Do you believe this?
Far more than Modalism or Trinitarianism.

Re: A Alternative Godhead View.

until about a year ago I never knew there was a debate about the godhead. I have never studied it because I assumed all were in agreement.

I have asserted many times here that most trinitarians have NO idea that any Christian believes anything but the trinity.

As for me I believe in One indivisible God who is plural in attributes but singular in being and all of the fullness of divinity lives in Jesus Christ.
I generally lean toward this view, even though (surprise surprise) I've bounced back and forth between the binitarian and oneness view in my mind, even though I've always and consistantly taught the traditional oneness view out of obedience. Over the past couple of years I've been pretty strong on the oneness doctrine, but I still think there's alot of wiggle room when it comes to the Godhead.

Re: A Alternative Godhead View.

The answer to Binitarianism is there are not two Gods but rather one God who existed in two ways in the OT. In one way he existed as omnipresent spirit bigger than the Galaxies. From creation he existed in a visible form (similtaneously) in order to be seen by what he created. This was known as the Logos, also the Wisdom of God, also the Angel Of God. These were all the same thing. The same God existing in two ways visible and invisible.

From Bethlehem until now he never ceased being the omnipresent Spirit. He simply changed the visible form he used as his manifestation into a human being, the Son of God. So its both him. There is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.

I agree with this.

God robed Himself in Human Flesh in the personage of Jesus Christ.
