![The Trinity Has 3 Major Problems — This Model Solves Them
Im joined by Dr. Beau Branson to discuss Monarchical Trinitarianism. He defends this view in the debate book on the Trinity linked below. Its titled, One God, Three Persons, Four Views. Branson defines monarchical models as affirming that (1) there are three divine persons and one God, (2) the Father is the sole “source without source” and (3) “God” is a referring term almost almost used to refer to the Father.
