What does the Bible say about Christ's eternal sonship?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that Christ is the eternal Son of the Father, essential to understanding who God is.

The doctrine of Christ's eternal sonship is fundamental to the Christian faith, as outlined in 2 John 9, which states that those who do not abide in the doctrine of Christ do not have God. This doctrine explains that Christ is not merely a son by covenant or through the Incarnation, but is eternally begotten of the Father, existing before all creation. Mr. Philpott was a key figure in defending this orthodoxy, emphasizing that if there is an eternal Father, then there must necessarily be an eternal Son. Denying Christ's eternal sonship leads to a misunderstanding of both God and salvation.
