Did Gordon Magee deny Oneness?

[Michael The Disciple]

This fellow on You tube is saying he did. I doubt it. He wrote the Book Is Jesus In The Godhead Or Is The Godhead In Jesus.

I think Gass's letter in the video most likely was referring to MaGee wishing that he never written a book that caused so much controversy.

When I was at ABI for the 1956/1957 year, Bro. Magee stopped by there and preached (at least once) at Bro. Norris' church. One of his sermons (the only one I remember) was on Blood, Water, and Spirit. I remember he once mentioned something about a "pre-incarnate form of Christ" and someone (a licensed UPC minister from Illinois) told me that they didn't like that term. I've read his book. I think I have a copy here somewhere but I'm not sure.

While I was at St. Paul, someone told me a story about Bro. Buie (don't know which one) who spoke to Bro. Magee about oneness. At that time Bro. Magee was a trinitarian. He told Bro. Buie, "You know, you really ought to write a book about that. You could call it 'Hooey by Buie.'" Then later Bro. Magee accepted the message and began to propagate it. At one time I used to receive a magazine from the group Bro. Magee was in. They were called The Churches of God of Ireland. What few magazines of his I used to have from back then in the late nineteen fifties are long gone.

I heard that Bro. Magee moved to the U.S. and married Bro. Kidson's daughter and ministered out of Houston, TX at one time. I don't know how accurate that was.

Well, I knew you would agree with that term.

A few years ago, a friend sent me a video of Bro. Magee preaching a message at
J.V. Foster's church in San Antonio, Tx. I believe the title was "The Glorious Gospel
of Jesus Christ". It didn't sound like Bro. Magee had denied the Oneness. He had been
very ill, and Bro. Foster had gone and picked he and his wife up from San Marcos, where
they lived. He was very weak and had to be helped to the pulpit. But when the anointing
came, he preached with such passion. Certainly didn't sound like he had denied the Truth
I heard he died about a month later. I believe he had several heart attacks over a period
of time. Later I contacted his wife in San Marcos and spoke with her. I remember hearing
Bro. W.E. Kidson as a child, in Sherman, Texas. I remember the name of a man associ-
ated with Bro. Kidson, named Eugene Garrett. I am 71 and some names come out of my
memory bank, from time to time.
