The title ‘Son of God’ is not in itself a designation of personal deity or an expression of metaphysical distinctions within the Godhead. Indeed to be a ‘Son of God’ one has to be a being who is not God’ (“Trinity and Incarnation,” Ex Auditu, 7, 1991)
Professor Colin Brown – Fuller Theological Seminary

If we don’t know who Jesus is, then we don’t know who we are in Christ.
Anthony Buzzard, Bible Teacher – Author
Christianity is the only major world religion that discards its own founder’s creed. (Concerning post-biblical Christianity’s disregard for Jesus’ declaration of the Shema – Deut. 6:4 cf Mark 12:29.)
Anthony Buzzard, Bible Teacher – Author
Scholars have conducted a never-ending “quest for the historical Jesus,” implying that he was lost! But the quest had been successfully undertaken by Matthew and Luke and the rest of the NT writers! No need to look further. Jesus is there in the opening chapters of the NT. He is the Messiah and the supernaturally procreated Son of God.
