Jesus was declared the Son of God with power by His resurrection from the dead.
The declaration of Jesus as the Son of God is based on His resurrection, which is a pivotal event affirming His divine nature. Romans 1:4 states that He was declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness by the resurrection from the dead. This resurrection justified His claims and affirmed that He is indeed divine. Throughout His ministry, He performed miracles and preached with authority, which were works that bore witness to His divine sonship (John 5:36). As our High Priest and Savior, only the God-Man could fulfill the law and offer perfect atonement, making His resurrection an indispensable demonstration of His power and identity as the Son of God.
