As much as you would desire to draw conclusions for me ... my words still stand, Praxeas.

I would agree that the baptismal regenerationists are as old as the Roman Catholic church. oloroid

I missed this one.

My soteriological view is not preconceived but based on what I read in the Bible especially in the gospels and in the book of Acts.

I have no prejudice toward Trinitarians. My desire is for them come to the knowledge of the truth and be saved not to condemn them.

I don't seek to EXCLUDE anyone from the salvation that comes by faith in Christ. Any exclusion comes from those who oppose themselves and those who are blinded by the false doctrines of seducing spirits. IOW they exclude themselves by not obeying the commandments of the Lord.

God wants everyone to be saved even Trinitarians. So do I.

I think it is absolutely bizzare that some only consider Oneness Pentecostals as Christians.
Unfortunately, Stephen, this is the way you are taught to believe in most OP churches.

I hear you Sherri, but I would argue it is not current in most OP circles... I think it was mostly in the UPC and is a passing thing.

I do not believe the majority of 23,000,000 Bro French documented in his book adhere to such beliefs.

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945

I hope you're right. My only frame of reference is UPC where I was born and raised.

I would be very surprised to find any great number within the UPC that would accept a trinitarian as saved. Even here in loosey-goosey liberal land TN most of them still believe that it takes Acts 2:38 to be saved.

If this is true ... then the views I've expressed are not in the minority ... or undermining?

If you read this ... he said this is true for most in OP circles, Matt ... not within within the UPC.

Bro,
Your main OP church Orgs (UPC, ALJC, etc) do not accept triniatrians as saved. That is why I say the majority does not. Even the AWCF used to be anti Trinitarian. I am not sure what they are now.
