and so it BEGS TO BE ASKED ...

1. Are there distinctions to be made when we discuss and explain the Godhead?

2. Are some Oneness folks spooked by the usage of Father, Son and Holy Ghost terminology ... especially when used in the same sentence?

3. Must we be able to fully explain God?

4. Does our salvation hinge on our views of the Godhead?

5. Did God die on the cross? - That's WH's question.

Listen, Bro. Daniel...I read TB's post this morning and it never entered my mind that he was 'less than Oneness' by posting it as he did.

Sabellius on "Does our salvation hinge our our view of the Godhead?"

In some sense it must Daniel. If not enter Pandora's Box. For example, would the view of tritheism or hinduism be acceptable in the sight of God on Judgement Day? I think we must end somewhere and not leave the ends frayed to later come unraveld further. I believe it is biblical as well:

"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse," Romans 1:20 NKJV

"Are you a trinitarian?"

No sir... I was raised oneness and still consider myself oneness.

But I have begun to weigh wether there is a more of a distinction to be made between the son and the father.

The scriptures I posted in another thread along these lines are enough, in my opinion, to make one stand back and take another look.

Where do I stand? Where I was raised basically... but I am in a process of studying this issue out for myself. It really appears to me that the apostles seem to have drawn a strong distinction between the father and the son.

In all things... I desire that the word of God ring true and every man... beginning with myself... a liar.

I believe what the word says. It is just a process of fearful study and prayer to actually find out what that might be.

I didn't think so either, Barb ... but as J-Roc and I predicted on the phone we knew the TRUTH POLICE WOULD GO BALLISTIC.

3. Must we be able to fully explain God? NO.

4. Does our salvation hinge on our views of the Godhead? YES. IT IS INEVITABLE.

5. Did God die on the cross? - That's WH's question. NO. NOT EVEN A LITTLE SORE.

No assumptions THEO ... just pointing out the playbook ... on how the TRUTH POLICE first categorize in order to marginalize ... rather than address the issue.

Well, I am Oneness to the very core of my being and believe in truth and obeying Scripture and all that goes with it and it didn't seem 'off' to me.

I haven't read the posts that followed TB's this morning...I'll check it out when I have time.
