From the perspective of Jehovah's Witnesses, Jesus is the cornerstone of God's purpose, but always in a subordinate role to Jehovah God. They emphasize monotheism strictly, believing that the Father alone is the Almighty God. Jesus is seen as God's foremost agent, the one through whom all other things were created, and the King of God's heavenly Kingdom. He is the pre-eminent Son, but still a distinct being created by God, rather than co-eternal or co-equal. This view stems from their unique interpretation of scriptures, particularly verses that describe Jesus's submission to the Father or references to him as 'the firstborn of all creation.'
