ST. MATTHEW 3, VERSE 7
But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees
come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of
vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to
come?
John called the Jews the children of vipers, but they are
not really children of vipers or they are not really vipers;
they are from man, but only as an expression to describe
their evil deeds toward God, and toward the ones whom
He sent.
ST. MATTHEW 15, VERSE 24
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost
sheep of the house of Israel.
Jesus Christ (Ppuh) here called the Jews the lost sheep, they are
not really sheep and Jesus (Ppuh) did not mean to say that they
were, but just as an expression referring to them as being
lost as sheep.
I.JOHN 5 VERSES, 1 – 5
1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of
God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him
also that is begotten of him. 2 By this we know that we
love the children of God, when we love God, and keep
his commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we
keep his commandments: and his commandments are not
grievous. 4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the
world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world,
even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but
he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
Here John told that the one, who believes Jesus (Ppuh) is the
Christ, would be a son of God, and everyone who loves the
son of God, loves the Father. And, this can be achieved by
keeping the commandments of God, and, the love of God's
children whom He sends to us. John said, a true son of God
will always beat the world. Then John told about the sign of
this son of God, he said: who is that who will beat the world
but the one who believes that Jesus (Ppuh) is also a son of God.
These above verses not only clearly show us the meaning
of "son of God", but also a prophecy about another truthful
prophet (son of God, born of God) which was yet to be sent
to us after Jesus Christ (Ppuh), he would also beat the world, and
his sign, he would testify that Jesus (Ppuh) is the Christ sent from
God - (son of God, born of God).
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world:
and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even
our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that
believeth that Jesus is the son of God?
Everyone that is sent from God (born of God) will overcome
the world. God's truthful messengers were called His sons;
God doesn't have one son/messenger but many. The son
of God was an expression used to identify the truthful
messengers of God from the false ones.
LUKE 3 VERSE 38
Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which
was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.
In the above verse, Adam (Ppuh) who was the first man God created,
and from him created Eve, and from them created all man, was called
the son of God, yet we all agree that Adam (Ppuh) is not really a 'son of God',
but is God's servant, His first man creation, and His first prophet.
EXODUS 4 VERSE 22
And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD,
Israel is my son, even my firstborn:
The Lord, the Father, the only true God, called Israel (Ppuh) his
son, 'his firstborn'. Israel (Ppuh) was a truthful messenger sent by
God, he was not God's real son, but an expression as Israel (Ppuh)
was a true messenger sent of God.
Israel (Ppuh) was a true messenger sent by God, he was not really
the 'son of God' and not really 'his firstborn', even though
God called him that. The son of God who John told would
be sent after Jesus (Ppuh) and would overcome the world and
believe and testify that Jesus Christ (Ppuh) is also a son of God,
is not really a 'son of God' either, even though John called
him that, and even though John called all the ones that
God sends 'the children of God'. They are not really that,
but only an expression that they are not false evils and
sons of the devil. Same goes for the disciples and all who
believed in Jesus (Ppuh), they were not really the children of God
or really born of God, but human born of man, even though
they were called 'the children of God' by Jesus Christ (Ppuh).
If the expression 'son of God' means real son of God and
the term is not just being used as an expression, then God
has a lot of 'sons' and not only one son. God would then
have his first-born Israel; the eldest brother of his other
son Jesus Christ (Ppuh), plus a third one that John said would be
sent after Jesus (Ppuh); testifying that Jesus (Ppuh) is a truthful son of
God. Consequently, God has many real children, as John
called them 'children' because they are numerous.
If the expression 'son of God' means real son of God, then
God will not be the God of his son, and the son will not
call his Father, his 'God'. But would be a part of him, and
this real son would be sharing in the glory, the power, the
kingdom and the will of his Father forever and without end,
and these things would not be only to the Father. This would
be the opposite of what Jesus Christ (Ppuh) taught.
If the expression 'son of God' means real son of God, the
son then would be a part of the Father, and a God (or part
of God) since he came from Him, and was not created by
Him. The son then would be in control as the Father is, and
would have his own will, uncontrolled by the Father. So the
Father could not control the son as the son is a part of him
and was with him from the beginning. This would be the
opposite of what Jesus Christ (Ppuh) taught.
If the expression 'son of God' means real son of God, the
Father then could not take the will from the son, and the
son could do everything by himself, he could give, take,
judge, forgive and save. The Father then could not be
perfect without his other part; the son, since 'perfect' means
complete and 'complete' means not in need of anyone or
any other parts; and to be perfect by himself. This would
be the opposite of what Jesus Christ (Ppuh) taught.
Then the son would not be showed, told, commanded and
given things by the Father only with the permission and by
the wish of the Father (which the Father could take away
whenever he wants), but the son would be sharing all of
that or part of it. This would be the opposite of what Jesus
Christ (Ppuh) taught.
Or then, if all of that is not really the case, this son of God
is not a real son of God but was created as a servant of
God, commanded, told, showed, controlled, given to and
taking away from, owned and unable do to anything of
himself. Thus the son of God could only be an expression
used toward truthful prophet's messengers of God – which
is exactly what Jesus Christ (Ppuh) taught.
What did Jesus Christ (Ppuh) teach us about that?
