7) There is no power but that of Yahweh
There are many instances where it is shown that Jesus is not the equal of his Father. He said,
“Not my will but thine be done.” (Matthew 26: 39)
“My doctrine is not mine but his that sent me.” (John 7: 16)
“I can of mine own self do nothing.” (John 5: 30)
“My Father is greater than I.” (John 14: 28)
The power that Jesus had to do miracles came from his Father. He could be insulted, but, not the power (Matt. 12:32).
