The Two Sons Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Sep 25, 2020

The Son Of God.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 1, 2022

If these mere created beings were called ‘gods’ to whom “the word of God CAME,” how can Jesus’ assailants accuse Him of blasphemy, “whom the Father hath sanctified (set apart as holy), and sent unto the world?”

THE SON OF GOD. John 10:31-36. JOHN 10:31. It is hardly surprising that the mob were in the mood to lynch Jesus! Jesus had just made the bold declaration, ‘I and my Father are one’ (cf. John 10:30).
