The Strongest Bond of Union Existed Between the Father and the Son

Between God and His only begotten Son the strongest bond of union existed—a complete oneness. Thus, through Christ, Satan’s misrepresentation of God could be unfolded and shown in its real character.  — {13LtMs, Ms 57, 1898, par. 14}

The Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of the Father, is truly God in infinity, but not in personality. — {20LtMs, Ms 116, 1905}

From eternity there was a complete unity between the Father and the Son. They were two, yet little short of being identical; two in individuality, yet one in spirit, and heart, and character — {YI December 16, 1897, par. 5; 1897}

The Father wrought by His Son in the creation of all heavenly beings. “By Him were all things created, ... whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him.” Colossians 1:16. Angels are God's ministers, radiant with the light ever flowing from His presence and speeding on rapid wing to execute His will. But the Son, the anointed of God, the “express image of His person,” “the brightness of His glory,” “upholding all things by the word of His power,” holds supremacy over them all. Hebrews 1:3. “A glorious high throne from the beginning,” was the place of His sanctuary (Jeremiah 17:12); “a scepter of righteousness,” the scepter of His kingdom. Hebrews 1:8. “Honor and majesty are before Him: strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.” Psalm 96:6. Mercy and truth go before His face. Psalm 89:14. — {PP 34.2}

Christ made an infinite sacrifice in order that we might enjoy the great privilege of being called the sons of God. Before the world was created, the Father and His Son conferred together as to how man, if he should sin, might be reinstated as a member of the heavenly family. Christ then offered Himself as a ransom for the human race. The privilege secured for us at such an infinite cost, the privilege of becoming children of God, is the greatest privilege that could be conferred upon us. — {21LtMs, Ms 147, 1906, par. 5}
