Bible Answer:
Bible Texts:
There are more than several schools of
thought on this question and they are, that at ….
1.) His
Incarnation.
When the angel
spoke to Mary, and called Jesus, The Son Of God, this is when Jesus
became
The Son Of God, so,
many reason.
Luke 1:34,35 KJV
34 Then said Mary unto the angel,
How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35 And the angel answered and said
unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and
The Power Of The Highest shall
overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born
of thee shall be called The Son Of God.
2.) His
Baptism.
Some think that Jesus became “The Son
Of God,” at His baptism, when The Father in heaven spoke.
Matthew 3:16,17 KJV
16 And Jesus, when He was baptized,
went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were
opened unto Him, and He saw The Spirit Of God descending like A Dove,
and lighting upon Him:
17 And lo A Voice from heaven,
saying, This is My Beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
3.) His
Resurrection.
The Apostle Paul
states, He was declared to be The Son Of God.
Romans 1:3,4
KJV
3 Concerning His Son Jesus Christ
our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
4 And declared to be The Son Of
God with power, according to The Spirit Of Holiness, by the
resurrection from the dead:
4.) His
Ascension.
Seated on the right hand of The Father, is The Son.
Hebrews 1:1-4
KJV
1 God, who at
sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the
fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these
last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed
Heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds;
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:
4 Being made so
much better than the angels, as He hath by inheritance obtained a
more excellent name than they.
Incarnation, Baptism, Resurrection, Ascension, four theories, and
four theories wrong.

Me , Thou art My Son; this day* have I begotten thee.

so must The Son Of Man be lifted up:

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.
17 For God sent
not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world
through Him might be saved.

The Prince Of Peace.

Taking
upon Himself the form of man, The Lord Jesus, God's eternal Son
emptied Himself of heavenly glory to become mans Savior.
Philippians
2:7,8 KJV
7 But made Himself of no reputation,
and took upon Him the form of A Servant, and was made in the likeness
of men:
8 And being found in fashion as A
Man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the
death of the cross.
He
limited Himself To Being An Earthly Man.

KJV
14 Forasmuch then as the children
are partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part
of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the
power of death, that is, the devil;
15 And deliver them who through fear
of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16 For verily He took not on Him the
nature of angels; but He took on Him the seed of Abraham.
17 Wherefore in all things it
behoved Him to be made like unto His brethren, that He might be a
Merciful and Faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to
make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
18 For in that He Himself hath
suffered being tempted, He is able to succor them that are tempted.
For
His Earthly Stay, He Emptied Himself Of Equality With God.
John 14:28 KJV

Father is greater than I (Because

6 Who, being in
the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of A Servant,
and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being
found in fashion as A Man, He humbled Himself, and became
obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God
also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above
every name:
10 That at the
name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things
in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that
every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory
of God
The Father.

born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of
man, but of God.
