Jesus is God but He is also the begotten Son because He came to Earth to be born as a man. Thus He is both God and the Son of God.

Jesus was the Son in the sense that God conceived Jesus in the womb of Mary. No sex was involved, just a miracle. Jesus's conception and birth were entirely unique. Jesus was God in the sense that Jesus is considered to be the living Word of God, and carried God's mind, in whole or in part, via the Holy Spirit.
So many people refuse to believe God could or would do something like this, but then those same people proudly boast: "God can do anything!" Kinda makes you wonder eh? I know I do.

Okay here's how I understand it.
The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit (The three members of the trinity) compose what we call "God". So God is nothing less than all of these three, in one.
God is The Father, God is The Son, and God is the Spirit.
But, The Father is neither the son nor the spirit... It's sorta hard to explain/understand...
Therefore, the Son [Son of the Father(part) of God, could be the only son of God the Father...] Sorta make sense? At all? It's really confusing...

Jesus is GOD. HE is only the SON in the sense that the HOLY SPIRIT fertilized the egg to become human. Jesus' spirit is the HOLY SPIRIT. So in a 'way ' Jesus is the SON of GOD. Kind of like past, present and future existing all at the same time.

God the father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. Jesus is the begotten son of God. Begotten means "to cause to excist".

God = Father, Spirit, and Son. Jesus is called God's (the Father's) only begotten Son because he was born to a virgin - no earthly father, but a heavenly one.

There is no way to effectively win the heart of a cult member without the help of God. Just pray that God reveals the truth before it is too late.
I have tried many times to "convert" people by my own means, and it does not work. It only happens on God's time.

thy have no clue, they would rather make him into a 3 headed God, some of them even say that he was Michael the angel in heaven who was reincarnated into Jesus Christ. The trinity is a lie. begotten means beginning, bought into existence, they have no clue. Jesus is not God, he is the son of man and the son of god not God.

Jesus is not God. Jesus is the Son of God.. How do none of you "Christians" know the Holy Trinity? ie: Father, Son, and The Holy Ghost. aka - God, Jesus, and, well, the Holy Ghost (you know.. the spirit that visited the Feast of the Pentecost and cause everyone in attendence to speak in tongues?)
Edit:
**Sorry, I forgot about the fact that the Trinity is actually all one God. It's been a while since I've been to Sunday school.
Edit: what cult does this person belong to?
