While you "do enjoy" whatever it is you "do enjoy," meanwhile eternal life is in the Son of God. If the Son of God goes away, eternal life in the Son of God goes away.

I will go on to other indications that the eternal Son and eternal sons is quite revealed in the Bible.

If I am 'likened' to a buffalo do I become a buffalo?

If the verse is not clear, it is saying that Christ as the Son of God abides perpetually as the unique priest. So Christ is the eternal Son of God as High Priest into perpetuity - forever.

Melchesedek in the Old Testament was a shadow, a pointer to this eternal Son of God and perpetual priest.

How long into the future will the Son of God reign?

The dominion of the Son of Man is "an eternal dominion" and Psalm 72 describes some scenes of this Messianic Kng's reign - that is the Son of God as Messiah. It starts with this:

"O God, give Your judgment to the king and Your righteousness to the son of the king." (v.) This is about the Messianic Son of David who will be God the Son as king over the earth forever.

"They will fear You as long as the sun endures and as long as the moon endures. Throughout the generations." (Psalm 72:5)

The sun and the mooon will endure far beyond the end of the millennial kingdom.
The Son of Man will be king longer than the sun or moon would be able to endure.

In His days the righteous will flourish, and there will be an abundance of peace until the moon is no more." (v.7)

The Son of Man's eternal dominion is able to outlast the existence of the moon.

"His name will be forever;
As long as the sun endures, His name will spread; And men will be blessed in Him;
All the nations will call Him blessed." (v.17)


For eternity His name will be.
The hope for a temporary Son of God is a vain hope.

He is Jehovah God whose name is glorious forever -

"Blessed be Jehovah God, the God of Israel who alone does wonderous deeds;
And blessed be His glorious name forever;
And may His glory fill the whole earth. Amen and Amen. " (v.18,19)


This is the conclusion of Psalm 72 which is about the Messianic King.

Do his disagreements with you mean he is a blasphemer and a heretic, to your way of thinking? Has anything divegeester has said - about his own faith in Jesus - made you think he faces "damnation"?

The subject: The eternal Son and eternal sons

I see not effective argument saying that either are temporary.
Specific evidence from the Scriptures is ignored and padded with bragging as a
feeble substitute and some meaningless little high fiving.

There is no quotation of "eternal Son" is the only reason for unbelief submitted.

Is divegeester's "salvation" in jeopardy, according to your beliefs, if he doesn't subscribe to your "eternal son" doctrine?

That is not the subject of the thread.
It's about the eternal Son and the eternal sons.

If it does not affect walking the Christian walk and it doesn't have any bearing on "salvation", then aren't you just talking about counting angels on the head of a pin, as it were?
