Contradiction with John 1:14
States that the Word was made flesh, emphasizing Jesus's divine nature from the beginning, which may appear to contrast with being declared the Son of God at resurrection as per Romans 1:4.
John 1:14: And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Contradiction with Philippians 2:7
Mentions Jesus taking the form of a servant and being made in human likeness, potentially conflicting with the notion of his divine status being declared post-resurrection in Romans 1:4.
Philippians 2:7: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
Contradiction with Colossians 2:9
Asserts that in Jesus dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily, implying his ongoing divine nature rather than a declaration of it at a specific point like Romans 1:4 suggests.
Colossians 2:9: For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
Contradiction with Hebrews 1:8
Directly refers to the Son as God, suggesting a continuous divine status rather than a decree upon resurrection, which Romans 1:4 might imply.
Hebrews 1:8: But unto the Son [he saith], Thy throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness [is] the sceptre of thy kingdom. [righteousness: Gr. rightness, or, straightness]
Paradox #1
Theologians sometimes discuss a potential conflict regarding how Jesus is declared the Son of God. The verse might seem to imply that Jesus became the Son of God through the resurrection, which could appear inconsistent with the belief that He was eternally the Son of God. This raises questions about whether His divine sonship was a result of the resurrection or if it was affirmed by it.
