Please pray for my father Earl. He is in the ICU and having trouble breathing. He was diagnosed with covid a few weeks ago. He is not only my father but my best friend. I need as many to pray as possible. Thank you

Praying, in Jesus name

[@FoqiasTastyTraditions]

Praying in Jesus name 🙏

[@Dhjasjjs]

I’m praying lord Jesus let your will be done amen

[@wjdyr6261]

The blood of Christ was for atonement and remission of sins. That's why we invoke the name of Jesus in baptism and call on his name by faith in repentance

[@frances4309]

Thank you for this! The concept of "propitiation" has been elusive to me. Pinning it down succinctly, as you have done, is very helpful!

[@bretmavrick-ph2ip]

Another explaination, We do Not worship the flesh humanity of Jesus,,,we worship his deity,,,,my Lord and my God, ,,Jn,20:28🙏

[@bodiejones4844]

Annihilation makes sense in one way but not the other

[@TheMbudzeni]

Thank you for the blood of Jesus

[@kimmartin2522]

Thank you for not teaching we should pray the ungodly 'plead the blood'. It's tradition that's not biblical and it's not even in the Word. The disciples absolutely did NOT do it. ❤

[@nelsonstiveens5140]

Brother Bernard, is wrong say "God died" o "Maria was the mothuer of God? If Jesús is the Same God Incarnate, The God Men.

Can you do one on pornography. There are a lot of people who think they can watch porn and are still saved. I know its a touchy subject.

[@dreamarichards4972]

Amen! Very well explained. Thank you Jesus Christ for shedding your precious blood for our forgiveness of sin and for our Salivation. May God bless you Brother Bernard! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@tinacarr9498]

Why do we "plead the blood" ??? Where does this come from and what power does it hold biblically?

[@jeffvinson4875]

Revelation 12:10-11 is a good reference.

[@kimmartin2522]

There is none! It's not biblical and we should not do it. To plead means to beg and Jesus gave us his blood and we shouldn't be begging for it. How many times does he have to bleed for us, just once and that's it!!! Pleading the blood of Jesus isn't in the Word and the disciples didn't do it anywhere!

[@nelsonstiveens5140]

Brother Bernard. What is the finished work? What is the wesleyana theology of entire santificación? Why is it biblical or not? Why do Oneness Pentecostal oftfn embrace the finished work stance? Or how should we view this discusión and differences about santificacion?

[@jerryscott5545]

Excellent teaching Bishop!! Love it.❤

If you don't have a upc church near your home. Help start one and recruit a young upc pastor.and grow up togeather.

[@charlestiraco8634]

Jesus is not God. And he's certainly not one single being who is God. Just read the prayer in Acts 4:24-30 to understand that. Jesus says multiple times that he has a God (John 17:3, John 20:17, Revelation 3:12). Read Revelation 5... who is Jesus taking the book from? The one who sits on the throne, right? Who sits on the throne? Read Revelation 4:8-11. It actually makes less sense than the trinity (which are just inversions of each other, really). The churches are only showing you some of the scriptures to back up their false doctrine. They're Satan's churches. There's some truth in most churches... that's what can trick you.

[@kimmartin2522]

No

[@blehbluh1847]

1John 5:20 said Jesus was the ONE TRUE GOD

[@charlestiraco8634]

@blehbluh1847 That's not true. It's referring to the Father. Compare that text with John 17:1 & 3.

[@blehbluh1847]

@@charlestiraco8634 you misunderstood the meaning of sonship and the relation between the Son and the Father. It's not like the relationship of two different human beings. The Sonship is not eternal so was the Son. The Son has the beginning, a point where He started to exist, so will be ended when all the works which He should do as a Son! And there will be no more Son and sonship! And on that day, there will only be ONE GOD AND ONE NAME! Jude 4 also told us Jesus was the ONLY LORD! If you found and believe a God other than Jesus, then you are strayed away from the SHEMA, the most important of all scriptures!

[@charlestiraco8634]

@blehbluh1847 I didn't misunderstand anything. Jesus is a man no different from you or me who is the only BEGOTTEN son of God (unlike Adam according to Luke 3:38), and the Father is the one and only LORD God.

[@remedychef]

Don't you think it would be more intellectually honest to tell your viewing audience that your (false) UPCI interpretation testifies against the Blood of Jesus saving you unless you have a UPCI approved "Jesus Name Only" baptism?

[@jme_lewis]

That sentence makes zero sense.

[@remedychef]

​@@jme_lewis it would if you understood their exclusivist belief system.

[@jeffvinson4875]

Jesus Christ is the one who died for you and rose again from the dead in resurrection power… why wouldn’t you want to be baptized in His name? Baptism is for the remission of sins according to Acts 2:38 and other scriptures. Also refer to I John 5:7-8.

[@remedychef]

@@jeffvinson4875 You would be baptized in His name or in the authority of the Godhead but you wouldn't restrict God's saving grace to only those who were baptized in his English name or deny recognition of salvation to those who were baptized with a variation. Big difference.

[@jonathandbernard]

@remedychef You misunderstand the UPCI belief. We do not believe that one must be "baptized in his English name." We do believe baptism is essential, as Peter directed in Acts 2:38 and Acts 10, and as demonstrated by the consistent example of the Apostles. Similarly, the consistent practice of the Apostles was to baptize calling on the name of Jesus. Clearly, they would not have used the English version of his name, and even today UPCI churches in non-English speaking countries will baptize using the name of Jesus in their language, not English. And clearly the baptism doesn't have to be approved by the UPCI, as the UPCI is a relatively recently-formed organization. The Apostles were not UPCI. Rather the opposite, we hope to be like them, ultimately like Jesus. As far as excluding others from salvation, we do not desire to exclude anyone, but we cannot preach another gospel, we must preach what we find in scripture. Even Jesus was exclusionary when He said, "no one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6) Clearly there are other paths people can take, but they do not lead to God unless they go through Jesus. As a licensed UPCI minister I do not believe I personally have the authority to judge who will or will not be saved. That authority belongs to God alone. But I do have a duty to preach the plan of salvation revealed by God, recorded in scripture, taught to the Apostles by Jesus, and exemplified by the Apostles' practice. My answer to the question, "what should we do to be saved," is exactly the same as Peter's: repent, be baptized in the name of Jesus for the forgiveness of sin, and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. I believe this plan of salvation is available to anyone, at any time after the resurrection of Jesus, in any country. I hope the UPCI forever holds to apostolic doctrine, but membership in the UPCI does not guarantee salvation and is certainly not a requirement for salvation.
