Jesus, the Son of God

The idea that God has a son is considered blasphemous to Muslims due to its challenge against Islam’s monotheistic beliefs. For Christians, to know the Son means to know the Father, and to deny the Son means to deny the Father. Therefore, Muslims must see and accept Jesus as God’s begotten Son, whom He gave for the salvation of the world.

Jesus’ sonship also reveals how we should view God the Father. Only through Jesus can we have a relationship with God and call Him our Heavenly Father. As stated in John 14:6, Jesus is the only way for us to come to God. Every believer's identity, promise, and inheritance falls on the truth of our adoption as sons and daughters through the atoning sacrifice of God’s Son, Jesus Christ.

Prayer

Lord, I pray you would reveal yourself to Muslims as God’s only begotten Son. I pray that this revelation would move their hearts to see God as a loving Father who would withhold nothing to bring them to salvation, not even His own son. May they see the beauty of your sacrifice and approach the throne room of grace as sons and daughters of the Most High.
