Or is reforming in light of scripture only acceptable in the distant past?<\/p>\n<p>Also, did Luther and Calvin go<strong> far enough<\/strong>? Biblical unitarian Christians have long contended that our theology of the one God needs to be<strong> rolled back, past the catholic councils, to the Bible&#8217;s view<\/strong> that the one God just is the Father. While evangelicals&#8217; official ideology is that all must be based on scripture, and that the Trinity is easily derived from the Bible, in fact, they habitually defer to catholic traditions, and generally refuse to debate whether or not the Trinity can be derived from the Bible. We briefly discuss the Trinity portion of the recent &#8220;Reforming Catholic Confession,&#8221; meant as a summation of what (nearly) all Protestants believe, and relate this to scriptural language about the one God, aka the Father, and also to God&#8217;s &#8220;spirit&#8221; in the Bible.<\/p>\n<p>[spp-tweet tweet=&#8221;Is reforming in light of scripture only acceptable in the distant past?&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Links for this episode:<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/kermitzarley.com\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-39709\" src=\"http:\/\/trinities.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/think-critically-and-fact-check-386x450.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"413\" height=\"481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trinities.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/think-critically-and-fact-check-386x450.png 386w, https:\/\/trinities.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/think-critically-and-fact-check.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 413px) 100vw, 413px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/kermitzarley.com\/\">Kermit Zarley&#8217;s home page<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/kermitzarleyblog\/2017\/10\/check-flaky-theology\/\">How to Fact-Check Flaky Theology with the Bible?<\/a>&#8220;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/kermitzarley.com\/product\/the-restitution-of-jesus-christ\/\"><em>The Restitution of Jesus Christ<\/em><\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.christianitytoday.com\/\">Christianity Today magazine<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/reformingcatholicconfession.com\/\">A Reforming Catholic Confession<\/a>&#8220;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"podcast 127 \u2013 Kermit Zarley\u2019s Solving the Samaritan Riddle\" href=\"http:\/\/trinities.org\/blog\/podcast-127-kermit-zarleys-solving-the-samaritan-riddle\/\">podcast 127 \u2013 Kermit Zarley\u2019s Solving the Samaritan Riddle<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"podcast 126 \u2013 What is an evangelical?
