I have a question concerning the inerrancy of the bible and I do wonder if this is going to make for some real twisting of words as it seems pretty airtight.
​
Jhn 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
​
But obviously this is not His only begotten son as demonstrated here.
​
Gen 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare [children] to them, the same [became] mighty men which [were] of old, men of renown.
​
So which of these two is the incorrect statement?

2Sa 13:1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name [was] Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her. Son as used in this passage is the same as it in this one.
​
Gen 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare [children] to them, the same [became] mighty men which [were] of old, men of renown.
​
The word used for son is ben{bane} and this is also throughout for any son. Same word same context same meaning.
.

It establishes only that God has not been content to have but one son and has indeed been somewhat prolific in the Old Testament.
