Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 28 2010,20:02)Hi LU, I believe his monogenes sonship refers to his anointing from above at the Jordan when God first publically declared him to be His Son. After all rebirth from above is how we who follow him can become Sons and Daughters of God.Nick,You keep forgetting the “ONLY” Son part.
