FRiend, I've granted that is a valid interpretation, and have requested forbearance and respect for those Christians who interpret it differently.
Distinguishing Father and Son in pre-Incarnation revelation is not easy, and is further complicated by the fact that “Only the Son knows the Father, and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.” It’s probably not worth the wrangle, because you’d have to tease the Trinity apart to do it and that’s knowledge at a God level, not at man’s level. The answer could be in the form of “both/and” if we could even understand it at the depth required.
And anyhow “Jesus” is incarnated Christ adding another layer of complexity. The account in Acts speaks of a vision of Jesus (not just “the Son”) standing at the right hand of God the Father. In heaven. We have something that blows our analytical categories to bits here. What role do bodies play in heaven? Is Jesus going to have a body we recognize in heaven? What is the event at the end of Revelation where apparently the mortal coil just dissolves away and yields to the New Jerusalem, is this literal? Symbolic? Both? So many questions, no easy answers. But we can say with confidence that heaven is not a vague place. If anything it is more solid than earth (cannot be shaken). Our perceptions are vague; we see through a glass darkly. But that doesn’t mean heaven is. There are going to be bodies in it. And if the Son wears a body, then He does. Will the Father be directly encountered... who knows. If He is, will God look like a duo... or will the Father be seen in a merged Son/Father incarnation... I don’t know. I hope I do not get carted off for blasphemy or heresy. Just asking some questions that probably sound pretty silly in actual heaven.

***Heretic, if it’s a valid interpretation then leave it at that. What you’re pushing is an INVALID interpretation, so invalid that it is pure heresy. Stop pushing heresy onto FR.

***Well, such a thing is too much to ask from God Himself, clad in human flesh. Jesus called false teachers like you sons of satan but you would ask FReepers for their forbearance and respect. You ask more of FReepers than God expected of Himself. You are properly labelled a God damned heretic.
