A Lot in Common But Very Different
That's how I would sum up the doctrinal differences between OP's and TP's.
The Godhead difference really is a difference, and not just a mincing of words to cause division.
Often, I sum up the differences to be a reflection of the carnality of even our most holy elders and Bishops-- believing that God looks at His children of the various flocks and folds and shakes His Head at our lack of unity.
Still, there are moments like right now, when I think about the differences, and I see the vast chasm, and I wonder how is it even possible for one of these groups of sincere believers in the Gospel of Jesus Christ be saved and be so, so wrong?
If OP's are wrong, we are very, very wrong.
If TP's are wrong, we are very, very wrong.
Amazing Grace doesn't even really begin to describe what would be needed for there to be Believers from both schools of thought to be saved!
