Of these many gods that the Bible acknowledges, none of them are real. None can speak, walk or see. But most Oneness people believe in a God of light and a God of darkness... again, I repeat, this is not Monotheism.
Are demons real?

Satan is a real being. Jesus said he saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Jesus spoke to satan like a being in the wilderness.

"Many Christians do not try to understand what was written in a verse in the Bible. Instead they approach the passage to prove what they already believe."
I've only found one book out there after I seen it. Got some study notes from another guy. The best place to start looking at it though is in Revelation.
I've read the Bible.
I was just wondering if you could provide sources for this idea. I'd like to read more about where this idea has come from, what it's based on.
Do you do any word studies in the original languages, or do you only study in English?

This is the same thing that Cain was cursed by God to do...

The heresy hunters are still with us. Only now, instead of stakes, they use their books and radio programs to destroy those they consider heretics.... I'm concerned that heresy hunting may be turning into leukemia because some cultwatchers seem more intent on destroying parts of the body than healing the body....

so you dont believe in the devil? interesting do you not believe in the words of Jesus when he rebuked them for trying to kill him and said your the children of your father the devil, who was a lair and a murderer from the beginning.
or is he just a little figment of his imagination to make christians behave
"from whence do you come from" doesn't have to mean originally. I f someone asked me that I could say "New Jersey", "My mama's womb", "I was at the store" .

I can use concordances too.
I'm looking for books written by authors who either believe this, or have written informational books about it. Blogs, websites, stuff like that. I know what the Bible says and how to find out more if I'm interested. I want to know what people say.

Oneness balks at calling Yeshua the Father. This is a definite trend. I wont go along with it.
Read this carefully:
6: For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6
Note the bold words. Does not this verse say PLAINLY the Messiah is BOTH.
FATHER AND SON.
That is the doctrine of Christ. If one denies Yeshua is the Father they are denying he is the Biblical Messiah.
9: Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 2 John 9
The Father (SPIRIT) was IN the son (flesh). GOD was IN Christ, in order to reconcile the world unto Himself.
He came near, in the body of the son. A body was prepared for that purpose. Jesus knew why he was born and came
into the world. GOD sent His only begotten Son into the world, that the world THROUGH HIM might (could) be saved.

I found a book about a month ago on it. This guy is not a preterist... found it on Amazon. I downloaded book two on my kindle then contacted the guy and he emailed me book on. I'm reading his first book now. His first book may be availble in paperback, I'm not sure.

The heresy hunters are still with us. Only now, instead of stakes, they use their books and radio programs to destroy those they consider heretics.... I'm concerned that heresy hunting may be turning into leukemia because some cultwatchers seem more intent on destroying parts of the body than healing the body....
