"I find Jesus to be subordinate to His Father throughout Scripture."
That is a position that puts you outside of the beliefs of Christianity and reduces Christ to something other than God. This is such a fundamental dogmatic difference that little I doubt that any common ground can be established for further discussions.

I think there is confusion in Jesus being obedient to the Father as the Savior and being subordinate Reggie.. you might want to rethink this .

I have thought long and hard about it for many years. I believe in Jesus as my Lord and my Savior because God created him for this purpose.

Colossians 1:
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation;
16 for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or authorities--all things were created through him and for him.
17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
18* He is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the first-born from the dead, that in everything he might be pre-eminent.

Further; I believe Jesus when He says "John 6:46 Not that any one has seen the Father except him who is from God; he has seen the Father.

and..........

John 14:9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; how can you say, `Show us the Father'?
