Biblical Subordination expressed by early Fathers and apologists ... Jehovah's Witnesses are correct when they emphasize the subordination of Christ to the Father (in rank or power), but outright misrepresent history, when they say the early church viewed Jesus as a creature. It is not surprising that the Nicene Creed overemphasizes the equality of Christ with the Father, since Arius' doctrine of a created Christ was its primary target. The purpose of the Nicene Creed was to emphasize Jesus was equal to the Father as a class of being, and here it was absolutely correct. But the Nicene Creed overemphasized the rank and power equality of Christ with the father, and here it was in error. 200 AD Tertullian "We have been taught that He proceeds forth from God, and in that procession He is generated; so that He is the Son of God, and is called God from unity of substance with God.

Boer, Harry R.: A Short History of the Early Church ... Greek philosophy made a sharp distinction between the spiritual and the material. Becoming a Christian did not always alter this Greek way of thinking. For the Greeks the creation of the world and the incarnation of the Son of God were major religious and intellectual problems. How can God (pure spirit) create the world (matter) and become man (matter and spirit)? c. The Old Testament is strongly monotheistic. If Christ is very God, what is his relationship to God the Creator.- the God of Israel? For these reasons it was probably unavoidable that questions about the person of Jesus should arise to which the New Testament gives no direct answer. These questions were of two kinds: the first group concerned the relationship of Jesus Christ to God the Father; the second group of questions dealt with the problem of the relationship between the human nature and the divine nature of Christ. In this chapter we are concerned with the first group of questions. VARIOUS ANSWERS: The matter is put ... ... https://www.bible.ca/trinity/trinity-Boer.htm
