3. The Doctrine of the Trinity (Pt. 1) - Paul M. Williams
Bethesda Shalom
Part 3 The doctrine of God as it relates to the nature of His being is no small matter. The first three centuries of Church history were consumed with this central issue. In the second and third centuries, men like Praxeas and Sabellius argued that God was singular not only in being but also in person. Sabellius taught that, like an actor wearing different masks on stage, God likewise assumed different modes at different times to manifest Himself to man. In the Old Testament, God assumed the role of a Father; in the incarnation, the role of a Son, and in regeneration,...

2. History of Oneness Pentecostals - Paul M. Williams
Bethesda Shalom
Part 2 No movement ever existed in a vacuum. From revolutions to reformations, whether political, social or religious, no movement ever begun in a vacuum. Each was a product of their times, and it is no different when tracing the origins of the modern Oneness Pentecostal movement. It too has a beginning that arose out of Classical Pentecostalism in the early 20th Century. However, the heresies espoused by Oneness Pentecostals as they relate to the nature of God are not new. Their denial of the Trinity in favour of a modalistic view of God did not have its origins...

1. An Introduction to Oneness Pentecostals - Paul M. Williams
Bethesda Shalom
Part 1 On the surface, Oneness Pentecostals have many similarities to mainstream Pentecostals, and that is what makes them so dangerous. They affirm the deity of Jesus Christ, they believe in the continuing gifts of the Holy Spirit, they believe the Bible to be the inspired and infallible word of God, they believe in the literal Second Coming of Jesus Christ, they believe in the final judgment of the wicked and in a literal hell. On the surface, one would not find a great deal of disagreement; YET four main fundamental beliefs set them apart from orthodox Biblical...

info_outlinePart 2
Like every movement, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has had a beginning, a period of development, and a time of stability. The LDS Church has typically been separated into three distinctive periods.
1. “Early History” under the leadership of Joseph Smith, Jr.
2. “Pioneering era” under the leadership of Brigham Young.
3. “Modern Era” beginning around the turn of the 20th century
The purpose of this second teaching part is to explore this history. To understand the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints today, one must first understand the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as it began and developed. The Church makes great claims for itself and prides itself on outlandish doctrines which run counter to the Word of God. It had a founding prophet who claimed to be visited by God the Father and Jesus Christ His Son, along with a whole host of biblical characters who have long departed from this world – John the Baptist, Peter, James and John. It claims to have restored the fullness of the lost Gospel, even though it was never lost. It has three additional books of authority besides the King James Bible -- The Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price. This is more sources of extra-biblical revelation than any other cult. Such claims call for a thorough examination, and what better way to begin to do this than to start at the beginning.
