451: Death is a departure to the spirit world, not extinction
Death is pictured as a departure into the spirit world "It came about as her soul was departing (for she died), that she named him Ben-oni; but his father called him Benjamin."

452: Biblical Subordination of God the Son, to God the Father
However, sometime around the incarnation, Jesus made a choice to submit to the Father as His head. We call this choice, the subordination (or down-ranking) of Christ to the Father. Jesus did not give up being God, He merely began to obey the Father as though He were a creature. This is called "Biblical subordination". Bible evidence seems to support the view that the Holy Spirit submits to both the Father and the Son, but it is not a strong case.
