Are the Disciples of Christ trinitarian?
score:4
Accepted answer
As I recall from my time (decades ago) as an ordained and licensed Disciple of Christ minister, anyone who had publicly professed that Jesus was their Savior and Lord was freely received--with no dogmatic strings attached--into fellowship with any Disciple's of Christ assembly.
What if they believed in the Trinity?
"Welcome! Come worship with us and feast at the Lord's Table!"
What if they did not believe in the Trinity?
"Welcome! Come worship with us and feast at the Lord's Table!"
Why? Because asking someone to confirm their personal believe in the Trinity was a "test of faith". Such tests aren't necessary to one's salvation.
In brief: not every Disciple of Christ is a Trinitarian, nor is every Trinitarian a "disciple" of Christ.
