God the Father now bows to Jesus! What the?
When Jesus says, only through me, then He, as 1/3 of the Godhead, is taking the judgment that once took three to decide. That judgment will now be done by He alone.
In real life, as a father, you would not allow such in your reality.
It would irk you too much.
To think that God the Father would Plan such a silly usurping of His power is rather funny.
This is part of the problem, if you read literally.
I present this in a literal and true interpretation, but do not read the Bible literally myself.
Would you let your son, well, sort of take over?
Forced retirement, so to speak.
You will not judge My humans anymore is what Jesus might as well say to His Father.
I personally like the Father. He learns from His mistakes. Jesus does not.
Why have you forsaken me. Simple. I rule humans. I judge as always.
You are not I am. I am.
As to your vicarious redemption, Gods do not die or sacrifice themselves for what they create.

Jesus was prophesied to have God favor centuries before he came to earth (Psalms 2nd chapter)
God saw his faithfulness and had full confidence in him and gave him authority, and power to carry out
his will. Jesus did not usurp his father's authority he was given that authority. Once Jesus dose all his father
has assigned him to do, Jesus hands back the kingdom that he was entrusted with to his father

1 Corinthians 1:20-28 However, now Christ has been raised up from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep [in death]. 21 For since death is through a man, resurrection of the dead is also through a man. 22 For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each one in his own rank: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who belong to the Christ during his presence. 24 Next, the end, when he hands over the kingdom to his God and Father, when he has brought to nothing all government and all authority and power. 25 For he must rule as king until [God] has put all enemies under his feet. 26 As the last enemy, death is to be brought to nothing. 27 For [God] 'subjected all things under his feet." But when he says that "all things have been subjected," it is evident that it is with the exception of the one who subjected all things to him. 28 But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone.

I don't really see why God would bow to Jesus. I don't know all the little bits and pieces but I don't remember ever reading this.
Anyways it is my personal opinion that I do not "belong" to anyone. I have the freedom of choice and free will.
