Re: Either Jesus is who He says He Is or He Isn't.
There is the 'literal son of God', and then there is the 'Son of God' that was being used in the Jewish religion.. an euphemism for a 'righteous man'. Then there is the 'spiritually adopted one' . .. or the attitude he is a human being, and we all are the sons and daughters of God.
So, which is it? All are dealing with the term 'Son of God', but all have very distinct meanings.
Well sure, you could appreciate some of the things Jesus said the same way you might a slogan on a bumper sticker or a t-shirt. As to the actual person of Jesus Christ, there really are only two possibilities, either He is the Son of God or He isn't. I'd be curious what this third option would be. He's sort of the Son of God? He's actually the nephew of God?
