Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In Luke 4:41 (and Mark 3:11), when Jesus casts out demons, they fall down before him, and declare: “You are the Son of God.” In John 1:34, John the Baptist bears witness that Jesus is the Son of God and in John 11:27 Martha calls him the Messiah and the Son of God.

Detailed explanation-2: -Christianity teaches that Jesus is the Messiah (Christ) foretold in the Old Testament and the Son of God. Christians believe that through his death and resurrection, humans can be reconciled to God and thereby are offered salvation and the promise of eternal life.

Detailed explanation-3: -Biblical scholars use this title as a way of affirming Jesus’ humanity, that he is fully human as well as fully God.

Detailed explanation-4: -And so Christians then started saying he must have been made the son of God at his baptism. That’s a view that you appear to get in the Gospel of Mark, which begins with Jesus being baptized and God declaring him his son at the baptism.
