Why don't the oneness Pentecostals believe in the sufficiency of the blood of the Lamb?

I think OP's believe in the sufficiency of the blood of the Lamb.
1. Some believe that sin is forgiven/remitted/washed away by the blood the moment a person calls on the Lord for mercy.
2. Others believe that sin is forgiven/remitted/washed away when the name "Jesus" with or without titles such as "Lord" and/or "Christ" is invoked in water baptism
3. Others believe that sin is forgiven/remitted/washed away when a person is baptized in the Spirit (BUT only if they had been baptized "correctly and properly" in water)
Still others muddy it all up even more by making a difference between forgiveness of sin and remission of sin even though the same Greek word is translated by those 2 different English words.
