Son: John2:18 “What sign do You show us as your authority for doing these things?” 19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20 The Jews then said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21 But He was speaking of the temple of His body. 22 So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken."
John10:17 "For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I may take it again. 18 No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own initiative [see Philippians 2:5ff]. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again.
Father: Galatians 1 "Paul, an apostle (not sent from men nor through the agency of man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead),"
Spirit: Romans 8:11 "But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you"
God: Acts 5:30 "The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you had put to death by hanging Him on a cross."
