Of course I have no idea who this teacher is and I don't need to know.
When the UPC was formed in 1945, ministers with different opinions on the new birth came together in a new organization. Some ministers believed that justification/salvation/regeneration happened at repentance. Others believed that justification/salvation/regeneration did not happen until repentance, water baptism, and Spirit baptism had been experienced. We don't really know how many or what percentage of those ministers fell into either of those two groups. The main thing was that they agreed to fellowship based on baptism in Jesus' name and would respect one another's opinions about how and when a person is saved or born again. Why can't we Oneness/Apostolic/Pentecostal folks do the same today? Why do we (both one-steppers and three-steppers) argue, criticize, put down, belittle, mock, condemn, etc instead of respecting one another and accepting one another as brothers and sisters?
1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
2 It is like the precious ointment poured on the head, that ran down on the beard, even the beard of Aaron [the first high priest], that came down upon the collar and skirts of his garments [consecrating the whole body].
3 It is like the dew of [lofty] Mount Hermon and the dew that comes on the hills of Zion; for there the Lord has commanded the blessing, even life forevermore [upon the high and the lowly].
Psalm 133:1-3 from the Amplified Bible
