The "Claim to the Name"
I don't want to destroy another thread so I'll start one here.
Two songs, "His Name is Wonderful", and "Jesus, There's Something About That Name", have long been held as "Oneness" national anthems of sorts. But it's interesting to note that both songs were written by strong trinitarians, Audrey Mieir and Bill Gaither.
Here's why I bring it up...I was raised in and spent some of my adulthood in "Oneness Pentecostalism". The feeling I had then was, we had a greater understanding and appreciation of the "Name of Jesus." And certainly now that I've been more associated with the so-called "Christian mainstream" for close to 20 years which definitely leans toward trinitarianism, the view I have of Oneness Pentecostals is that they certainly seem to have a bit of a monopoly of "The Name" almost to the point of perceived "Spiritual Arrogance" about it.
Yet, it has been trinitarians who have penned the greatest lyrics concerning the value of "The Name."
So my question is this...Do "Oneness" people use "The Name" any differently or in any superior fashion than "Trinitarian" people?
