How do we know the eternal sonship of Christ is true?

Answered in 1 source

We know the eternal sonship of Christ is true through biblical evidence that affirms His divinity and relationship with the Father before His incarnation.

The truth of Christ's eternal sonship is substantiated through multiple biblical references and theological understanding. The Apostle Paul, in Romans 1:4, affirms that Jesus was declared to be the Son of God with power by His resurrection from the dead, yet this does not negate His existence as the Son prior to His earthly life. The affirmation in Hebrews 1:2-4 states that He was appointed heir of all things and was involved in creation, demonstrating His divine nature. Furthermore, the eternal nature of Christ's sonship is a critical element of Trinitarian doctrine, indicating that He was always the Son in relation to the Father, not a title born out of His incarnation. As such, a denial of His eternal sonship leads to significant theological consequences, including a misunderstanding of His deity and the very nature of the Trinity.
