Jehovah-Jesus by C.H. Yadon

Some time back in the past I read something by an anti-Oneness person who claimed that Bro. Yadon had plagiarized a previous book that presented Jesus as the Archangel Michael as the JW's do. He claimed that Bro. Yadon had pretty well reproduced that arian book with just a few word changes here and there. I don't know how accurate that was since the person (and I don't remember now who it was) was anti-Oneness.

My former pastor, F.E. Curts, one time referred to Bro. Yadon as "old two god Yadon" when he was talking to me. I don't remember anything else about that conversation.

I would like to read the book again just to see what it really says (or at least what I think it says or how I understand what he is saying).

************************************************** *******

I thought it spoke of YHWH and the Man Christ Jesus. Sometimes folks think a teacher is teaching atleast 2 Gods. Because they talk about Jesus the Man and Jesus the Word Made Flesh. The beginning being YHWH.

I would like to read the book as well.

I am posting this on a couple of different forums.

When I see ads like these I'm tempted to make a copy and send them to the publisher with a check for the original amount, requesting the book. It would almost be worth the $1.50 or so for the satisfaction of a good laugh!!

Sorry I don't have any books from PPH that date from further back than mid 80s or so.

Several years ago I obtained a copy of the original book that C.H. Yadon's reprint was based upon. It had once belonged to a Unitarian church library.

About the same time, I was able to purchase an old volume (1870s) by Presbyterian theologian John Miller, which included his treatise "Is God A Trinity?" (This was reprinted about a century later by the UPC.)

I'm hoping I may still have these books in storage, but fear they may have been lost, along with other teasures, after a move. If I ever get them back in my hands I'll let you know, Sam!

It says right there how to order it, Sam. What are you waiting for?

Fudge speaking of Yadon says his peers often felt he held trinitarian or even Arian views on the Godhead. And was called derisively by some as "Two-God" Yadon.

It appears that Yadon's christological views were highly influenced by his father in the gospel, Harry Morse of Oakland, CA.

He may have very well held the views of his "father in the Gospel".

Both seem to have held some minority views on such things like " the Godhead, propehcy, eternal punishment, original sin and the new birth".

Morse believed in the annihilation of the wicked.

Men like Yadon, Clyde Haney, David Gray, Ellis Scism were mentored by Morse at his bible training school at his church.

Morse believed in the annihilation of the wicked.

Dan,

Did he have "sons" who followed him in this belief? Where are they?

Back in the late nineteen fifties or early nineteen sixties, my pastor referred to him as "two god Yadon" in just a passing reference in a conversation.

I had a copy of his book at one time and read it. I don't remember much about it. It seemed like he wound up with "two" in the godhead --the invisible Spirit and God localized as the Word, so, maybe it wasn't really two beings but God manifested two ways. That belief in Jesus as the Word was also held by Bishop Haywood , John Paterson, Ted Fitch and several others. This is a quote from Bishop Haywood's book on the names of God:

This is a quote from Bishop G.T. Haywood:
Elohim is God, the living God, the power of creation. (John 1:1-3; Col 1:15-17; Rev 3:4-11). He first assumes a creature form, though spiritual in nature (Gen 12:7; 32:24-30; Isa 6:1,5) afterwards, the human form for the purpose of redeeming mankind (Jon 1:14; Heb 2:9, 14, 16, 17; Phil 2:7; Rom 8:3). That Elohim, in His creature form spiritually, who appeared to the patriarchs and prophets is the same who appeared in a human form 1,900 years ago to Israel can be clearly seen by reading the following scriptures: Gen 17:13; Ex 6:2, 3 with John 8:56-58; Isa 6:1, 2, 5, 9, 10 with John 12:39, 40, 41, 44, 45. from page 3 of Divine Names and Titles of Jehovah by Eld G.T. Haywood (no copy right date).
