Tnx so much Pope (for ur time to answer me), BUT if it was improperly translated, is there any revised version to change it? Is it true that this word "Begotten" has now been thrown out of the MOST ACCURATE version of the Bible? The R.S.V.? Because it can create unnecessary conflict between the ???nos of Christians and a thousand million nos. of Muslims of the world in making this statement.
And pardon me again, if the correct translation should have been "Only Son"...according to your own God-given records, God has so many sons?
e.i.
"Adam, which was the SON OF GOD" Luke 3:38
"That the SONS OF GOD saw the daughters of men, and they were fair"
"And when the SONS OF GOD came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them..." Genesis 6:2&4
"...Israel is MY SON, even my firstborn" Exodus 4:22
"...for I (God) am a FATHER to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn." Jeremiah 31:9
"...the Lord hath said unto me, (David) Thou art MY SON: this
day have I BEGOTTEN thee." Psalms 2:7
"For as many as are led by the SPIRIT of God, they are the SONS OF GOD" Romans(1) 8:14
Which means, that in the language of the Jew, every righteous person who followed the Will and Plan of God, was a SON OF GOD. It was a metaphorical descriptive term, commonly used among Jews.
AMROLA, there will be no fighting here as long as respect and understanding other peoples view is there.
I believe that if we show respect,...we gain respect.
One reason we are in this thread is to educate our selves and not to insult. Thank u.
