Immediately following his baptism.
Matthew 3:13 Then Jesus came from Gal´i·lee to the Jordan to John, in order to be baptized by him. 14 But the latter tried to prevent him, saying: “I am the one needing to be baptized by you, and are you coming to me?” 15 In reply Jesus said to him: “Let it be, this time, for in that way it is suitable for us to carry out all that is righteous.” Then he quit preventing him. 16 After being baptized Jesus immediately came up from the water; and, look! the heavens were opened up, and he saw descending like a dove God’s spirit coming upon him. 17 Look! Also, there was a voice from the heavens that said: “This is my Son, the beloved, whom I have approved.”

Well, I am not certain, but it is not like Mary and Joseph were unaware that He was conceived by the Holy Spirit. The archangel Gabriel having told them both about this. So perhaps he was told by them. However, at the same time, the person that was born to Mary and through her took on human nature, was at the same time, the Word of God who had existed before the beginning of time, with God the Father and the Holy Spirit, so at a certain point after He had become incarnate by the Virgin Mary, he would have realized that He was the Son of God. As a matter of fact though I do not know how He came to this realization.

one million) Jesus is the two. in the trinity, there is God the daddy, God the Son (Jesus) and God the Spirit. 2) That observe isn't particularly in the Bible, besides the shown fact that it speaks of it, after Jesus ascended into Heaven. The Holy Spirit comes down and rests on the heads of the apostles 3) there's a distinction between Son of God, and toddler of God. Son of God refers back to the Messiah, whilst a toddler of God refers to mankind.

If Jesus hadn't realized that He was 'special' and the Son of God up this time, . . .when He came foreward to be baptisted by John the Baptist in the Jordan river, and the Holy Spirit settled on Him as a dove, . . .then He surely realized who He really was, for the Father above told Him in a voice at was audiable to everyone!!!

After hitting the pipe a few too many times!!! I know a guy who smoked a bag of Maui Wowie and wound up thinking HE was the son of God. I don't think he ever got around to forming a band with 12 other tokers, and had them make up a story about him being the messiah though!

He never had to realize it. He has always been throughout time. When did God realize that he was God? Jesus has existed forever. He is part of the God Head. The Holy Trinity. How do you discover something that is intrinsic? It is a reality, not an idea.

around the time of 12 years of age he said, "I must be about my Father's business." - luke2:29
as with all Jews, from the time he was old enough to read he was required to study the Torah.
its also possible that his parents/relatives, close family friends.. community, shared with him the unusual events surrounding his conception and birth.

No, that was decided more than three hundred years after he died , as a marketing tool by the council of Nicea organized by a pagan roman emperor.

He always knew. When his mother found him after he got lost in the temple when he was 12, he told his mother "Why did you look for me, dont you know i have to be in my Father's house?"
He always knew who he was.
