Jesus is the only begotten Son of God. What do you think of the Bible verses below?
Thanks a lot!
Jesus admitted that his Father is his Source of Life.
John 5:26 states “For just as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted also to the Son to have life in himself”. The Father gave LIFE to Jesus and Jesus admitted it.
Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten(Gennao) thee. Acts 13:33
The word begotten in Greek is gennao. It means “to be born” –Strong’s dictionary defines this as procreate (properly of the father, but by extension of the mother); figuratively to regenerate: - bear, beget, be BORN, BRING FORTH, conceive, be delivered of, gender, MAKE, spring.
At Acts 13:33, it states the Father “has MADE/BRING FORTH” the Son. This verse talks about the relationship of God to his Son whom he MADE/BROUGHT FORTH (Gennoa).
Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten(Gennao) thee. Acts 13:33

Jesus' Father, Jehovah gave life to his Son. At John 6:57, Jesus said: "I live because of the Father."

Hi, hopefully this will help
Jesus Christ did not begin life here on earth. He himself spoke of his prehuman heavenly life. (John 3:13; 6:38, 62; 8:23, 42, 58) Jesus was with God since the beginning (before the earth was created) Jesus watched his heavenly father create the universe and everything on the earth. Bearing in mind that Jesus is an angel, a very special one to God. Jesus is special because he was the only thing ever that God made on his own. Everything else God made, Jesus also helped out with. Because Adam and Eve (the original parents) disobeyed God and Satan set a challenge to God in heaven saying that humans could live better without God. So God cast Satan out of heaven along with his demons. So now, Satan is on the earth with his spirit creatures. When Adam and Eve disobeyed, there was no hope for anybody on the earth. People would die and tnot go to heaven or anywhere, just stay in the ground. God felt sorry for humans and so he sent his son, Jesus, in exchange for many on the earth. Adam (a perfect man) took perfection away, so Jesus (also a perfect man) brought back the hope of perfection for the future. That balanced it out. So therefore, it was prophisied that the Messiah (Jesus) was to come to the earth, many years before he actually did come. God wanted everyone to know that Jesus was coming to the earth, so therefore he put out a description of Jesus in the bible so that when Jesus was born on the earth, people would know that he was the Messiah. Mary gave birth to Jesus on the earth and Mary and Joseph gave life to Jesus on the earth, when God gave life to Jesus in heaven.
It is very long (as you can tell). I am a Jehovah's Witness if you go onto the JW website, it may tell you how you can learn more about Jesus and God, you do not need to pay anything, The website is: www.watchtower.org this should hopefully help you out. Sorry for the essay above ^.

Jehovah God gave life to Jesus in his heavenly existence & transfered his life to earth to fulfill Jehovah's purpose for earth to give his life as a ransom for man
The Bible verses you have quoted are correct.
Remember that Jesus was born without any blemish of sin. A different birth the way humans are conceived today.
Jesus always submitted to his Father's will & never took credit for anything that Jehovah his Father gave to him.
Please continue to look to the scriptures for the answer to your questions.

Jehovah the maker of heaven and earth made man in his likeness, Is man also God? Hardly! The correct translation of John 1:1 is In the beginning the Word was, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god.

Jehovah God is Jesus Christ Father. Joseph is his stepfather.Mary is Jesus Christ mother. Jesus Christ is not God in the flesh and never said he was God. who was he praying to? not himself. He always said that he cannot do anything without the Father in heaven.

Only in that He was made flesh. Jesus is God in the flesh.
"In the beginning(notice how these are the same words used in the very BEGINNING of the Bible) was the WORD(Jesus), and the WORD(Jesus) was with God, and the WORD(Jesus) WAS GOD." John 1:1
Jesus=fully God and fully man
