I had a burned-in vision of the oneness even before I ever heard of these folks. I got it from the Bible. One God, one Lord and Savior, one faith... etc. It was pretty clear to me. I thought it admirable that someone was willing to take a stand on the ground of oneness, and it was a big reason I threw my lot in with this crew.
To use Toledo's parlance, I also found a lot of sudsy, dirty bathwater in the tub, and it surely needed draining! But the 'baby' of oneness is clearly in God's word, and I keep it. We are one not because we follow Lee's teachings nor because we're united in opposition. We are one because one day we believed, and the light came, the true light which shined into the world.
