As the Scriptures reflect, Jesus is always in an inferior position to his father.

He would be in his humanity or as the traditional Jewish messiah. If that were all he was, that would be easy. But if Christ is God, and God is one, then the Word is co-equal to and co-eternal with the Father and the Spirit. Or else we have polytheism. So, by hellenizing Jesus, and making him into a Platonic deity, John created a Chrisotlogical problem for the Church, which took the Church three hundred years to figure out, and which is the source of confusion among some Christian offshoots even to this day.

It's not John who creates the “problem”, if it be such, for the church but those that attempt to force that square peg of “ if Christ is God, and God is one, then the Word is co-equal to and co-eternal with the Father and the Spirit” into the round opening of John's writing.
