John 1:18 No one has seen God at any time. The only unique (begotten) Son who is in (eis) the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him."
This may be one of the strongest NT passages declaring the eternal Sonship. Bill might have some exegetical comment. The thrust of this passage is this -- the unique Son of God is forever into (a part of , intimately incorporated ) the bosom (the center of life for the Father) of the Father. Sonship in (eis) the Father is a forecer circumstance.!!!!
