Why is Adam not the son of God?
christians.....what makes Jesus so special for him to be the son of God? With that reasoning, shouldn't Adam be the son of God then, he didn't have a father or a mother.....wouldn't it make sense if neither of them were sons of God and just God's chosen people to do his work?

Adam is called the son of God in many places.
Adam is not God's Son as it relates to Christ, study Matthew 17.
Jesus is God's Son, of the same substance as the Father, One of the three Persons of the Trinity.
Adam was and is, like us, a created being. Jesus is eternal, I John 1.1, John 1:1, 1:14.

Jesus was the beginning of God's creation, and the FIRST to be BORN AGAIN, as a spirit. Thus of ALL of God's creatures, Jesus IS the MOST special.
Colossians 1:15; Re:3:14; Romans 1:3-4.
Romans 1:3-4 (American Standard Version)
3 concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh,
4 who was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead; even Jesus Christ our Lord,
YHWH/ JEHOVAH God is a Spirit Being, and is Holy to the superlative. God caused the Word to be and through the Word, created all that was created.
JEHOVAH God, then, may refer to perfect Adam [prior to disobedience and discharge from God's direct protective care], as an earthly son, and faithful angels as spirit sons.
Luke 3:38 (American Standard Version)
38 the son of Enos, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.
Job 1:6 (American Standard Version)
6 Now it came to pass on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, that Satan also came among them.
1 Corinthians 15:45 (American Standard Version)
45 So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

Jesus was actually born of a human and God, which makes him the son of God. Adam was created by God, but not born of God.

In the strictest sense, Adam IS a son of God.
But Adam was created by God, and Jesus was begotten (human-born) through Mary.
Jesus remains God's only begotten Son.

Jesus was the firstborn of all creation (Colossians 1:15). He was the only spirit/creature to ever been created by Jehovah alone. Through Jesus, Jehovah used him to create all the other creations (John 1:2)
Adam was the first person/human to be perfect. Jesus was the second Adam; he was the last person to be perfect as a human and never sinned. The first Adam sinned.
Adam was the first human father of all living things. Jehovah was and is the Heavenly Father of all creations.

Jesus is both God and the Son of God., part of the Trinity along with the Holy Spirit. God is divine and all powerful so He can make this so. We are all "Sons of God" in the sense that He loves us as His Children. Hope that helps. My sources can explain more. Thanks for the question and have a Blessed Day

Adam was created by God. Jesus has always existed and is himself God. Jesus was there at Adam's creation. The Creator is always superior to the created.

we are all SONS and DAUGHTERS...CHILDREN of God...Jesus was special only at the time because he gave back the rightful throne to this world back to us, MANKIND. it was through adam and eve that the world was given to the devil, but because of the works of Jesus, satan is losing his battle. Jesus was the first to have full power of God...but remember, we are capable of greater works.
