Read what I said again. The Baron's case was jumped for fellowshipping with Trinitarians. I and others defended him. We became a bit introspective about our attitudes as Oneness people and how we're known for our "annoyances."

Somehow that was taken as bashing Oneness doctrine and the entire AFF forum was called out as being "Trinnies." The admins were singled out for advocating Trinitarianism when they were just saying things like "Trinnies don't automatically go to hell..."

Prax - the admin Oneness ninja stumbled into the room, perplexed at how he could possibly be misunderstood as a "Trinnie" anything and now we're here.

True, but there were also attacks on Onenessarians and the Oneness doctrine.

BTW, notofworks, have you checked your spirit towards me against the high level of integrity you have espoused here?

What IS my spirit towards you?? I'm very angry at you right now. You've crossed the line and gone from having objections to assembling a posse. You're flat out wrong on this and again, I'm very disappointed in you.

What is YOUR spirit toward those that are agnostic, atheist, and/or just plain backslidden?

You were very angry at me long before I started this thread.

Help me with this one Missy B. My impression is that most people here defend the idea that Trinitarians can be and are to be considered "saved."

But that doesn't come anywhere near to "defending Trinitarianism" doctrine.

What is the trinitarian doctrine in your estimation? Is it the one that allegedly doesn't exist, in which people believe in three persons in the godhead?

I agree, it probably is more about defending trinitarians, but I still read a plethora of posts defending trinitarianism, and a good number of posts arguing with basic tenets of the oneness doctrine. Ergo, I'm not going to say that EA is wrong about that.

You do have the "squeaky wheel gets the grease" phenomenon, because some people post the same stuff over and over, on multiple threads. Even if those people aren't in the majority, it can seem like it because their posts are sometimes the majority.

I ask everyone who believes in the Oneness of God, baptism in the name of Jesus, and the infilling of the Holy Ghost to choose a different forum home, from this point on.

AFF has become a place that actively mocks my beliefs. On the most recent thread I started, every admin that participated defended Trinitarianism and actively posted against Oneness doctrine.

Again, this place is now enemy territory. It exists solely to tear down basic doctrinal truths.

This thread will be removed, I'm quite sure.
This statement is 100% verifiable.

What in the world makes you say that? I had a civil discussion with you on your other thread about trinitarianism. But whatever you're perception...you're wrong. I was NOT angry with you. I disagreed with your position and if you thought otherwise, it would appear the paranoia has set in.

It isn't you against the world, Ed.
