The term "son" in the Gospel must be
evaluated through esoteric interpretation

It needs to be made clear that a lack of esoteric interpretation ap-
pears in various forms in Islam, Christianity and Judaism. Therefore,
we should not regard this as a deficiency peculiar to Christians alone.

However, given the subject matter, we shall be discussing only that
part that involves our Christian brothers here.
Being able to perform esoteric interpretation is of paramount im-
portance in terms of the errors in which some of our Christian broth-
ers find themselves. The superstitious belief that Jesus (pbuh) is the
son of God, which has persisted for hundreds of years (surely God is
beyond that) is a very significant and major error that stems from a
lack of esoteric interpretation. The term "the son of God," which ap-
pears in the Gospel and, as discussed above, in the Torah, has been
considered in the literal sense alone and interpreted without proper
consideration of its deeper meanings.
As we have already seen, however, the term "son" here refers to
spiritual proximity to God, love, friendship and being chosen. It is a
rather profound reference to being a beloved and chosen servant of
God.
Christians must understand that the term "the son of God" has no
physical meaning, but rather emphasizes a servant's closeness to God.
When they look at the matter using esoteric interpretation they will

better understand that a very different and profound message is being
imparted through this form of address.
