Boatbums, you state on your home page your husband is a retired firefighter and your hero.

What if there was a wealthy man who decided the town you lived in needed a fire department. He purchased all the equipment and hired and trained his son to be a fireman.

Your house is engulfed in flames and you are trapped inside. The son comes and uses the equipment and training the father provided to rescue you from sure death.

Who would be your savior?

The son for risking his life.

The father for providing the training and equipment.

A combination of the two?

I contend both can say they are your savior as can a Father and Son in the scriptures you provided and be two distinct entities.

The supreme error in your less-than-creative story is both the firefighter and his father were human. To amuse you, though, I'll give you an answer. The one who put his life on the line to save mine is the savior. If the mayor of your pretend town was handing out an award for heroism in the incident, to whom do you think he should hand it to?
