    Any reason why O.P. is in the Areopagus forum?

    Any posts about Oneness Pentecostalism is put in the Areopagus forum. I find this very offensive. We preach the Jesus of the Bible. To say we don't is a very miskewed concept out there. We don't believe that you are wrong b/c you are trinitarian, most of us don't, we just don't agree that trinitarian view of God as far as saying He's 3 persons is not a scripturally sound way of putting the Godhead. All of a sudden we are called a "cult" and placed in the same forum as islam and LDS and SDA and JW??!! This is really a wrong belief, we are a branch off of the Assemblies of God, so put them in there too. And anybody from the COGIC, TD Jakes' church, or COG, you can put them in there too.
    He died a bloody death for you, but you want to live a scratch free life for Him, something seems wrong here...

    SaveMeDaily - this is a Trinitarian based board. That's the way of it. Now, either you can get your knickers in a wad about which forum your posts are in or you can discuss your beliefs and ours. The choice is totally yours - but the knickers being wadded up won't get you much but uncomfortable.

    I would have to agree somewhat. I am a trinitarian, but I do not think the yay you see the Godhead neccessarily makes you a cult.

    but, if you were on a oneness board, they wouldn't put ur posts in an Areopagus section
    Judge not, lest ye be judged... guess y'all forgot about that one

    That verse has absolutely nothing to do with judging doctrine.

    If someone invites you in for tea you don't kick your feet up onto the coffee table and spill the tea all over the floor do you?

    There is a sticky at the top of this board with the posting rules on it. I'd suggest that you read it and remember that you're a guest here just like the rest of us.

    Not that I'm anybody special I just wanted to give some friendly advice.

    I would like to read what you have say about Oneness on the proper board though.

    This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

    SaveMeDaily, have they not told you at the church where you attend that oneness doctrine does put you outside mainstream Christianity, like with SDA, Mormons and the like? The trinity is and always has been the accepted norm or orthodox Christinity.

    You CAN discuss it, but only in certain forums.
    My favorite scripture: Malachi 3:16

    "Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name!" (Every time we speak of the Lord, or even THINK of him--its written down in a book of remembrance!)

    Well as an AoG minister and district overseer I can assure you that COGIC, the Potters House, TD Jakes and CoG are not part of the AoG

    Here is a link to the rule that specifies this.

    Fenris is a Christian in denial.....................
    If Satan can keep us busy swinging our swords at one another, there is no hope of a united attack on the kingdom of darkness. KJV, NIV, ESV or ABCDEFG; there is no time to bicker over such things. We'll devour each other if allowed to continue. We should grab the marching orders written in the way we best understand and get to work.

    Think of the board as a village. There are public places here as in all communities that would be considered common areas where all are welcome. In most all communities, there are several churches. There is not a common worship.
    Although the majority of the population are trinitarian, we welcome all people to learn and share Scipture.

    It just happens that our charter was written with the trinitarian faith as our base.

    Everyone has the freedom of expression. We have simply designated areas that certain pulpits are allowed since they are outside of the community charter.

    Each forum has it's own unique set of rules. You can consider these a map with all the street names, so while you navigate, you'll know exactly where you are, and will always be able to find your way home again.

    We even have an information forum, for those looking for direction, and a lost and found!

    SaveMeDaily...I'm thrilled that you are here and discussing the things that you are. I have friends that are members of an Apostilic (Oneness) church and I love them to death despite our disagreements. They are some of the most spiritual and uplifting people I know. If I knew you on a personal basis, I'm sure I would feel the same way about you.

    Please stick around. By no means are Oneness folks a cult.

    SaveMeDaily, if it's of any consequence to you, Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox posts are placed here as well. It's teachings that are widely divergent from mainline Prostestantism.

    Not sure if that will help you or not.
