Bernard is wrong when he states those verses 'are not in any manuscripts'.

This church we are visiting is "Oneness" & I'm just trying to grasp what this is in comparison to the Trinity....

Just want to hear what some of you have to say... and I have no idea what sub-forum to post this to. Yes, I did try searching AFF as well...

THANKS!
It doesn't matter what is 'trinity vs oneness'. It matters 'what saith the Word of God'.

There is One God.

He is the Father.

He is a Spirit.

He is Holy.

He was manifested in the flesh.

Jesus is called the Son of God because He was conceived by the miraculous power of God

The Word was in the beginning, was with God, and WAS God, and created all things. IE God created all things by His word - He spoke all things into existence, to put it bluntly.

His Word was made flesh.

He is the Eternal Life which was made manifest and which the apostles heard, spoke with, saw, touched, etc (ie as JESUS).

He was resurrected and ascended into heaven bodily, but spiritually returned as the Spirit to His disciples to be their Father. (see John 14).

God was manifested in the flesh, and this is 'a great mystery' according to the apostle Paul.

The Bible clearly speaks of Jesus as a genuine human being. It also clearly calls this man 'God', 'our great God and saviour', etc.

He is the visible image of the invisible God.

He is the 'character of God's person', ie the engraving in human nature of God's substance and existence.

In him (the man, Jesus) dwells bodily all the fullness of deity.

He is a man in whom the Spirit operated, as all men should be.

Yet, He is the life giving Spirit as well.

Isaiah says he is to be recognized as wonderful, the counsellor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, and the Prince of peace.

Our understanding of these mysteries is partial in many areas, and thus often times people say things they perhaps ought not in a feeble attempt to explain things as best they can.

But, the Scripture is the Final Answer on all things.

I believe the appropriate reference here, would be 'link, or it didn't happen'. I've heard Bro. Stoneking preach, and met him before. I have a very hard time believing you, here. And if he did say that, I'd wager you're twisting the context of the comment.

I do agree that too many Oneness Pentecostals tend to get caught up in the Trinitarian language when defining our position (something that's bugged me to no end for years), but to say that none of us can explain it is an exaggeration. How about this old song, which I think says it very well?

Quote:
The Mighty God is Jesus, the Prince of Peace is He,
The Everlasting Father, the King eternally,
The Wonderful in wisdom, by whom all things were made,
The fullness of the Godhead in Jesus is displayed

And it's all in Him, it's all in Him
The fullness of the Godhead, it's all in Him
It's all in Him, it's all in Him,
The Mighty God is Jesus and it's all in Him

Emmanuel, God with us, Jehovah, Lord of Hosts,
The omnipresent Spirit that fills the universe
The advocate, the High Priest, the Lamb for sinners slain
The Author of Redemption, Oh Glory to His Name

The Alpha and Omega, Beginning and the End
The Living Word incarnate, the helpless sinners friend,
Our wisdom and perfection, our righteousness and power
Yea, all we need in Jesus, we find this very hour

Our God for whom we've waited, t'will be the glad refrain
Of Israel recreated, when Jesus comes again
Lo! He will come and save us, our King and Priest to be
For in Him dwells all fullness and Lord of all is he
How's that for a definition?

Re: Oneness vs Trinity (Can someone give a non-bi

Jito, you hit a home run with that one!

This is perhaps the most well-known anthem of Oneness Pentecostalism. Written by George Farrow, “It’s All in Him”, so clearly delineates the inter-testamental Oneness revelation of Jesus Christ as the manifest Jehovah God.

We don't sing that enough anymore.

Do you think the use of "Word" is being used as a synecdoche?

We still sing it (and songs like it) fairly often at my church. We sing newer songs, as well, but we don't forget the old hymns. I was going to go back and edit in Verse 1, Chorus, Verse 2, etc; but it appears that after a certain period, you can't edit your post anymore. Pity.

He does state that jesus is the second person of the godhead.
Quote him verbatim, not paraphrase

I have it down loaded to my computer, and also david k. Bernard and were bernard states that in 1 john chapter5 verses 7,8 are not in any manuscripts but he will teach it just the same. Which would mean he is and does teach lies.

Quote:
You oneness say god is one god with three manifestation and then state he is god the father and god the and god the holy ghost.
Please quote verbatim a Oneness person here saying "God the Father and god the son and god the holy ghost"

Re: Oneness vs Trinity (Can someone give a non-bi

Quick question... do you think the Son is eternal?

No. The son is a creation, with a defined beginning. The concept of the son goes to the beginning of time (John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word...), but eternity has no beginning.
