Continuing my rant…

If Jesus is Subordinate to the Father, for any amount of time, then he is essentially less than the Father. If Jesus has submitted to the will of the Father, then there is no comment as to who is “above” or “below” in either essence or role.

What happened in the Garden of Gethsemane was submission to the Father. If it was subordination then there would not even have been a conversation. If Jesus was subordinate to the Father, then what happened in the Garden was way out of line. How dare Jesus even bring up his will – he is subordinate – he is an underling there to do the will of his superior! But of course he was not subordinate, but he was the fullness of God in human form who chose to submit to his heavenly Father.
