Hello all.
I was on Theology Web for a couple of years back in the day (mostly eschatology) and of course it was discouraging when it went down. So many great threads and work was lost. I do need this sort of community to support my studies and writing so I look forward to exploring here and interacting with everyone.
With respect to your Statement of Faith, I'm sure we have no practical differences, however, I do not see that the bible teaches the doctrine of original sin (Rm 5:12) or justification by faith only (Jms 2:24). I believe the Godhead is more unfathomable than you describe in your SoF. Somehow Jesus, who is God, and who is the Son of God, is able to say: "The Father is greater than I". There was some knowledge the Father had reserved to himself about the last day that Jesus himself did not know. Paul says: "For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him....then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all."
Peace.
