Over the past few weeks, I found myself not being myself. i found myself being the old Bill Price, filled with hate and venom, pointing fingers to those whom were innocent, damning to hell that which I should not have. It cost me a lot, I price I chose to pay. But, I want to take just a few moments, and issue this apology to my Oneness friends.
In my zeal, in my anger, and in my hatred, I accused Oneness of denying the deity of the Son. Though some Oneness do, many do not, and believe the Son was not just the body Christ came in. I do apologize for saying what I have said, and am taking this time to fully and openly say sorry for the hatefilled things I have said in the past.
To mizpeh and Praxeas on AFF, I apologize for attacking on CARM, a site I no longer frequent. I saw what I had become, and I saw what i was doing, and I do apologize for my actions.
To all my friends, I apologize for any hurt feelings, and I ask forgiveness.
As a minister, as a believer, as a man trying his best to make sense of things in his life right now, I acted immaturely and improperly. All I can do, and I will do, is ask forgiveness, and continue on in Christ.
Sincerely,
William Michael Price

I've never held anything against BP, but you have to admit, this trend is becoming quite tiresome.

We're all entitled to opinions ... Love is longsuffering.
We all choose ... everyday.
Understood, and your friendship with BP is admirable. But, don't forget, true friendship does not enable wrong behavior. True friendship corrects gently.

Maybe your friendship will help BP to get "centered". We all "evolve", or in the words of some "devolve", but it usually doesn't happen in the rubber band way that our dear friend has experienced.
Hopefully you can be a help to him, Daniel.

I appreciate the appology. I agree with Dan love is longsuffering....
my only question is, should a minister have to issue that many open appologies?
As a side note, most of us will pay lip service to the notion of "looking at an issue from every side"
Bill has made that a life practice.
Bill obviously has a problem being able to think clearly. He might be driven by guilt and the fear of being wrong. In my opinion he should drop the 'minister' label. It has become a meaningless title. I hope he finds peace and a sound mind and I hope he finds and holds on to truth.
