Is Jesus the only Son of God in the Bible?


Today, Christians believe Jesus is the 'Son of God'

On further study, the Bible used the word "Son" to describe normal human beings, Angels, Prophets and even Satan. "Son" was used in a figuarative sense to show a common purpose; a sign of respect, love and honour.

Jesus is 'the Son', not 'the son'

Christians will argue the Bible text "Son of God" appears with a capital 'S' in reference to Jesus, and small 's' for other 'sons'. However, this arguement is flawed as Jesus did not speak English, nor were the Gospels written in the English language.

Therefore, the capital 'S' and small 's' were later edits decided by English translators.
The table below lists the various Sons and Children of God.

What is The Bible?
The Bible is a canonical collection of texts sacred in Judaism and Christianity. There is no single "Bible" and many Bibles with varying contents exist. The term Bible is shared between Judaism and Christianity, although the contents of each of their collections of canonical texts is not the same



Different religious groups include different books within their Biblical canons, in different orders, and sometimes divide or combine books, or incorporate additional material into canonical books.

The Hebrew Bible, or Tanakh, contains 24 books. Christian Bibles range from the 66 books of the Protestant canon to the 81 books of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church canon.

The first part of Christian Bibles is the Old Testament, which contains, at minimum, the 24 books of the Hebrew Bible divided into 39 books and ordered differently from the Hebrew Bible. The Catholic Church and Eastern Christian churches also hold certain deuterocanonical books and passages to be part of the Old Testament canon.

The second part is the New Testament, containing 27 books: the 4 Canonical gospels, Acts of the Apostles, 21 Epistles or didactic letters, and the Book of Revelation.

Who is GOD?
In monotheism and henotheism, God is conceived as the Supreme Being and principal object of faith. The concept of God as described by theologians commonly includes the attributes of omniscience (infinite knowledge), omnipotence (unlimited power), omnipresence (present everywhere), omnibenevolence

(perfect goodness), divine simplicity, and eternal and necessary existence.

In theism, God is the creator and sustainer of the universe
In deism, God is the creator, but not the sustainer, of the universe
Monotheism is the belief in the existence of one God or in the oneness of God
In pantheism, God is the universe itself
In atheism, God is purported not to exist, while deemed unknown or unknowable within the context of agnosticism.
