I think he meant, some things are not questionable or debatable.. they are set in stone. the Godhead & Salvation is only one way! There is no debate.
Remember he is speaking to the church, not sinners. Of course sinners will and should ask questions! But if you have been in the church for years and your starting to question the new birth & oneness... you got problems
Those that never question those things have just as many problems!

Why is it a problem to question even the New Birth and oneness, among other things? Anything that is 'truth' will stand up to everything you can throw at it (if done with intellectual honesty).

The UPC fellowship was first formed upon the very idea that there was some question about the details of the New Birth. A sizable group of men felt that remission of sins was by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ which was shed at Calvary (Romans 3:25).
Are we to not analyze that? Are we supposed to not ask questions about the merger and the latter manner in which a good number of sincere and vital components to the body of Christ were amputated?
Yeah, but their backs are against the wall. They know that they have no justification for "preaching" much of what they do and that they haven't even answered the "sinner's" questions, let alone the questions of their own brethren.

What do you with the MANY variations of Oneness Doctrine? There isn't an agreed upon orthodoxy in Pentecostalism on this. You do realize this?
Maybe your unity is being AGAINST the Trinity, but not necessarily for a unified theology of the Oneness?

At the Mich mens conf. J. H. Osborn pleaded to the next generation of men: "You did not write this doctrine, do not change it, do not analyze it, just preach it!"
I take it that Bro Osborn only meant that the Apostolic doctrine comes direct from the Bible and that the next generation should not change it!
