Jesus the First Born Son of God
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God.This shows us Let us go to John 1 and see what is written about the Son Of God. Jesus’ distinct and infinite personality. He was there with God from the very beginning. It shows His relationship with God. Jesus has a very intimate relationship with God His Father.John 1: 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.This verse shows us the deity of Jesus. Also it tells us that Jesus has the power to create. 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.This tells us that Jesus became flesh. Jesus did this because God told Him to. It says "was made flesh". God made Him flesh just like He made you and I flesh. His nature was totally human, and his glory "as of the only begotten of the Father." This shows you the relationship He had with God the Father. He was "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.This verse consummates Jesus’ identification: "The only begotten son, who is in the bosom of the Father." He hath declared Him. "This is fulfilling the significance of the title "LOGOS." the WORD." The words "the only begotten which is in the bosom of the Father," expresses both Jesus’ eternal union with God the Father in the Godhead and the intimacy and love between them. Jesus sharing all of His Fathers counsels and enjoying all His love. In 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. God tells us just how much He loves each of us in 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. This must not be taken to mean that Jesus became the only begotten Son by this birth for He was His son from the beginning. John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh. The love and greatness of gods’ gift is in the sonship of Jesus who God gave. Jesus’ Sonship was not the effect of His being given. In 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. This tells us the full revelation of Gods character and will. It also tells us of His love and grace as shown in the name of Jesus, who has unique relationship with God His Father. God sent His only begotten Son as an act of faith. In 1 John 4:9 it says, "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." This does not mean that when Jesus was born in Bethlehem that He then became His son. God sent His only begotten son "into the world". It means that He was already His son from the beginning. Jesus already was. He did not just become Gods only begotten son.In Luke 2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. This tells us that Jesus was Mary’s firstborn son. Colossians1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature. This shows Jesus the son’s eternal relationship with God His Father. And it means Jesus was the "firstborn" before all creation. Other title of Jesus Christ as the "Son of God" are: 1. His son: 1 Thessalonians 1:10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come. 2. "His own Son" Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? 3. "His only begotten Son" 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. 4. "The Son of His love", Colossians 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son. The Son, Jesus, is the eternal object of Father Gods love. John 17:24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovest me before the foundation of the world. Jesus is the sole Revealer of Father God’s character. 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. Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.John 1 tells us that God the Father and Jesus His Son existed before He came to earth as a man. It says that the "WORD" existed in the beginning and that the "WORD" is the Son who became flesh and dwelt among us. When God said "Psalms 2:7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. And quoted in 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, to day have I begotten thee. All this refers to the birth of Jesus Christ. God knew what was in store for His son Jesus before He ever sent Him here. Jesus knew what was in store for Him before he came to do all that He did for you and I. So as you celebrate His birthday, which was not December the 25, remember what all of this was for. It was not for the gifts that you could receive for you have received the most wonderful gift of all and that was Jesus Christ! It is not about the lights you put up and go to look at for Jesus is the light of the world and you need no other lights. It is not about all the food you can eat because you are feed daily all the food you need by the WORD. God has given each of us the best gift that we could ever have and that is life forever and always with Jesus. I pray as you go about this season of joy and love that you never leave Jesus Christ out of your Christmas. For with out Jesus Christ you would never have a Christmas.
May God bless and keep you always in His loving arms. And may you always walk with Jesus as you walk your path each new day.
