Sonship primarily refers to God in time and humanity by humbling Himself and taking the form of a servant, being found in the likeness of men. This is why the Son is the image of the invisible God. God is invisible and cannot be seen. The Son, the man Christ Jesus, had a real beginning in Bethlehem as to the humanity while as to His Divinity His "goings forth are from everlasting" ( Micah 5:2). There was a literal day when the sonship came into existence, and that He was begotten by the Holy Ghost.
This is why the Son is never found in the O.T. with exception to prophetic references. |
Very articulate and correct.
