So, Jesus is the son of God.. but he is also God? how can that be? There cant be two Gods, since Christianity is a monotheistic religion and the bible teaches you so. Please explain..

The holy trinity--Jesus, Holy Spirit, God --> They are one God in different forms.
Think about H20 (water)--It can be liquid, solid, or gas--But each is H2O.

Jesus is God's Son NOT in the sense that the Father procreated Jesus, but rather in the sense that Jesus Himself is eternally God by nature ( even though He was here in human nature, He could put His Godly powers aside..He can do that because He is God ), just like the Father is.
Ancient Semitics used the phrase " Son of " to indicate likeness or sameness of nature and equality of being. That is why when Jesus claimed to be the Son of God, His Jewish contemporaries understood He was making a claim to be God ( John 19:17, also 5:18 )
It is hard to understand God's nature- including His triune nature. We do not have the mind like God's mind, and we cannot fully comprehend an infinite God.

Well God the Holy Spirit and Jesus are called the trinity which is considered a body of one. God could be seen as the one in charge, Jesus the one that went and did, and the Holy Spirit as the one behind the scenes who lives with us. so they still are all one. its just God in different forms. this is why everyone says God is unbelievable. i try not to think of it. But the three are all equal. hope i helped!

Im confused from your question....Jesus is God's son...John 3:16 For GOD so loved the world that he sent his only begotten son that whom so ever believeth in Him shall not parish but have everlasting life.....see in that verse God loved the world enough to send his Son JEsus for us!!!!
Unless you are talking about the trinity God the son, God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit...

Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, 3 in 1, aka the Holy Trinity, it's something ppl can't understand, there is only 1 God, yes, but Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are three different persons(not people) in one,

Jesus, God, and the Holy Ghost are One God, just three forms.

Jesus is the son of God. He is not God. That is all there is to it. Everything else is make believe.

It is all part of the trinity, The father, son and the holy spirit. However, i don't recall hearing that jesus is god..... He's the son of the father, God.

we think of a son as being one thing ... i look at it as God is a 3-fold being like we are with a spirit mind and body ... Jesus is the physical part and manifestation of God .. the go between part that we communicate to God by and through ..
