\o/ !HALALUYah! \o/ Greetings Marlin et al in the Matchless NameofYahShua!! I, too, have had the privilege of knowing some Quakers through the years and becoming somewhat close to a few. The Penn writings of which that I wrote that took so long to procure, and were not available in any modern published form until last year, was finally procured from one of those five years ago ... a man who was an official with the Society of Friends. However, it took even he many months pouring through archives to find a very old copy with "ye Olde English" letters and all. It is a difficult read until you get used to the old spellings/writing style. He was greatly troubled by it after finding it and reading it because it was just as I represented it to be. Of course, he did not know the reason that I wanted it, or even that I am of the Scriptural, apostolic, Oneness TRUE faith. I don't have his letter handy at the moment but it was in my hands just yesterday. He sent me the photocopies and his letter expressed disdain and lack of understanding for why Penn would write like this,why I would want it, or that it would be of anygood use at all. Penn even uses the very term Oneness (with a capitalized 'O') in the very same manner as 20th century writers who write (and most believe) as though they penned it (if you'll pardon the pun which was definitely intended) as a modern, 20th century term. In fact, his writing on the subject is better than many today who believe and write on the same subject. In accordance with your friend's own words and The Words of The Saviour in Matthew 7:1-5 he is a hypocrite, coward, and a liar. Those who know me know that I do not hesitate to say things face to face with flesh and blood ... oh, and I don't do "chat rooms". By the way, there is a Scripture that BOTH affirms the Oneness of YHVH/YahShuaAND that those who are the true followers of The Saviour will be Torah observant.

He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Blaine: Marlin, I have not been following your posts beyond a brief scan (for time's sake), but this took my attention. Now I have to ask you, is the below your belief, or is it that of your friends, the quakers? If theirs, how do you interpret it?
