THE SON AS THE SERVANT OF THE FATHER
"For whom He (God the Father) did foreknow (the Royal Family of God), He (the Father) also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son (the Lord Jesus Christ), that He (the Son) might be the firstborn among many brethren (the church universal, i.e. the mystical body of Christ, all of the redeemed from the dispensation of the Grace of God the Father which is the dispensation of the Royal Family of God)." Romans 8:29 KJV (added for explanation)
Servant by the Will of the Father
"Behold My Servant, whom I uphold; Mine Elect, in whom My soul delighteth; I have put My spirit upon Him:" Isaiah 42:1a
There is only one true and living God (see Isa. 46:9). The one and only God, eternally lives as three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Spirit (see Matt. 28:19). The Triune Godhead eternally lives in perfect unity and harmony (see Deut. 6:4 with Isa. 45:5, 21). In the dispensation of Alpha (eternity past), the Father's eternal grace protocol plan of the ages was presented and agreed upon by the Son and the Spirit (see Isa. 46:10 with Ps. 33:11; Isa. 48:3).
The Father's plan was a protocol plan because God is holy (see Ps 99:5, 9) and therefore all that He plans and accomplishes must be right things done in right ways (see Ps. 119:137, 138, 160; 145:7). Therefore, the Father was righteous when He asked the Son to become His Servant! The Son shares with the Father and the Spirit all the attributes of the Godhead equally and in totality (see John 1:1-2; 14).
