What Is A Oneness Pentecostal?

[@NewLifeOfAlbanyGa]

Just a New Testament Christian.

[@bookslearning3353]

Isaiah 9:6 does not refer to Jesus as being Father as in GOD the Father. If so Jesus being born under the Law Galatians 4:4 proclaimed two Gods John 20:17 if he himself is the Father. If Jesus is the Father then his testimony is not TRUE John 8:14-18 they are two distinct Witnesses which is "Under Jewish Law". When Jesus says you have seen me you have seen the Father Jesus claim is that the Father is ONLY MONOU THEO GOD John 5:44-45 John 17:3 and that they should know GOD & Jesus Christ whom he has sent apply 1 John 4:12 no one has ever seen God. Modalism/Oneness is a CULT that has driven a stake between seekers of God with their false doctrine of speaking in tongues. You claim Jesus ONLY since we now have Acts 5:3-5 that the Holy Spirit is Defined as God I ask you since Jesus ONLY is your Theology in John 16:13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. Who is it telling God that he cannot Speak on his own? Since your belief is that there is not distinction between Father Son and the Holy Spirit. Isaiah 42 wipes the slate clean in the distinction of Father and Son. By far the Oneness Pentecostals has done more damage to the Christian Faith than any other Hersey. Starting from William Seymour and Azusa Street. 1 Corinthians 12:13 baptized into ONE SPIRIT and ONE BODY. The CULT uses the word INITIAL EVIDENCE which is NOWHERE to be FOUND IN SCRIPTURES show me where it states "INITIAL EVIDENCE" the word INITIAL is not present the Sign of Baptism is not speaking in Tongues but the confession of Jesus Christ as Lord repentance from sin and obedience to God Romans 8:1-7 1 John 4:12-16 Ephesians 1:13-15 the Evidence of the Spirit is Love Joy Peace etc. Righteousness is the Sign NOT TONGUES. Galatians 5:22-23. Not all who believe speak in Tongues 1 Corinthians 10:13 (we ALL MAKE UP THE BODY OF CHRIST) therefore the eye is not for walking but Oneness the CULT makes others feel bad for not speaking in tongues while forcing human being to fake a delusion as if one is speaking in tongues. (This is by Pressure not by Love) Matthew 16:16-18 Jesus tells Peter who do you say I am Peter replies you are the son of God. Jesus says blessed are you Peter for not Flesh and Blood has revealed this to you but MY FATHER whom is in HEAVEN. Jesus Christ was both Flesh and Blood. Acts 2:38 most Oneness Pentecostals do not even know what epi in the Greek stands for and yet do not even consider Exodus 3:14 and Revelation 3:12 (Read Revelation 3:12) and see whom is the Speaker. The use of Isaiah 9:6 demonstrates the lack of understanding from the ONENESS Pentecostals - To Even Remotely suggest that Isaiah 9:6 has any relevance to HO THEOS assures your lack of understand see John 16:28 I came from exēlthon the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”(A) It is absolutely abhorrent and false along with the cult practices of The Oneness Pentecostal. Do you know how many people have actually felt inferior because they have not spoken in tongues and actually have given up their faith because they actually feel they are not good enough or there is something wrong with them because the HOLY SPIRIT is the one who gives Gifts therefore they did not speak in Tongues so they must conclude that it is them that lacks FAITH because they did not speak in Tongues? God will absolutely ABOLISH this False Religion and this Cult. Good Luck with your Legalistic Cult Practices Steve Waldron when BEN OF DAVID comes and absolutely destroys the Cult and this Theology it will be a wonderful day for all people. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWqooWONfaamf7s kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIe0d5t9eZ6NpJY

I found this video very enlightening AND so close to my own heart. I was raised Trinitarian Pentecostalism most of my early life. Around the age of 10/11 my Parents joined a “Oneness Pentecostal “ church in rural Summerville, Georgia. This parish was closely allied with the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit in Atlanta, Georgia headed by ARCHBISHOP Earl Paulk. Bishop David Huskins was our intermediate in Cedartown, Georgia. Oddly enough, I became Roman Catholic in 1995 and remained a Catholic in principle until about a year ago. That large Oneness Cathedral in Atlanta changed its name to Spirit and Truth Sanctuary about 5 years ago and is now the largest “Beloved Community “ congregations in the Southeast. They are closely aligned with All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma of which I am now a member. Small world…..small decisions, different world views. I don’t hate my past…. I include it into my future.

