AB, you are right we should not call trinitarians 3 godders, we should call them skitozphrinic.
I was raised in Trinitarian Pentecost and was saved and filled with the Holy Ghost at the age of 5. I started preaching at 16 and held my first license to preach at age 16. I was educated in "Trinitarian" Bible Colleges. I have never heard a "Three God" message in my life.
It is by the grace and mercy of God that I received the Revelation of Jesus Christ and know Him as the Mighty God. I am thankful that I was baptized in the name of Jesus Christ and I identify with HIM as my Messiah, Lord and God. It is a shame that we want to resort to name calling and bashing to lift up out theological position.
IMHO - Most in the Oneness movement - have been TAUGHT Oneness Theology and Wesleyan Holiness Ideology and have NEVER had a true Revelation of Jesus Christ. They know Him with head knowledge but not in a true Revelation of who He is!

You have a wonderful testamoney. i dont agree with your assessment of Oneness people though.
I dont see trinitarians as 3 God believers, but I do find it quite difficult to keep a straight face when they get to talking about 3 persons and such.
I know One God who has saved my eternal soul. I am doubly thankful that 4 generations ago, a Wesleyan Methodist Holiness lady found the Truth of Oneness and recieved the Holy Ghost. my great grandmother was a preacher of this wonderful Truth and I am saved today because of it.
I believe it is no coincidence that it was Holiness people that God moved on in the early part of the 20th century.

I agree. I think "holiness" people have a higher consecration and that is why God moves on them. It is not about the specific standards they follow as much as that they are living sacrifices to God.
I had originally talked to someone who goes to Jone's church who told me that he told the congregation that he was leaving the PAW.
I just talked to a PAW Pastor who also confirmed this AND that they are holding a Huge meeting with all the PAW Bishops in Chicago, today as a matter Fact to find out who is staying and who is leaving
shoudl be interesting how this all shakes down. I was told by this pastor that the PAW is about 50/50 split down the middle as far as doctrine. 50% want the old path traditional apostolic teaching. the other 50% want to go mainstream for lack of a better word

true, I can agree with that, but that is the case in ANY church where religion is Passed down from generation to generation.
also , would agree that there is a wide range of beliefs amongst trinitarians? we have been scheduled to sing on programs in our community only to cancelled at the last minute simply because we are a "Oneness cult". So, this type of rhetoric works both ways.
some Trinitarians sound very close to Oneness while a few sound like Tritheist. that's what i was referring to when i mentioned the wide spectrum of beliefs

i can tell you from experience this is not true about oneness in my life, but partially true concering some "holiness"issues, however the holy host has helped me to see those "standards" in there rightful place (non-salvational issues)
