Is your inquiry related to "what is the nature of Jesus of Nazareth?"
First one must understand the Son of God existed with the Father in eternity.
John 1 makes this very clear.
Isaiah 44 and Daniel 7 compared to Revelation 1 is a good start to view attributes and compare.
I referenced attributes. What were you referring to?He brought into being all things through ten utterences,
How do reach the conclusion utterences are a son?
Maybe, I don't know,
But this I have to go on,
Psalms 2:6-7;
"It is I Who have anointed My king, upon Zion,
My holy mountain."
I am obliged to declare,
the Lord said to me,
"You are My son, I have this day begotten you."
(The day David was crowned)
(Rashi)

Jesus the Christ was not "created".
He IS Creator.
I referenced attributes. What were you referring to?
God's speech, which is the force that brings a created being into existence,
must be present forever,
so as to give it Life and existence.
Not following you.
How does that relate to what i posted?
Nechemiah 9:6 mentions no son.
Are you referring to Nehemiah 9:6?
Yes.
Are you saying that THAT particular verse clinches it entirely, that the living God did not have an only begotten Son, my friend?
Well, it goes on with following verses too.
no but they would be enough for me.
I have said the other day, what my started point is,
and I am very clear over what it is.
In short,
He was alone before Creation of the World,
so is He alone after it was created.
In the OP I posed a question,
it is not for me to answer it and try to give an explanation.
It is you and others who claim someone is God,
it is up to you and others to explain.
In Genesis God said this:
"And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:" ~Genesis 1:26
There's other verses, but i gotta focus on this video of Eric Metaxas leading the President at a prayer breakfast in singing Amazing Grace.
I'm floored. I was not expecting this, nor ready for it
More later, Robban.
The idea of a virgin being impregnated by a god wasn't exactly a new concept when the Gospels were written. I don't think it was ever supposed to make scientific sense. It's just how the authors communicated what they wanted to say about Jesus.Can God concieve a son?
How and in what form?
Ok, I will try and go to rest early for once, it is 00:30,
so it will be strange.
I'm back....it left me speechless.
Would you like a link to the video i just watched?