If I haven’t spoken in tongues (Baptized by the Holy Ghost) or Baptized in Jesus name would you say I’m lost? I confessed my sins and asked God to forgive me and confessed Jesus as Lord and Saviour in a UPC church my wife and her family had attended for years. I attended this church while reading the Bible for the first time in my life. I was comfortable there until I got to Romans 8:9. When I read this verse I was stopped dead in my tracks and just kept reading this over and over and over. I was saved in my mind without a doubt but this verse states that if you don’t have the Spirit of Christ you do not belong to him. The Pastor would preach all the time about being Baptized by the Spirit with speaking in tongues and preached that if you haven’t spoken in tongues you haven’t been Baptized by the Spirit. According to his teaching I can’t be saved!! I’ve never spoken in tongues and was Baptized in the Matthew 28:19 formula. Would you consider me to be lost?

Great presentation, Pastor.I wish that between we, who are Oneness Apostolic, and the trinitarian believers could come to agee on a fundamental formula for someone to be born again.I was water baptized in the trinitarian formula, was baptized in the Spirit, and rebaptized in Jesus name, all within the same week.I can't say that i wasn't a child of God before i was baptized in His name.I do think that, the scriptures teach me that there are dire consequences for not obeying Him, the way He says for us to do something.Lastly, it amazes me that trinitarian pentecostals baptized by the Holy Spirit don't have a clear revelation as to who Jesus is.

Hi friend! Confess Jesus Christ as The Lord, and ask Him for the Holy Ghost, and you will receive! You will speak in tongues, yes. But focus on Jesus not tongues. Tongues are the by product and sign of the life changing infilling of God’s Spirit. I have found when people focus on tongues instead of on Jesus, so often the simple New Birth process gets gummed up as it were.

I have two questions you may be able to answer: 1. Isn't his son, just himself? I am still not getting how Jesus is the Father when so much speaks different to that. 2. What about the prophet Agabus, mentioned in Acts, where he makes two different prophecies? Isn't that a prophet speaking for God? Anyway, hope for a reply. Never expect any, however.

The Scriptures are clear. He was God manifest in the flesh. I am apostolic and there's nothing here scholarly to see. The clear rendering of the whole canon submits to us The Father, The Word and the Holy Ghost. Why do we accept, 'And God said", prior to the Second Law and not all that He'said beyond the Second Law. He also spoke concerning Himself four books prior to Deuteronomy. Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7. No one disputes His words on the right side of Let Us of these verses, only Us.

New Life Of Albany Ga. nowhere in Isaiah 9:6 does it says that the messiah is God the father. It’s like saying that because Abraham is called the father of the Jews that means he is God the father. That is absurd. Read Psalm 110:1. How can the messiah sit at the right hand of God? Also Philippians 2:11 explicitly says that every tongue will confess Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the father. Another distinction yet they are both deity. Genesis 19:24 shows two divine person. Isaiah 44:6 shows two divine persons. Isaiah 48:16 shows 3 divine persons. John 1:1 shows 2 divine persons. Jesus is the Word of God. John 1:14 days the WORD became flesh. The father didn’t become flesh. Also at the baptism of Jesus the father was clearly speaking and was distinct from Jesus and the spirit who descended like a dove. Theres distinctions within the Godhead. You are wrong to say the Father became flesh. Revelation 5:13 shows the distinction between the father and the lamb who is Jesus. Daniel 7:9-14 shows the distinction between the Ancient of days and the son of man. This oneness doctrine is heresey.

