Thanks for the input. I have mainly two reasons I raised this topic.
#1 - To those that were or are still in the LC, what does the concept "Processed Triune God" mean to you in your own words? I am very curious to hear anyone's
personal take on this "Processed Triune God" term.
#2 - Although I completely disagree with modalism, how dangerous is it to hold a modalistic view of God? Could this be even of salvific consequence? And if so, why or why not?
Obviously, none of us mere humans can come even close to understanding the triune nature of God. But, I'm wondering what exactly makes modalism dangerous? Again, I personally do NOT agree with modalism, but I'd like to be further enlightened about the inherent dangers of this belief.
Many passages of Scripture clearly show that God coexists eternally (without beginning & without end) in 3
Persons. So, I'm not asking for biblical proof to refute the concept of modalism. I'm already clear on that. What I'd like to further understand is why holding onto a modalistic view....and as a result....why the teaching of the "Processed Triune God" is so dangerous, esp from a salvific perspective.
Here's just one of many questions I would ask someone who believes in modalism -- "how would you explain where God was in the 3 days after Jesus' crucifixion and before His resurrection?"
