Almost everything else is subject to interpretation. For example, how one interprets prophecy. Or how one interprets church structure. Or how one interprets marriage, divorce, and remarriage. Or how one interprets what Genesis has to say about creation. Or how one interprets modesty. Or how one interprets the issue of tithing. Or how the OT Law relates to a life in Christ under Grace. All these things are subject to interpretation. The interpretations of these issues that one eventually embraces after they have done much study should enrich their life in Christ and be edifying. But salvation isn't predicated upon them.

I think the God "became" Jesus of modern oneness is not the right approach to oneness, and may be a serious error.
I think the God INSIDE Jesus doctrine in the Bible is the proper definition of 1st century oneness(but dont want that debate to start here).
