The answer
The apostle Paul often defended the divinity of the Lord Christ and His equality with the Father in one essence and in unity. Yet, some may be surprised when he says, “Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all” (1 Cor. 15:28). They question how it is that the Son can be subject to God the Father. But subjection here is not to be understood in the human sense that has corrupted the true meaning of obedience and subjection. No, this is the attribute of humility that is characteristic of the second Adam, our Lord Jesus, who said: “learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls” (Matt. 11:29). The soul’s comfort and greatness are to share with her Messiah His attributes of meekness and humility, so that in obedience she finds exalted heavenly comfort and true glory.
