what I learned about oneness pentecostalism

[Nameaboveallnames]

I believe Jesus is God and the Trinity.

May I ask what you mean when you say that you believe Jesus is the Trinity? Are you saying that you believe he is all three "persons" (for lack of a better word) in the Trinity or that he is just one "member" (again, for lack of a better word) of the Trinity?

Since I am new here, let me openly state that I fully believe in Jesus' divinity, even though he was not given the name "Jesus" until the time of his incarnation. As I just alluded to, I also fully believe that Jesus took humanity upon himself approximately two thousand years ago or that he now has a dual nature.

P.S.

I also fully believe in a triune Godhead or Trinity, but my understanding of the same might differ from the opinions of others.

If I am going to enter the pool, figurative speaking, then I might as well just do a cannonball.

Although I fully believe that the one we now call "Jesus" (he wasn't given that name until the time of his incarnation) has been God or divine from eternity past, I do not believe that he has always been "the Son of God." Instead, I believe that he became the Son of God at the time of his incarnation, or I believe in what is called "Incarnational Sonship." I definitely do not believe that Jesus has always been "God the Son," terminology which never appears in scripture, nor do I believe that he was "eternally begotten," which is a self-contradictory term, as is alleged in The Nicene Creed. If anybody wants to discuss the reasons behind my stated beliefs civilly, then I am down for some polite conversation. Whatever you do, please don't assume that you know why I believe what I believe without simply asking me to explain my beliefs. Thank you.
