I have a book recommendation for those of you with any kind of Oneness interaction. Edward Dalcour in his book, “A Definitive Look at Oneness Theology” carefully examines the strongest arguments made by Oneness advocates and weighs the Biblical data in a sound exegetical fashion. Recently I had an interaction with an Oneness Pastor and the Oneness Pastor’s arguments concerning baptism were specifically addressed in this book in a careful sound way better than any other resource I have found on the subject. Here are the chapter headings:
- Introduction to Oneness Theology
- Examining the Oneness claim that Jesus is the Father
- Examining the Oneness claim that Jesus is the Holy Spirit
- The Preexistence of the Son
- Examining the Oneness objections to the doctrine of the Trinity
- “In the Name of Jesus” Only: Examining the Dogma of the UPCI Baptismal Formula and System of Salvation
- Modalism and the Early Church
-
The Tri-Unity of God
I contacted the author and for the same amount as the paper book I was able to obtain the electronic version in .pdf format. If you have any portable device that uses reflow technology ask him to send you the re-formatted version I worked up for my Sony Reader and sent to him for the benefit of any other users in my particular situation. Please realize that the amount of time and careful research that went into the authors’ time is very valuable and needs to be rewarded as such by a purchase per reader in my opinion.
