Editorial Review:
"Jesus Only" churches deny the Trinity by claiming that there is only one God and Jesus is the Father and the Holy Spirit. This book offers an overview of this movement and its theology along with a biblical response.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Using Sources Correctly
"Jesus Only Churches" is a joke. I read the book and the author, E Calvin Beisner, did not even use some sources correctly. For example, the page where Beisner quotes from the BDAG Greek lexicon that the Greek word "for" means "because of" is not even their. The grammar rules in Greek state how genetive presuppositions use the key word "of" in translations, and the Greek word and preposition that is translated to render the English word "for" is a Greek accusative preposition meaning for, to access, ...

Rating:  - Good starter information
For those that are new to the Jesus Only issue this book offers a well written and concise over view of the beliefs of the largest "Oneness" group, the United Pentecostal Church (UPCI). This work is not meant to be an exhaustive rebuttal against every doctrine in the movement. While not agreeing with everything the author writes, there is enough information here to inform the average reader about this movement. It appears that many of the negative reviews are from those in the movement that are responding ... Read More
Rating:  - Booklet fails in this purpose
The back cover of Beisner's booklet promises to vide "essential and liable information and fights" on Oneness Pentecostalism. Unfortunatethe booklet fails in this purpose and actually cres significant obstacles for understanding and communication. The antagonistice prejudicial tone does not foster dialogue, much of the inforation is simply wrong, the presentation of Oneness Pentecostal doctrinal views is seriously flawed, and the presentation of historic, "orthodox understanding" is surprisingly ...

Rating: - I agree with R. J. Caplinger
I too saw the presentation that Mr. Beisner gave on the Ankerberg show. He was very rude and interuptive through the whole debate. Take a look at the response that was given by him in this review. He can't even accept constructive critism.
However,I did find his book to be very educational. There were a lot of scriptures that he tried to use to prove trinitarianism that I had never seen used before. I can honestly say that I can use this book to witness to trinitarians about the true Oneness belief. There ... Read More
Rating: - Good arguments & organization
Unlike many of the comments posted concerning this book, I found it to be a well organized, fair, informing representation of Oneness Pentecostal theology. While unusual and somewhat technical in format, this book provides the reader with a strong overview of this particular theological system, sound Biblical arguments against it, and a preparation for interaction with people who believe these doctrines. While some of the reviewers commented that E. Calvin Beisner was unfair, unsound, and condescending in this ... Read More
