Re: Oneness Debates On Facebook.

This particular page on Facebook is really more of a discussion page,than it a debate so much even if the word debate is used.It is moderated by folks on both sides of the issue.

I started not to go there myself,because these sort of things can get ugly.
But there are guidelines and these issues are discussed in a kind way.

I ask everyone to be courteous in my Paltalk room. I am humiliated at times when Oneness believers name call and insult guests I have invited to be there for discussion. I do have a way to ban those on either side who refuse to be civil.

We can be strong without being rude

Re: Oneness Debates On Facebook.

In my opinion, debates generate more heat than light.

I haven't gone to any of the oneness/trinity debates on facebook.

It is my experience on facebook that many "Apostolic" people are mean and nasty to anyone who disagrees with them (especially if the person considers himself Apostolic). I was part of an Apostolic Forum on facebook and withdrew after being called a "moron" and an "apostate" and people openly questioning my salvation. Hey, if Apostolics treat one another that way, how do they treat trinitarians?

P.S. I'm not talking about Steve Winter here. His words were even more vicious than the other Apostolic brethren.

I dont push "debates". I do have a zeal for Biblical discussion. How else will those stuck in Trinitarianism find their way out? A man from England last night heard the true Oneness message and was quite positive about it. Some Oneness who have little to offer in the way of scriptural knowledge do come and use insults its pathetic.

Yet I see the attacks far more from the Trinitarian side. Sometimes I am the only Oneness in the room and get a good number of attacks. To their credit at times the Trins do show respect and courtesy. Last nights room was basically a small group of Oneness people. It was a good room people with a heart for more truth.

As I have read so far today, most of the questions are the same, just worded differently.
