How do we know that Jesus is the eternal Son of God?

Answered in 5 sources

The New Testament affirms Jesus as the eternal Son of God through various declarations and prophecies, revealing His divine essence and pre-existence.

The New Testament provides compelling evidence for the eternal nature of Jesus as the Son of God. For instance, in John 1:1, 'In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God,' emphasizes that Jesus, as the Word, existed from eternity. Moreover, His role as the only begotten Son signifies that He is unique in His relationship with the Father, as highlighted in John 3:16. This eternal sonship is foundational for understanding both the Gospel and the nature of God’s redemptive plan, where the Son willingly gives Himself for the elect, affirming His divine authority over salvation.
