JESUS CHRIST IS THE SON OF GOD

GOD BEGAT ISRAEL AND THE CHURCH

The word "begat" appears 228 times in the King James Bible.  With the exception of two times, it refers to a human child being born of a human father and mother.  The two exceptions are: 
Deuteronomy 32:18 - "Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee."  Note:  The context is Israel.
James 1:18 - "Of His own will begat He us with the Word of truth, that we should be a kind of first-fruits of His creatures."  Note:  The context is the Church.

JESUS HAD A HUMAN MOTHER BUT GOD IS HIS FATHER

Matthew 1:16 - "And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, Who is called Christ."
Luke 3:23 - "And Jesus Himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed ) the son of Joseph...."
John 1:14 - "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."
John 1:18 - "No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him."
John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
John 3:18 - "He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."
Acts 13:33 - "God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that He hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second Psalm, Thou art My Son, this day have I begotten Thee."
Hebrews 1:5 - "For unto which of the angels said He at any time, Thou art My Son, this day have I begotten thee?  And again, I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son?"
Hebrews 5:5 - "So also Christ glorified not Himself to be made an high priest; but He that said unto Him, Thou art My Son, today have I begotten thee."
1 John 4:9 - "In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him."
 
FAITH IN THE LORD JESUS, THE SON OF GOD, IS WHAT SAVES US!
