Indeed, as a man Jesus has subjected Himself to the Father.

1 Corinthians 11:3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

From a Trinitarian standpoint, I was just wondering how you explain this Biblical analogy then?

Fully God AND fully man.

God being the head of Christ, as Christ is the head if man and the man is the head of woman. Meaning: God the Father has authority over Christ and through the head of Christ, God the Father has authority over the head of man and through the head of man, God has authority over the head of woman, as God then is complete in woman, that God might be all in all, All in Christ, all in man, all in woman.

Sorry, too many "heads" there. But I'm guessing you are confusing function with essence.

Just was making a point, that God the Father has authority over Jesus and males and females and that all are subject to the authority of the Father, even Jesus Himself.

Matthew 20:23 So He said to them, “You will indeed drink My cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepared by My Father.”

Psalm 110:1 The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.”


Matthew 26:64 Jesus said to him, “It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

Acts 7:55-56 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, and said, “Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”

Is it still only "Jesus the man" that we see depicted here?

But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no,
not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.



But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no,
not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son,

but the Father.

Right, no man could know. And Jesus was functioning as a man.

I see God the Father in the passages and in addition to God the Father, I see Jesus in the passages, as Jesus is clearly not God the Father, just as God the Father is Jesus Himself, clearly there are two persons but where is the third person in the passages ? Looks like one must be missing.

So then please explain why Jesus is seen standing “next” to God, if He is actually supposed to be God Himself? I'd love it if you could please clarify how and why this is shown to be the case from post 128. Thanks.

God the Father, yes ! Jesus, yes ! The Holy Spirit if God the Father, yes ! No third person. Why ? Gods Spirit is Holy, His Spirit is the Holy Spirit, As the Father and His Spirit are one, so two persons not three persons, I just don't know where there is a third person?
