References about 25 times the early Church wrote on the deity of Christ and about 20 times the Trinitarian reading of Matthew 28:19 was used before 330 A.D.

Mathematical Accuracy and Scientific Precision J. Juedes
A quiz tract asking readers to choose Wierwille's claim or the accurate position on five topics: what "thoroughly" means, what "the Son of God" means, whether snow fell in Tulsa in Dec. 1951, the quality of VPW's education, VPW's plagiarism of Stiles. One underlying issue is the reliability of Wierwille's words.
