It is very perplexing to see "Son of God" is often capitalized differently among the 54 editions of the Bibles found at Biblegateway.com

Son Of God In studying the Bible for “the Son of God” is very important to pay close attention to the capitalization of the words “God,” “god(s),” “Son,” and “son(s).” Possibly even more perplexing is that the same verse or verses, among the more than fifty different versions or editions of the ...read more

The Prophecy Of Our Messiah Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Dec 18, 2021

R.C. Sproul once said, “What we celebrate is not so much the birth of a baby, but the incarnation of God Himself.” (Critical concept to remember – not just a birthday celebration!) Today, it is my prayer that we would be focused on this truth and that we’d see this story in a fresh light!