[@OMEGATROPOLIS]

Riaz Qureshi How much of God was in Jesus? 1/3? 1/3 of the Father is God? And 1/3 of the Holy Spirit is God? If I say the Jesus was God and the Father was God then two Gods exist. Was the Word a part of God that became flesh to you? That God sent a part of him in Jesus? So the Word is 1/3 God? These are questions I am honestly asking as I did not know that the Catholic Church introduced trinity doctrine and later would spill over to the Protestant reformation as well. The question is why would they make sure people come to the trinity as Jesus not being the Father. However a child can use bible verses to confuse the most knowledgeable scholar about how the trinity can be confusing. The catch is the difference of Jesus or Jesus the Christ? There is not antiJesus there is the antiChrist. Does the trinity help take the Diety away from Jesus Christ? Can it be that if you remove the Father out of Jesus Christ then He would be just Jesus. The idea of the Christ was that man and God could coexist fully into one being. By saying the Father is not the son you are correct but by saying the Father is not in the Son and the Son not in the Father is incorrect.

[@infinityApologeticsClips]

I am saying that Jesus Christ is God alone made up of the Father and the Son. Now go and read the Gospels again. I give full authority and Power to Jesus Christ alone anything otherwise can be seen as the AntiChrist... (the idea to slowly take away the diety of Jesus Christ through trinity doctrine induced by The Church) The Church (early Catholic Church) had their hand in everything. Michael Servatus was condemned by the Catholics and Protestants and burned at the stake for saying he did not believe in the trinity.

[@Exodus--bx3dd]

The trinity 3 are one is not how God shows himself. Its is how we define God. Not how God presents the Godhead. Look at Gen 1:26-27.. the image of God is both Adam and Eve. How God made man , male and female also presents the order of the Godhead. Adam 1st, then from out of Adam came Woman.. out of man. This depicts the relationship God has with the Son. God is 1st, then God produced out of himself the mirror image of himself, the stamp , the die , from whom all creation would be moulded to and he said, " You are my Son, this day I have begotten you." This is the eternal life that was with and in the Father and was manifest to mankind in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. He abides in the Father from everlasting but was kept hidden, even from the Angels. Then before the world was made God brought him forth , presented his heir, firstborn, the beginning, the chief the head the first of all Gods ways from everlating before the Angels were created. They two are one Spirit. So God made Adam and Woman from one flesh and bone.. they two are man. Just as the Father and the Son are Gods ( Hebrew Elohim plural) one Spirit. Then Adam called the woman , out of man , Eve for she , is the mother of all living. So the Word came forth of God, and God named him Son, for from him came forth all creation. Jesus proclaimed the God head , "The Father and I are One" this is 3 The oneness of the Father and the Son is the Holy Spirit. And he is also himself. So really the trinity would be ascribed to the Holy Spirit. Again John said "Whosever denies the Father and the Son is Antichrist" John did not include the Holy Spirit. Yet acknowledges the unction of the Holy one.. this refers to the anointing poured upon the Priests by the High Priest of our faith Jesus Christ.

Why not believe THAT father is God and Jesus is his son? John 17.3. 1 cor 8.6. One God the father AND one lord Jesus Christ.

How is Christ going to be the only God and will have a God to worship? John 20:17 (note that here he is in the flesh as a limited human but in the following text it is already stated at the most in heavenly glory ) In Revelation 3: 12, Christ says the same name four times, there is no text in the Bible to remember the word God appears 4 times in the same verse. Note also that Revelation 3: 12 tells us that he receives a new name. What new name can Almighty God receive? What can be new for God? Revelation 2: 17. The Father is the God of Christ, but the Father has no God, so He has no superior, the Father is the only Highest. The only way the Father is the God of Christ in heaven is if Christ is inferior to the Father and is different from the Father.

