💁🏻 Concept: Subordinationism

Subordinationism is the false teaching that the Son is inferior to the Father in essence, being, or divinity. This error denies the full deity of Christ, reducing Him to a lesser divine being rather than the eternal and coequal Son of God. Scripture, however, clearly teaches the eternal equality of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. While Christ in His incarnation willingly submitted to the Father’s will in role and function, this does not mean He is lesser in being. The Son is homoousios—of the same essence with the Father—equally God, eternal, and worthy of worship.
