Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee
(or literally)
Today you have become my son

Baptism of Christ

Jesus was the son of God, but he became a son not at his birth, but at his baptism. The key word here is today. Jesus became God’s son on that day. The redactors of the canonical gospels made forgeries to the story of the baptism so that people wouldn’t know that he was begotten of God on that day and not at or before his birth.

The fact that they removed these words can be proven through the bible itself. It is one of the strongest pieces of evidence that the bible is not perfect and not infallible. They cut this phrase out of the original gospel and made their copies and left only “This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased”. There were other verses that they didn’t think about modifying — fortunately!

The following verses is not only a prophecy from Psalms 2, but also there are verses in Hebrews that show the undeniable fact that God announced to Jesus that he was begotten on that day:

Psa 2:7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

Heb 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? (referring to 2Sa 7:14)

Heb 5:5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.

For what motive did they remove this phase from the bible?

The event of the baptism of Jesus is probably the one most important event in the life of Jesus because it clearly shows exactly who Jesus was. The fact that some wicked men agreed together to take out this part of the story of the baptism of Jesus shows that the roman church purposely and conscientiously meant to make a god of Jesus, or rather the Almighty God of heaven. Because if Jesus became the begotten son of God at the age of 30, then he wasn’t born “THE Son of God” , The “Only Begotten Son of God”, in a literal sense where the Holy Ghost impregnated a virgin and she gave birth to a god-man.

Whether or not you believe in the “virgin birth”, is pretty much a mute point really, since Jesus becoming “the first begotten son of God“, when he was baptized at the age of 30, makes Jesus an adopted son of God, and not a literal begotten son as they would have you believe. Nevertheless, if Jesus metaphorically became a son of God at his baptism, then there is no need for him to be born of a virgin.

Having both of these concepts in the Bible at the same time creates a contradiction.

Either he was born of a virgin and was a man-god or he was an adopted son of God at his baptism which meant he was merely a “son of man” the same as the rest of us, born in a natural way with an earthly father and mother.  This is the reason the redactors had to remove the phrase, “thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee”.

What makes this story even more believable is that in the original unaltered text it also says Jesus is his, “first begotten son“, not “only begotten son” as it is in the King James Version of the bible. The phrase “only begotten son” is a mistranslation. This means that Jesus would not be the only son of  God, just the first. Which means that there would be other sons and daughters of God, just like it says in John chapter 1. “…to them gave he the power to become the sons of God…” (joh 1:12).

The Gospel according to the Hebrews says, first begotten son

Heb 1:6: And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he sayeth, And let all the angels of God worship him.

When the Lord came up out of the water the whole fount of the Holy Spirit descended upon Him and rested on Him saying, ‘My Son, in all the prophets was I waiting for You that You should come and I might rest in You. For You are My rest. You are My first begotten Son that prevails forever.’ ”

As it was spoken by God,

…as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

(just as God dwelt IN Jesus)

And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

(God wants us all to be sons and daughters)

At Jesus’ baptism at the river Jordan, the Spirit of God Himself entered into Jesus at the moment. That is exactly the reason Jesus said that the Father is IN me. It is the same exact thing that happens with us, we are God’s temple and he lives IN us and we are sons of God and daughters of God, like Jesus was a son of God. This is obviously why Jesus referred to himself more than 80 times in the New Testament: “the son of man”. It was because he was a son of a man and a woman just as we are.

What did God mean by “begotten”?

Paolo Veronese, The Resurrection of Christ, c. 1570

In an ordinary sense, begotten means that a son or daughter is born to a parent — this is in a physical sense. What the roman church meant to show by re-wording the gospels was to try to show that Jesus was a literal son of God — begotten by God. What they try to show by the way that they altered it in the canonnical gospels of Matthew and Luke is that the Holy Ghost “came upon” Mary and impregnated her and she begat a god-man.

2Sa 7:14 I will be his father, and he shall be my son.

The pagans worshiped their god-men

In many pagan religions their great men were made into gods and worshiped as such. The Greeks had this belief and they used this idea to try and win over pagans to Christianity. This seems to be the reason that they made Jesus into a god and worked the story of the virgin birth into the gospels. Another myth amongst many pagans was that their gods were triune — that is three gods in one. But the Lord God is ONE LORD not three.

Without a doubt, this is where the idea of the trinity originated. However, with Jesus being a god that only made two, they needed a third diety to make it a triune god. I suppose that is where the dogma of the “holy spirit” came in. The problem with this though, is that only God is holy and he is a spirit. Thus the “holy spirit” is actually God himself and not another god.

The Dogma of the Holy Trinity is not Scriptural nor is it true

So with Jesus being begotten in a metaphorical way only and the “holy spirit” actually being God himself, there is no triune god in Christianity and the dogma of the “Holy Trinity” is nothing more than a dogma of the roman church having absolutely no scriptural basis at all.

The fact of the matter is that anyone who believes Jesus’ teachings and does them is born of God and is a son of God.

What’s more is that whoever loves God is also a son of God and loves Jesus also. So this means that there are literally millions of sons of God all around the world.

1Jn 5:1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.

Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Mat 10:40  He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

In the very first gospel that was written by Matthew in the Hebrew language, known as the Gospel of the Hebrews, was the only gospel that was used by the early Christians, in fact the only writtings that were accepted by them. These are the unadulterated words from their beloved gospel:

After saying many things, this Gospel continues: “After the people were baptized, Jesus also came and was baptized by John. And as Jesus came up from the water, Heaven was opened, and He saw the Holy Spirit [God] descend in the form of a dove and enter into Him.

And a voice from Heaven said, ‘You are my beloved Son; with You I am well pleased.’ And again, ‘Today I have begotten You.’ “Immediately a great light shone around the place; and John, seeing it, said to Him, ‘Who are you, Lord? And again a voice from Heaven said, ‘This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.’ Then John, falling down before Him, said, ‘I beseech You, Lord, baptize me!’ But He forbade him saying, ‘Let it be so; for thus it is fitting that all things be fulfilled.’” (Gospel of the Hebrews)

In this gospel the very first story was about Jesus’ baptism — there was nothing at all about the Virgin Birth!
