I think the punchline that we agree on is that if you're going to be a Trinitarian you should become Catholic.

If you're going to be Protestant, then you need to be a Unitarian of some kind.

Welcome to the Council of Trent podcast.

Today my guest is Sam Tiedemann.

He hosts the YouTube channel Transfigured.

Transfigured, yes.

And he is a biblical Unitarian.

Correct. Correct.

So we're going to be talking today a little bit,

focusing primarily on the deity of Christ,

but also on an area where I think that we have common ground,

which is really interesting when it comes to issues related to development of doctrine.

That a lot of times when people watch religious debates between people who believe in scripture,

a lot of times those debates are between Protestant. debates between Protestants,

Protestants, like Calvinists and Armenians,

or Catholics and Protestants or Catholics and Orthodox,

but a lot of times, because I think many Protestants would not consider you a Protestant because you hold to what classically and credibly is a heretical Christology.

So I guess where do you see yourself among the Christian denominations?

Sure, I mean I think of myself as Christian and as broadly Protestant because I believe in sola scriptura and

unitarianism sort of gets its revival again we'll probably talk about the

early church period later but but Unitarian gets its revival in the

1500s right after Luther and in the early stages of the Reformation.