When the Son of God prayed as the Son of Man, how can that be interpreted as (humanity) flesh talking to the Father? The Lord Jesus Christ is the Second Man of course, who happens to be The Lord "from" glory (Before The Word was made flesh). John 7: 29 Christ said, I know Him, for I am "from" Him, and He hath sent Me. Christ Jesus is the last Adam, a Spirit giving life. He also said, I am the resurrection and the life. He went on to say, I am in the The Father as the Father is in Me. He was More than the Son of Man He was God manifested in the flesh. For it is written, And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the gentiles , believed on in the world, received up into "glory". He is the Lord from glory, The Word Who was in the beginning, Who was with God, Who is God, the "Same" was in the beginning with God. Listen beloved, the Father said this My beloved Son. The Father claimed Him as His Son. Satan identified Him and tempted Him as The Son of God. The demons recognized Him with eternal judgement in mind I might add. Moses and Elijah appeared after His transfiguration talked with Him and the voice out of the cloud saying, This is My beloved Son; hear Him. They are One and they are "Us". Oneness view violates the clear teaching from Genesis to the maps in this connection which sets forth the "Usness" God in concert with One Jehovah. Brother, you say it doesn't require Two Persons, I submit unto you, it does requires the Father and the Son. The Father cannot be the Son, why, because the Scriptures hath distinguished Him to be the Father. The Son cannot be the Father because inspiration has declared Him to be the Son.

[@scottdeeter1280]

The bible says "great is the mystery of Godliness" therefore many debate. Jesus the "man" was also God because he was a pure representation of the word, and the Holy Ghost. He lived without sin and never rebuked Thomas for calling him both Lord and God. He even went on to explain that his faith was confirmed by what he saw, and stated that it took greater faith for those who believe without that visual confirmation. Jesus identified God as many things but he never identified himself as part of a trinity. As a matter of fact he spoke he declares himself as the Alpha and Omega in revelations. This was a title that God held for himself. In the old testament God spoke of himself as a singular being and declared himself as the saviour even back then. The greatest commandment Deuteronomy 6:4 ....Hear O Isreal the Lord our God is One Lord! It is reinforced in Ephesians 4:5,6 which even includes baptism. I was brought up in a religious home and saw many things that did not fit. Oneness, baptism in Jesus's name fit very well. John chapter 3 says That unless a man is "born again" of the water and the spirit.....that he can't SEE the kingdom of God.........in old testament it spoke of having eyes to see......and they see not. That is a reference towards being unable to understand. The new testament speaks of the "renewing of our mind" and says we are to "put on the mind of Christ".......he didn't teach us of a trinity.....why should we believe in one.

[@dennisdabney493]

The mystery was explained in the *said* text you began to quote, just keep reading. Listen, we cannot omit the initial revelation found in Genesis chapters 1, 3, 11 and we cannot go "elsewhere" to properly exegete those absolutely clear passages to support a held belief. Calvinist, liberals and all the of the strange doctrines which have come in from the side door do the same. They back-read into the Sacred text, that is going forward to certain verses and then come back, in inject content. Moses had no problem with Genesis 1,3,11 and the Second Law reference 6:4 There are 4 books to the left of Deuteronomy. "One" LORD taught by the Holy Scriptures, divinely set forth in the Seed Plot book must not be "ignored" in haste to establish doctrines of men. Deuteronomy 6 hermeneutically, cannot be interpreted apart from previous illumination and subsequent revelation. In other words from Genesis to Revelation allowing all of the text given to set forth our Great God before us. He's spoke for Himself! Personally, I do not believe the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ had the time nor the desire to spend on such a subject when God has said, Let Us. No matter how you approach this, Elohim spoke and said Let Us make man in Our Image before we were around to raise the question. This isn't about One because that's clear in Holy Writ, no this is about oneness. There's a theological difference.

@@dennisdabney493 Dennis Dabney, I appreciate your reply. You sound as if you have given this some real thought. John 4:24 tells us that God is a spirit. A spirit is unlimited to ways of manifestations. A spirit as powerful as he is can be in many places at one time. We are carnal meaning our experience and knowledge are with limits. I feel that God being omnipresent and in control makes him without the need to be split up into persons of a trinity. This is a being with ultimate power that has done the jobs of creation, author, King, prophet, son, etc. Hope to hear back. Thanks for interacting.
