Biblical Subordination of God the Son, to God the Father Subordination Within The Godhead Subordination of Christ proven from the Bible Biblical subordination Jesus Christ is the creator, not a creature and will always be equal to the Father in this sense. Jn 1:1 says, "and the word was [uncreated] God". However, sometime around the incarnation, Jesus made a choice to submit to the Father as His head. We call this choice, the subordination (or down-ranking) of Christ to the Father. Jesus did not give up being God, He merely began to obey the Father as though He were a creature. This is called "Biblical subordination". Bible evidence seems to support the view that the Holy Spirit submits to both the Father and the Son, but it is not a strong case.

Official creed of the Wesleyan Church Arminius (1560-1609), a Dutch theologian, stressed that God has predestined all who believe in Jesus Christ for eternal life and those who reject Him for eternal separation from God; that He has given us as human beings true freedom to accept or reject this salvation; that He offers grace to enable all persons to repent and believe; and that believers are secure spiritually in Christ based on continued faith and obedience to God. Wesley was a priest in the Church of England in the 1700's and the founder of the Methodist movement.

What role does the Holy Spirit in my Conversion? However, the question of how the Spirit affects conversion, whether directly or through an agency, has been, and is still, a controversial matter. A "direct operation" of the Spirit is declared by many. This idea has descended to our age from the old doctrine that man is totally depraved in heart and soul and must have a miraculous spiritual operation to turn him from sin to his Heavenly Father. But the scriptures plainly teach that the Holy Spirit works through the agency of the revealed Word of God! Still, while proclaiming that the manner of the Spirit's working in the Christian age is through the power of the Word, we must not be guilty of thinking the Spirit is not involved in our conversion. Conversion is the process by which man turns from sin to God. It is the "change" from the old life in sin to the new life in Christ.
