Uh, and finally, I also want to mention that from what I read of Dr. Andy's book, I think the conclusion is, and he can correct me on this, that, yes, in essence, we believe that... we, we believe in a god, but the nature and the modality of this god is, uh, significantly different, um, because of the Trinity, the doctrine of the Trinity, and because of who Jesus is.
