“I’m not sure why you have come to the conclusion that there is only one will in the Godhead-where is your scriptural basis for this”

Unfortunately I am quite busy today, but I’ll try to get back and comment more. In the meantime, this statement is important.

The Athenasian Creed, which you can find online, was composed to correct a movement that was promoting the error that God the Father was more important, more powerful, having more authority, etc. than God the Son, or God the Holy Spirit. If it were true, then we would have 3 Gods and not One God as Scripture says. Our God is ONE, a perfect unified ONE. None is before or after, none is lessor or more than the other. That is the truth in Scripture. God the Son (Yahweh) calls the Father God. God the Father calls the Son God at whose feet even the angels bow. God the Holy Spirit speak only the word of the Lord, and every word from God is enveloped in the Holy Spirit to be sent where He wills. Christ said we can blaspheme Him (He is both human and God) but if we blaspheme the HS, it is an unforgiveable sin! There is so much throughout Scripture where we see the perfect 3 in ONE unity of the Trinity.

Subordination only entered the picture when YahWeh took on human form to walk among us and became Christ. There was never a need for subordination or obedience (Christ learned obedience – Phil. 2 I think) because they were ONE, having ONE will, ONE authority. They were never in disagreement.
