AUTHORITY
Revelation 2.27
27. "...I also have received authority from My Father..." Here is another verse as proof and as confirmation that Jesus Christ has also Authority over Him and He is not Supreme GOD, but the Second to One Who is above Him, that is His GOD Father. Jesus Christ received authority from His Father literally in everything.
In Jesus' speeches, in teachings, in performing miracles, in everything Jesus has authority and the power of His Father to do and to perform all these things. Even resurrection of Jesus from the dead is not done by Jesus Himself but was done by the will and the power of His GOD Father. Jesus even lives for the sake of GOD His Father (Romans 6.10).
~ GOD Father Resurrected Jesus Christ: (Acts 2.24.32, 3.15.26, 4.10, 5.30, 10.40, 13.30.33-34.37, 17.31, 26.8.23) (John 5.21, 10.17-18) (Romans 4.17.23-24, 6.4, 8.11, 10.9) (1Corinthians 6.14) (2Corinthians 4.14) (Galatians 1.1) (Ephesians 1.20, 2.6) (Colossians 2.12) (1Thessalonians 1.10) (Hebrews 13.20) (1Peter 1.3.21).
If GOD Father placed Jesus His Son at His right hand next to his throne, this gesture also reveal who is the Second in Command.
~ Sit at My right hand: (Psalm 110.1) (Matthew 22.44, 26.64) (Mark 12.36, 14.62) (Luke 20.42-43, 22.69) (Acts 2.33-35, 5.31, 7.55-56) (To Romans 8.34) (1Corinthians 15.24-28) (To Ephesians 1.20-21) (To Colossians 3.1-2) (To Hebrews 1.3-4.13, 12.2) (1Peter 3.22)
By the single statement GOD Jesus Christ let all of us know Who is above Him and Who is His Higher GOD.
John 14.28
28. "You heard that I said to you, 'I go away and I will come to you.' If you love Me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father, the Father is greater than I."
So, without any doubt the GOD Father is Higher GOD than GOD Jesus His Son, and it should be understood by all. If Jesus received authority from His Father and everything else with it, this means that Jesus has higher Authority above Him and He is subordinate to this higher Authority.
Above all, Jesus is GOD because His Father is GOD, and Jesus is the Image of His Father GOD, Jesus is not the GOD on His own and did not make Himself as GOD, but He received authority to be a GOD from His Father GOD. This verse 27 reveal by Who's Authority Jesus represents His GOD Father as GOD, and in everything He does.
~ My GOD Your GOD: (Psalm 45.7) (Micah 5.4) (John 14.28, 20.17) (1Corinthians 11.3) (2Corinthians 11.31) (Ephesians 1.3) (Hebrews 1.9) (Revelation 1.6, 5.10, 20.6, 3.2.12).
Concerning us, human beings, in a certain sense we are also gods, but the fourth kind gods. The First kind GOD is the GOD Father. The Second kind GOD is Jesus Christ the Image of His GOD Father. The third kind of gods are the Angels who are created by GOD. And the fourth kind and last kind of gods are the humans who created in the Intellectual Image of GOD (Genesis 1.26-28).
~ See also: "You are gods." (Psalms 58.1, 82.1.6-7, 84.7, 136.2, 138.1. NRSV) (Job 41.9.25. NRSV) (Deuteronomy 32.43. NRSV) (John 10.34-35).
REWARDS
Revelation 2.7.10-11.17.26-28
Rewards very often mentioned in the Bible and they divided on negative and positive rewards. But the most astonishing and amazing reward are written in Revelation. Just like every Statement of GOD has its Conditions, and so all rewards of GOD also have their Conditions.
