I read the article, Darin. I find this a rather strange statement:
The third, that the distinct persons are each fully God, is denied by Arians like Jehovah’s Witnesses.
Yet, Arius himself stated in his letter to Eusebius that Jesus IS fully God. He wrote in part:
To these impieties [some teachings Arius regarded as heresy] we cannot even listen, even though the heretics threaten us with a thousand deaths. But what we say and think we both have taught and continue to teach, that the Son is not unbegotten, nor part of the unbegotten in any way, nor is he derived from any substance; but that by his own will and counsel he existed before times and ages, fully God, only-begotten, unchangeable.
In pointing this out, I am not implying that I agree with Arius. I do not agree that there was a time at which the Son did not exist, nor do I agree that the Son was begotten out of nothing.
The author of the article, in his categories, also indicates that "all things that came into being" is tantamount to "all created things". There is no direct scriptural evidence of this. I suppose the author thinks it is only logical and cannot be otherwise. However, I affirm that it IS otherwise. Jesus was begotten before all ages, as the second-century Christians affirmed, and yet was not created. We begat our children, but we did not create them. The ancient Christmas carol "Adeste Fideles" refers to the Son as "begotten not created." The original Nicene Creed affirms that the Son was "begotten before all ages":
We believe in one God the Father Almighty, Maker of all things visible and invisible;
And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, begotten of the Father before all ages, only begotten, that is, of the substance of the Father.
At the first Christmas (Christ's Mass), the early Catholic church celebrated three masses in honour of the three births of Christ:
1. His birth before all ages.
2. His birth from Mary.
3. His birth in the hearts of the faithful.
Jesus Himself said, "I emerged out of the Father and have come into the cosmos, and now I am leaving the cosmos and going to the Father." (John 16:27).
