The one God is the Father alone, and Jesus is his human Messiah, who is now exalted as Lord and Savior.

No one in the Bible worshipped a tri-personal God.
In this week’s episode, we look at the various ways biblical authors expressed worship, particularly the objects of their worship. We will see how the Father is worshiped, how the Son is worshiped, and how worship can be rightly given to qualified human beings. We even consider whether the Holy Spirit is worshiped and whether all three (Father, Son, and Spirit) appear as a single object of worship.

A detailed analysis on an overly-abused passage.
Zechariah 12:10 says Yahweh himself was pierced. How did the prophet intend his readers to understand this imagery, and what do we make of the passage being reapplied to the death of Jesus, Yahweh's Son? This episode explores the meaning of Yahweh's piercing, the Jewish messianic reading of the passage, and how the Gospel of John and Revelation reused it for completely new purposes.

This is a great discussion of the Gospel of John without the presuppositions of the later creeds.
Grateful to be a guest on @maklelan’s Data Over Dogma to talk about Unitarianism and the Wisdom Christology within the Gospel of John. youtu.be/YYjWcwsPZtM?is=imy7…

Amen to that. Also, the earlier "ecumenical" councils also added requirements for belief that we never see preached in Acts. And every such meeting, going back to 325, was unduly warped by meddling emperors. youtu.be/KVh8HH_ghik?is=c4LN…
Paul did not believe Jesus was a God-man. Jesus was God's man.
Does Jesus Christ have two natures: a divine nature he has always possessed and a human nature he assumed at his birth? In other words, is Jesus 100% God and 100% man? Romans 1:3 states that Jesus was born from the seed of David according to the flesh. We will look closely at Romans 1:3 to discuss the birth of the Son of God, which has nothing to do with a preexistent Son coming down from heaven and assuming human nature.

Since Origen believed that God created the Holy Spirit through the Son, he cannot be claimed by Trinitarians as one of their own.
Origen of Alexandria was a famous Middle Platonist who introduced the idea of the Son's eternal generation, but did he believe in the doctrine of the Trinity? This week's episode examines what Origen believed and taught about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In short, no, Origen was not a trinitarian, and he was highly criticized by later trinitarians for his beliefs. He was a Platonically influenced, two-stage logos subordinationist who believed the true God was the Father alone.

Required viewing.
What does Jesus mean when he speaks of the preexistent glory that he possessed with the only true God before the world existed? How does wisdom christology shed much-needed light on this disputed passage? This week's episode explores John 17:5 and reveals that it has nothing to do with conscious preexistence at all. youtu.be/lJ7qd4eC0W4

No lies detected.
According to the authors of the New Testament, Christ is the human Messiah who did not consciously preexist his birth. Learn more about the theology of the early Christians in my newest book: amzn.to/47jldOc

Why do they always truncate when quoting this verse?
It ends "to the glory of God the Father"
Clue: there is only one God named in this verse!
Every knee will bow before Jesus, both the living and the dead.
Every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
Whether willingly now or in the day of judgment, everyone will ultimately acknowledge who Jesus is.
“At the name of Jesus every knee should bow… and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.” Philippians 2:10–11

How triune God theories conflict with the Bible. This is why you currently see the trend towards pseudo trinitarian theologies such as so-called "monarchical trinitarianism" and "conciliar trinitarianism." This is also a chapter in my recent book.

Another Trinitarian proof-text thoroughly unraveled.
What is the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, and why did Jesus say that it was unforgivable? This week’s episode examines the context of the controversy, particularly the accusations hurled at Jesus, who admits to casting out demons by the power of the Spirit. The Father empowered Jesus with the Spirit at his baptism, so to speak against the Spirit is to speak against the Most High God himself.
