¿Qué significa “El Hijo de Dios”?

Almost every Muslim will deny that Jesus is the Son of God. For Muslims, “Son of God” means literally that God had sexual relations with a woman and fathered a baby. Is that what the Injil teaches? What the Injil means by “Son of God” is very different from what a Muslim means by “Son of God.” Let us study this subject carefully:

• The Qur’an and the Injil affirm that Isa had no human biological father.
• The Qur’an and the Injil affirm that God was not the father of Isa through a sexual act.
• The Qur’an and the Injil affirm that Isa was conceived through the Spirit of God.
• The Qur’an and the Injil affirm that Mary his mother was a virgin when he was born.
• The Qur’an and the Injil affirm that Isa is sinless.
• The Qur’an and the Injil call Isa the Word of God.

Hay un acuerdo significativo en las creencias sobre el nacimiento de Isa Al-Masih, pero el problema está en la terminología o el título que usamos. Es importante explicar qué significa el Injil cuando se menciona al “Hijo de Dios”:

• “Hijo de Dios” es un sinónimo de Cristo / Mesías en Su papel de profeta, sacerdote y rey.
• “Hijo de Dios” implica una relación única con Dios.
• “Hijo de Dios” implica inseparabilidad y reciprocidad con Dios.
• “Hijo de Dios” es aquel que tiene el carácter y la naturaleza de Dios.
• “Hijo de Dios” está en sumisión a Dios.

The Holy Bible style often repeated and paraphrased something twice or more. In the same way, “Son of God” in connection with two other terms: Christ and Messianic King. Here are all the paired or parallel titles involving Son of God, for example:

“Then Nathanael declared: “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.” (Injil John 1: 49)

“Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God.” (Injil Matthew 16: 16)
“And demons also came out of many, crying, “You are the Son of God!” But he rebuked them, and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.” (Injil Luke 4: 41)

“Martha said to him: Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, he who is coming into the world.” (Injil John 11: 27)

“These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.” (Injil John 20: 31)

Así que el significado del “Hijo de Dios” en contexto en el Injil incluye a Cristo o al Rey Mesiánico. Los tres papeles de Cristo (profeta, mensajero, sacerdote, mediador, intercesor y rey) están implícitos en los versículos acerca del Hijo.
