Instead of taking each individual comment and responding let me ask this:

As we consider the profound mystery of heaven and what it means to stand in the fullness of God’s presence, I’d like to ask for your perspective on a question central to our understanding of worship. Scripture speaks of the glorified Christ as possessing “the fullness of the Godhead bodily” (Colossians 2:9), a powerful phrase that seems to point to the one visible, glorified image of God we will see in eternity. In light of this, when we finally stand before the throne of God, will we behold Jesus Christ as the singular, glorified embodiment of the fullness of God, or would you understand heaven to reveal three distinct persons standing apart from each other? And, if that’s the case, who among them would we worship, given that Scripture affirms one Lord, one faith, one Spirit? I believe this question touches on the core of our worship and anticipation of eternity and would love to hear your thoughts on this heavenly vision.

But, why? It seems to be an excuse to once again avoid addressing those passages and my points about them. We cannot divorce them from your next questions, as they form a part of the context.

First, it's worth stating that once again you are fallaciously begging the question by asking which one will we worship. It is to first assume that not all three are truly and fully God, which misrepresents the Trinity. Each is truly and fully God, so we will worship all three, as we do now, because each is truly and fully God. Second, we will see Christ as he currently is, but I don't know about the Father and the Holy Spirit, as they are spirit, although Rev. 22 seems to suggest we will see the Father's face.

Rev 21:22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb.
Rev 21:23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. (ESV)

Rev 22:1 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb
Rev 22:2 through the middle of the street of the city; also, on either side of the river, the tree of life with its twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
Rev 22:3 No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him.
Rev 22:4 They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.
Rev 22:5 And night will be no more. They will need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever. (ESV)

I didn't mean it as an outright dismissal, just that my following question was to encompass everything to one thought.
Rev 21:23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. (ESV)
What a perfect picture The lamp (God Personified) the entire Light (God as Spirit).

1 Kings 8:27, "But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?"

God is Spirit cannot be seen with the natural eye apart from the body of Christ. But His presence can be felt everywhere at the same time.
 

Does the relationship between the Father and the Son have an end, or is it eternal?​


God is immutable so the relationship between the Father and Son is eternal.
 
A central point of contention between Trinitarian and Oneness Pentecostals is the nature of the Sonship of Jesus Christ. Trinitarians assert that the Sonship is an eternal relationship within the Godhead, while Oneness Pentecostals often argue that it is a temporary state that will cease after the final judgment.

To explore this issue, let's consider the scriptural evidence. Does the Bible suggest that the Sonship is a permanent or temporary aspect of Jesus' relationship with God?

1 Corinthians 15:24 states, "Then comes the end, when he will deliver over the kingdom to God the Father, after he has destroyed every rule and every authority and power." This passage seems to imply that Jesus' role as Son will eventually come to an end.

However, in 1 Corinthians 15:28, we read, "And when all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who subjected all things to him, that God may be all in all." This verse suggests that even after all things are subjected to the Son, he will still be subject to the Father.

How do we reconcile these two passages? Does the Bible indicate that the Sonship is a temporary state that will eventually cease, or is it an eternal aspect of the Godhead?
Yes, Even after all things are subjected to the Son, He will still be subject to the Father but as "The " (definitely article) GodMan, since He still retains His eternal Sonship! (He didn't give up His perichorasis with the Godhead when He became Man(Human).
To further explain this, Christ( the eternal Son, the 2nd person of the Godhead) took up the human nature in His ONE Personhood!: two natueres in one Person yet distinct, no Almagamation!
So as The Man Christ Jesus, at the consomation of all things, will take all humanity and creation and summit them under the Father ( as the mediator btwin God and Man) so that the Father may be all in all!
