Given Life.

To 'beget' is the old English word meaning 'to be the father of'. In the KJV 'begat' is found in the genealogy of Christ in the first chapter of Matthew's Gospel and elsewhere. In modern versions this has been changed to read 'was the father of'. The only begotten Son of God refers to the Lord Jesus Christ. "He [God] gave His only begotten Son…." (John 3:16, KJV). The NIV reads "He gave His one and only Son".

This special begettal and birth of Jesus Christ is explained by Luke: "The angel answered [Mary], 'The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.'" (Luke 1:35).
In the Book of Revelation, Jesus Christ is also referred to as: "the first begotten [first born] of the dead." (Revelation 1:5, KJV), meaning that Jesus Christ was the first man to be raised from the dead to inherit eternal life. John tells us that as Jesus was the Son of God, so we also can become the 'children of God'.

"Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God-children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God." (John 1:12-13).

And the apostle Paul writes: "For those God foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of His Son, that he [Christ] might be the firstborn among many brothers." (Romans 8:29).
