say on Judgement day that you are not guilty. That would not be justice at all, would it? That would be unfair to the people who had actually at least tried not to sin, right? Well, God knows we have all sinned and sent Christ to atone for us. He wants desperately to have a relationship with you, that's why He made an easy way to establish that through His Son!

Yes, Adam and Eve (and all the race of man) are God's children also - but not in the same way that Jesus is "Son of God". Jesus Christ is unique - both perfect man and perfect God, two natures in one Person. So we cannot be compared to him in that way.

As for the second part of the question, Jesus came to save us from our sins - to show us the way of repentance so that we could turn back to God (who is always waiting for us with arms open wide in a loving embrace) - and to destroy death, which was the disease that infected human nature as a result of sin.

The view that God is a cruel despot, waiting for someone to sin so He can judge them and throw them into the eternal fire is a warped distortion of Christianity. Sin is not the breaking of a set of morals deserving of punishment - sin is a departure and a turning away from God. The judgment is a just judgement because it is the truth - it is recognition of the fact that the person who sins has turned away from God. Christ came to turn us back so that there would be no judgment against us.

They are His children.

I don't get your point. Can't he walk and chew gum at the same time?

Jesus was the first born of all creation and through him all other things were made.(Col.1:15).
Adam and Eve were created perfect and sinless,and therefore were 'sons of God'.The angels also were created perfect and therefore are 'sons of God'
We on the other-hand inherit imperfection from Adam and Eve,our original parents,and therefore cannot have the same relationship with Jehovah because of our inherited sin.
Jesus came to earth as a perfect human to buy back what Adam,also a perfect human had lost for all mankind.And that was the gift of everlasting life.Jesus offered his perfect life as a ransom sacrifice to 'buy back'
what Adam had lost.If we exercise faith in that ransom sacrifice we can have the hope of everlasting life,when God ushers in his new system of things,after his great war of Armageddon.(John 3:16,17:3;Ps.37:9-11,29)
Only then will we be able to be called 'Gods children",after we have been restored back to perfection.

Adam and Eve were God's children, even though he created them in the beginning. As to why Jesus came to die for us, because God is Holy, he cannot righteously allow sin in his presence. We therefore had to have a substitution to take our place so that we could come into God's presence. The only way was through the shedding of blood, and the only one that was pure and Holy enough to do that was Jesus Christ himself. We could not and cannot save ourselves.

1. Yes, all humans who worship God are considered his sons and daughters. All others are considered to be direct or indirect servants, or children, of Satan. This means that at one point Adam and Eve were considered God's children.

2. Who better to judge us than one who has lived on Earth and faced the temptations from the Devil as we have faced them? I think Christ as judge is an excellent choice.

Adam and Eve were created creatures from the dirt of the earth. They were no longer the Son and Daughter of God. God has purely one Son: Jesus Christ. Christ is the residing know God, who replaced into with God the daddy contained in the start, and has dominion over all creation in the present day. A prophet is purely someone who speaks the choose of God. i do no longer see contained in the Bible the position Adam or Eve spoke the choose of God, or were observed as prophets. i do no longer, hence, trust they were prohets of God. Jesus Christ replaced into conceived by the Holy Spirit by Mary. Mary replaced right into a virgin even as she bore Jesus. by one guy - Adam - sin entered the international. and through one guy - Jesus Christ - mankind has a wish of salvation.

There had to be a perfect sacrifice for sin. The blood of bulls and goats could never take away sin but only cover it for one year. Hebrews 10: 4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Hebrews 10: 12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; 2 Corinthians 5: 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Because GOD can do anything but defy his own nature.

Sin or defiance of GODs law requires GOD to punish.

IF he let anyone slide, he would be guilty of being an unfair judge or a respecter of persons.

Jesus came because we have already been judged and we all deserve hell.. someone needed to pay for our sins, so Jesus paid for them as he didnt have any of his own to pay.
