Son of God

Messiah's theological title

Son of God is a title for Jesus Christ in Christian theology, expressing his divine nature and unique relationship to God the Father.

The phrase appears throughout the New Testament and forms a cornerstone of Christian doctrine about Jesus's identity.

Outside religious contexts, it sometimes appears ironically or hyperbolically for someone acting self-important: He walks around like he's the Son of God.
