The "only Son, from the Father, full of grace and truth." (John 1:14) I, too, think the "begotten" (KJV) word has more impact on this truth. But for me, it may have to do with the fact I'm used to that version. I don't know.<br /><br />And God bless YOU!Cassy Benefieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01203982806852113112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19131075.post-48911914456424117092016-08-17T19:37:17.611-07:002016-08-17T19:37:17.611-07:00Beautifully said.

It is the word "begotten." Jesus is God's only begotten Son. That's an important distinction because scripture says that all believers are God's sons (John 1:12). This is one of the reasons I prefer the KJV. Jesus did not have a human father. God planted His seed in the womb of the virgin Mary, thus Jesus was fully God and fully man. The sin nature is passed through the male line (Adam sinned deliberately while Eve was duped.) Thus Jesus could not have an earthly biological father and be sinless. <br /><br />Otherwise I really enjoyed the post. Thank you for sharing the hug. May you have many more. God bless.
