@sonship saidI wouldn’t know as I’ve never been a member of a/the Unitarian church.
Maybe you just have no experience but ONLY doctrinal Unitarian dogmas.

@sonship saidWe aren’t talking about the “riches of salvation in Christ”, we are talking about you posting erroneous teaching.
Human words cannot exhaust the riches of enjoyment of the salvation in Christ. This doesn't mean every poem or hymn is of perfect conformity to orthodox teaching. But many are.
Sonship, are you permitted to teach in your local church?
Oh no another Gotcha! Checkmate question. Oh No !!!
Groan.
Around in circles we go.
"You may all prophesy one by one that all may learn and all may be encouraged." Look up how a normal local church meeting is encouraged to be in First Corinthians 14.
This makes little difference to "the Lord is the Spirit" plain as the nose on your face for everyone to see and believe in the New Testament (2 Cor. 3:17).
Do I need someone in a clerical mediatorial class standing over my shoulder ready to defrock me at some slip of the pen ?

@divegeester saidHa ha I'd stay out of here if I were you.
Here are three to kick off
“Jesus flowing” not in the bible...
What does the bible say? It says “Jesus abides”.
“Fountain of blood” Not in the bible...
What does the bible say? “blood was shed” blood is “sprinkled”
“God is three” Not in the bible...
What does the bible say? “God is one”
If it’s not in the bible don’t say it.
I came here once and that was enough for me.
@divegeester saidYou don't have to be a member to adopt the Unitarian theology of denial of the trinity and belief in universal salvation.
I wouldn’t know as I’ve never been a member of a/the Unitarian church.
Maybe you were never a member because you just can't get along with anybody else long enough.

@sonship saidOk, well I think the trinity is a man made ideology which is unsubstantiated in scripture and not even mentioned by name.
You don't have to be a member to adopt the Unitarian theology of denial of the trinity and belief in universal salvation.
If that alone makes me a “Unitarian” then that’s fine by me.
@divegeester
Of course I am permitted to teach in the local church where I meet.
Why are you so dense? "You may all prophesy one by one that all may learn and all may be encouraged." (1 Cor. 14:31)
"TEACHING AND ADMONISHING ONE ANOTHER . . . " (see Col. 3:16)
@sonship saidI’ve never been a member because I’ve never been in one of their churches.
Maybe you were never a member because you just can't get along with anybody else long enough.
@sonship saidIs this where the name-calling and capitalization begins?

@sonship saidNo, that’s not what I meant and you know it.

I’m asking you if you teach from the front, if you are an elder, an official leader in the church, a recognised authority on the word of God?
@sonship saidNo, this is what you replied
@divegeester
I answered your question.
Of course I am permitted to teach.
"You may all prophesy one by one that all may learn and all may be encouraged."
Individual congregational contribution to a meeting is not what I’m asking you, and you know it.
Are you a teaching elder in your church?
