It's too hard to make the connection that when HE breathes into them and says receive THE HOLY SPIRIT that HE quickened them by HIS LIFE-GIVING SPIRIT?
If HE came forth from GOD, the visible image of the invisible GOD the exact representation of HIS being and the full radiance of HIS GLORY than HE had all authority to say he who has seen me has seen the father
for a spirit is invisible
and a spirit can only be made manifest by a visible vessel

All this talk out of your mouth followjesus so I have two questions for you. (1), What does it mean to call Jesus the Son of God? And (2), can you give me an example of a son that does not share the same nature as its father? Just one example! 
IN GOD THE SON,
bluto
IN GOD THE SON,
bluto
lol....have i said Jesus didnt hare His nature? some folks need to learn reading comprehension.
Yeah Jesus shared Gods Nature, but you know what? we are One With Jesus, Jesus One with God His nature is imparted to all His children, does that mean we are God? does a son who shares His fathers nature, is that making Him His father? or would He be the Son of His father? Gods Son, Jesus Christ very simple. thats where the Life is offered its not to say " Jesus is God" theres a reason the entire Gospel is about the Son of God. a reason John makes clear " Jesus is the Son of God" rather than spend yime correcting and arguing with people, this site would be alot better if we all heard first what was being Said. here very simply what im saying
john 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.<<<<< now consider John saying very clearly this
f we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son. 10He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 11And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
its the christian faith God sent Jesus, His only son, to save the World through Belief in the name of the Only begotten, Jesus. you can argue that fact, but its best to stick with this plain clear obvious true witness of God " That Jsus Christ is His Son, and eternal Life is only found in his son.
and if you have an issue with me talkking...why come to a post like this ? its really kind of pretty evident in the op, which was why i left it for people to consider, i would have been thrilled if it would have just been read and considered....... the way people approach others here in this forum, is not a christian way of doing things. i would have thought Gods witness in the op, Jesus witness all the apostles all that scripture may have at least made someone think...hmmmmmm
its really not that complicated. The Gospel is really clear, accept Jesus the Son of God have eternal Life. simple there is no reason to raise the wuestion " Is Jesus God?" the question is " Is Jesus Christ the Son of God?"
right ,thats why Jesus said this
john 2:19-21 "Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? 21But he spake of the temple of his body."
and thats what paul is saying to believers about them being the temple of God. all of Gods children receive Gods spirit living in them. the only way it comes is through Faith in Gods Son.
Father, Son, and you........all 3 have the spirit of God. God is truly unseen, Jesus was sen by many, even when transfigured and God says what of Him more than once?" this is my son ...hear him." isnt God speaking and saying this enough for us to accept that Jesus is the Son of God? His spirit is of the Father as all children receive thier fathers spirit.
the importance of accepting Jesus is the Son is thats where our faith makes us children of God through faith in His Son, and when we are made His children we also receive the spirit of God. begotten through faith in Jesus the Word, the Son of God. it says " the word was made flesh, an we beheld His glory the glory of the only begotten)
then were told this
2 corinthians 3:18 "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
thje Lord is Jesus, the Son of God, the Christ. ( acts 2:33-35) were being made into children of God through Faith. conformed to the Likeness of Jesus, ( by His spirit ( john 6:63) who is the likeness of God. thats why we need to believe He is Gods Son. Jesus was seen by John, God has never been seen but By Jesus His Son. we will one day see God, and Jesus will still be His Son, as will we be. but well all have Gods nature because of what Jesus has done for us
v14:26 "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Jesus spirit is his word, its the knowledge in them. He is telling us Who God really is, what God really wants of Us, How much God truly Loves us because mankind had become blind. so we accept His testimony of the Father God. the gospel, and then after He was resurrected and went to the throne to sit at Gods right Hand He sent the Holy spirit into Our Hearts. the spirit of Jesus gets into Our hearts through faith in Him, Believing His words, the knowledge in them. and then because of that, He sends the spirit of God, the holy ghost. its a protion of God, who is spirit. His spirit is not limited to one place, He is able to send His spirit into those who believe in His son, through What His word says.
the good news is that God is with us, through faith in Jesus His son. we have then Jesus spirit through the gospel that changes our hearts and makes thenm clean, so that Gods Holy spirit can live in them created By the spirit of Jesus we receive through Faith. in the end we have Both the Son, and the father and are bound with Him because of the holy ghost that is in God, Jesus, and us.

What???? Are you nuts? I mean really! First thing I noticed you must be one of those “christens” that does not believe all of Scripture is from G-d and alive and for us today and have thrown the Old Testament out like the baby with the bath water.
Ok. I’m a Jew how can I possibly think G-d died? How can I reconcile this?
The question is can G-d die?
G-d as God cannot die. But G-d as Messiah can.
Can G-d be on Earth and in heaven at the same time? I’m so glad you asked… look at the Scripture where G-d came to Earth as an angle, oh, Abraham, Samson’s parents, Gideon, oh what is her name, the women who had Ismael, oh yah, Hagar (when she cryed G-d made a well) thses are off the top of my head. The point is we know G-d can still do G-d stuff and leave heaven in a different form. He accepted praise and worship, if angle they would not.
Y-shua is the Son. No problem. G-d calls Ephraim and Manasseh His son so no big stretch He would call Messiah His Son.
What we do know about Messiah. Messiah has to be a Jew, atonement comes from the blood and death, from Messiah all of the world will know about G-d (name another Jew who has made G-d known like Y-shua).
See Messiah is 100% G-d and 100% man. Y-shua is the G-d Man. G-d stepped out of heaven, while still being G-d, like only an omnipresent G-d can do, took on the form of a man Messiah…. The Son of G-d…. G-d…. the G-d -Man 100% G-d-100%Man… AMEN!!!!!!!

The sacrifice for sin was death. Just as any animal sacrifice had to physically die. The bible says Jesus yielded up his Spirit. Gave into death. But yes God is God and in 3 days his resurrection proved Jesus conquered death.
They speared him to make sure he was dead. It had to happen this way to save us as for a final atonement of all sin.

Just thinking on the title of the OP..
Begotten, the product of procreation of a man and a woman.
Mary became pregnant by the Spirit of God, thus her child was begotten of Mary and the Father.
All others were either created, Adam and Eve, or procreated.
Please do not bring up test-tube, surrogate or the like, they are still from a man and a woman.
Man has never created anything, just moved things around within the energy and matter (slow energy) of what we call the universe.

Perhaps a little more 'detail may be helpful....
women don't 'beget....they 'conceive...they are the 'recipient of what is given to them.
only Males 'beget....carrying within them the 'beginning of new life....hence, as of the (only) begotten of the Father (male).
But having said that it takes both male and female having different roles to produce new life.

In the context of the OP this is ABSOLUTELY incorrect.
I already demonstrated this earlier but will repeat:
The word in Greek is
μονογενής
[FONT="]meaning:
[/FONT]3439 monogenḗs (from 3411 /misthōtós, "one-and-only" and 1085 /génos, "offspring, stock") – properly, one-and-only; "one of a kind" – literally, "one (monos) of a class, genos" (the only of its kind).
To repeat there is NOTHING about procreation that can be assumed from this word.
[FONT="]It means unique or one of a kind!
