This passage you quoted proves
@bdizzle point if you really examine it. How can you not be equal to God & yet be God? If the Son isn't equal to God then they aren't some triune entity. They're separate beings with the Father being greater or the Almighty. Like a true human father/son relationship. Also Colossians 1:14/15
"14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15 Who is the image of the invisible God,
the firstborn of every creature:"
The Son can't be equal to God if he was created by God himself bro. I've researched this topic many times years ago & was able to come to this conclusion for myself.
