I don't find these two statements to be mutually exclusive. One emphasizes the eternal nature of the Son and one the eternal nature of God. As they are one, the reference seems identical.
Is there a finer theological point you wish to emphasize?
No, for most can see the distinction. For you, however, it appears your reading of that indicates one of the following:
1. You continue to support my theory that in most things you perform eisegetical interpretations to support your own conclusions. In this case it is clear that Servetus was a non-Trintiarian heretic who even in his final words refused to grant Christ diety on the same level as the Father.
2. You are a non-Trinitarian heretic.
3. You are playing a little game in which you know better.
