First it is not just flawed it is in complete error with no amount of truth to it. It is inferior not equal to all other attempts to discuss the Trinity. God is three distinct persons and yet is one God. How does that work? We do not know exactly but modalism denies three distinct person. Therefore it is a non starter

I actually respect the classic Pentecostal response the most. They admit it is in violation to scripture, they just do it anyway. I am close friends wit and will admit, have even preached in the pulpit of a woman Pentecostal pastor. She has told me several times that she knows what the scripture says. She knows she is wrong, but she "feels called." My answer always is "I ain't your judge. I personally will side with scripture. What you do is between you and God." -

Ordered Ellis's book. Got it yesterday. Haven't started reading. I don't agree with his position, but want to be aware of what his apologetic is.
All my life growing up I knew people who practiced sprinkling or pouring for (in place of) baptism. None (that I was aware of) ever bothered to defend it scripturally -- just took the position mode didn't matter. Then several years ago I ran across a tract on baptism from the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite, which made a scriptural argument for/defense of pouring as the proper mode of baptism. I don't agree and wasn't convinced, but it was intriguing to see someone actually defend the position they practiced. This is kind of how I feel about what you've said about Earle Ellis's book. -
