Because, as Christians, we believe the Bible to be the word of God and in His word, He tells us that Jesus is His son!

Matthew 16:16-17
"Simon Peter answered, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.' Jesus replied, 'Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.'"

We don't think that Jesus is the Son of God, we know that He is. God created Adam and Eve, and they sinned, but God loved them, and He loved us even before we were even near existing. He promised to send his Son, Jesus, to die from our sins.
Not to mention, that Jesus himself said that he was the Son of God. What more proof do you need from that? Jesus was sinless, therefore when He said it, He wasn't lying.

because the old testament said there would be a savior (the christ) Not that jesus fits ANY of the description from the old testament. I honestly think he was an awesome prophet and he meant that we are all children of the creator. In truth, he just had a great PR department that got things rolling.

He said it, and knowing He never lied, I tend to believe Him. The Old Testament prophesies concerning the Messiah were fulfilled in Him. Those who knew Him when He walked the earth, Peter, John, Matthew, James and later, through an encounter with the risen Christ, Paul, all proclaimed this without waiver and many of those who truly believed Him died for that belief.

first of all, becuase the bible says so, second, because we've seen may great miralces done in the name of Jesus, son of God, and thirdly, becuase it's apretty sweet deal that pople on earth get becuase of Jesus: we get to go to heaven, and all we have to do is believe him. This would not be possible unles she was the son of God

Christ said that Scriptures said that "we are gods".
In that we have a spirit, energy body if you will, that is godlike. So if we are gods? Why couldn't he be the son of God?
