God's Child(ren)?

[theophilus]

My pastor conveniently forgot to quote the rest of the passage, which reads, “...and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.”

Now, if I have read the Bible correctly, Jesus is supposed to be the son of God.

His sonship was different in that he was always the Son of God. The angels were apparently considered sons of God but they were created while Jesus alsways existed.

Speaking of David and Solomon, I forgot to mention in my original post was the genealogy of Jesus. If Jesus was supposed to be born of a virgin, why does he even [i]have[\i] a genealogy? Joseph wasn't his biological father, so why would he have a bloodline?

The genealogy in Matthew shows that Joseph was descended from the kings of Israel and would presumably have been king if the monarchy had still existed. Jesus wasn't his biological child but considered legally his son because Joseph was married to Jesus's mother. It was through Joseph that he inherited the right to be the king of Israel.

Jesus was human as well as devine because he was born of Mary. Her genealogy is given in Luke 3. Here is a good article about the two genealogies:

If you think you have found an error in the Bible this site is a good place to look to see if there is an explanation for it:
