The Son of God.
Jesus started the understanding of it, not the mention of it. The Son, or Sons, of God had mention long before Christ came to earth. The importance not in the theology, but in the ideology. Being the Son of God has great significance and importance, more than recognized or understood. Look at the model of a monarchial kingdom system, and the analogy is just as the significance of being the son of the king. It is monumental, as the son of the king can say as he wants, do as he wants, and the repercussions will be minimal if any, and that is of the earthly type of kingdom. The heavenly kingdom has similarities in that the Son of the King does have dominion and authority to do and say what he shall, as in accordance with the will of the king. The Son of God has authority, has dominion, can say, and do. It is simply put this way, the Son of God is first – God’s son, second – the enemy’s master, and third – man’s servant. As in an earthly monarchial kingdom, the king and his administration has authority over all in the land, especially the enemy. So also in the heavenly kingdom the King and His people (Son’s of God), have authority, especially over the enemy. The administration (son’s of God) are to serve the king as son’s, and to serve the people as needed servants in the kingdom. Be as son's. If already christians, be as son's. It is biblical.
