What is the alternative, leave a oneness standards church and go to a trinity church without standards? Reading these many threads only leave me with questions.

Re: left upci yr ago and still messed up

I've done fine at a trinity (actually two trinity churches, one from 1992 to 2006 and another from 2006 to present). Since I believe that salvation happens prior to and separate from water baptism and Spirit baptism, the folks in these trinity churches are saved and are my brothers and sisters. Many of the folks I fellowship with have been baptized in the Spirit. What about water baptism? Well, OP folks don't agree on the "formula" and some of them condemn and ........ one another for adding the word "Lord" to the baptismal formula or for leaving off the word "Lord" as part of the formula.

Some OP's teach that
the name of the Father is Lord
the name of the Son is Jesus
the name of the Holy Ghost is Christ,
therefore these three words "Lord Jesus Christ" is the full name of God
and these thee names are one just like God is three in one.
Doesn't that sound a little like trinity to you?

But, in my case it would be trading one false teaching (standards) for another (trinity)... why bother? Not an equal trade-off IMHO. I think standards are insignificant when compared to the wonderful revelation of the oneness of God.

Amen, sister. I would like to suggest
(since your hubby has apparently nixed
my previous idea?) something that you
may not hear from anyone else, here;
but is intuitive, and you can Google:
"Right Pastor." (if I haven't already-
-sorry if I have)

Praying God's will for you, which I'm
persuaded you are already doing, Amen.

So...are you in a "lesser of two false teachings" type of situation?

How can one choose a false teaching over another one?

she will always believe in the Oneness of God, I have cousins who also left standards to a trinity church but they have never denied who God really is.

Always. Once you have that revelation, it stays with you.
