When does anybody see the face of the Father? Seriously. I would say that every "apparition", like that to Moses, is "through the Son" and "in the Spirit".

Seriously, don't tell me what I know. I never heard of anyone seeing the Father. Not saying it didn't happen, but if it did, there goes the classical Doctrine of the Trinity.

btw, I don't play word games, or at least when I do it's for fun, not for business.

I thought I noted that you had a fine mind . . . grand enough to conceive of two things being true . . . . that some might not be able to see as true.

I think I stopped well short of telling you what you knew.

I don't know about the word games . . . things get very complex, convoluted and tricky hereon on a number of fronts.

Check out ANGELS ON ASSIGNMENT by Roland Buck. I'd a free ebook available on the net. He spent a significant time with THE FATHER.

Doesn't change a thing about the classical doctrine of The Trinity. I find that an odd statement and no basis for it.

I know of no Biblical basis requiring this: "I would say that every "apparition", like that to Moses, is "through the Son" and "in the Spirit"."

Given that THE SON SUBMITTED HIMSELF WHOLLY TO THE FATHER . . . AT THE CROSS . . . God The Father could have well done whatever HE wanted with Moses. Fathers are normally over Sons in some sense. Christ's submission to Him indicated something of that order of things, too.

Yes, The Father in honor of Christ's obedience to The Cross placed all things under Him. That's a different issue, imho.
