I came across 2 videos on YouTube tonight which puzzled me. Both were Mickey Mangun singing with trinitarians. When I was much younger, I don't think that would have happened. Other UPCI singers can be found on YouTube singing away at primarily trinitarian events.
Why is this happening?
Do those who openly fellowship with trinitarians believe trinitarians who have not been baptised in Jesus' Name are now saved?
Are they trying to convert the trinitarians and bring them into Oneness Pentecostal belief?
Will this fellowship with trinitarians weaken or strengthen the Oneness Pentecostal movement in the longer term?
I genuinely am interested in the motivation behind this.

Greetings, Ulsterman! My family hails from Sligo and Clare counties, so Dia duit! What is the situation up there like? I'm interested to know how receptive the people are to Truth, considering the centuries long sectarian traditions seem very strong, both catholic and Orange.
