Nope, that's not true.

No, I didn't say "every"! But the vast majority consider Oneness to be unorthodox and anathema.

Re: Oneness Pentecostal Apologetics Conference
Bro McGruder has performed, sung and PREACHED for the AOG for many years. I went to a local AOG to hear him preach just a couple years ago. Fabulous!
When was the last time your camp/church invited an AOG minister or singer?

In the long history of the Christian faith, there have been many times when sincere brethren will disagree, even riot, loot and burn down "heretical" churches - but they don't necessarily believe that others "are going to hell" just because of a difference of opinion.
Many heretics that were burned at the stake were burned or often strangled and then burned because the persecutors didn't want to be guilty of "spilling Christian blood."

Did you read the last part of the Athanasian Creed that I gave the link to?
"44. This is the catholic faith, which except a man believe faithfully he cannot be saved."

This particular version of the "Athanasian Creed" is a fraudulent document whose earliest attribution came at least 200 years after the death of Athanasius.

Thank you.
Do you think the critical consideration for their interpretations is because they are "Trinitarian?" Is that the turning point? Also, how many scholars do you think support that idea that the verse should be translated differently?

Never heard of him...he documents Oneness Pentecostal college students going to a trinitarian church and taking it over?

I think it's possible.
I don't know of any that says it should be, that is not the point. The point is these Trinitarians themselves point out how it could be translated. I don't doubt Jews translate the verse it comes from in the OT differently.
Psa 45:6 (45:7) Thy throne given of God is for ever and ever; a sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
Psa 45:7 (45:8) Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
Here is the RSV
Psa 45:6 Your divine throne endures for ever and ever. Your royal scepter is a scepter of equity;
Here is the ESV
Psa 45:6 Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness;
GNB
Psa 45:6 The kingdom that God has given you will last forever and ever. You rule over your people with justice;
Compare this with the verse in Hebrews
Heb 1:8 About the Son, however, God said: "Your kingdom, O God, will last forever and ever! You rule over your people with justice.
