It's amazing how not 1 prophet or judge ever taught or spoke of a trinity. Not even God himself declared such. Not until 325AD

There was and is no "until "!

[@realmccoy124]

Hi Will, I enjoy reading your comments. You seem to be referring to the Council of Nicea... So, this Council occurred about the same time as your New Testament was being lovingly curated and vetted by the same folks who were at this particular Council. It does beg the question, why would the folks who vetted and tossed various Books and codexes in circulation among all the Churches... why would they come up with a doctrine so wrong as you and others constantly imply? The 326 AD Council you're mentioning - the results were concluded until later, as things were hashed out. The main product was the Nicene Creed.... which uses very, very exact wording... as they are combating heresies... and the goal was 'not to change' the teachings of the Church... but to solidify them. Until you actually read what the Nicene Creed says... and quit inserting what you and other folks say it says what it doesn't say... and do proper biblical exegesis with each and every verse used to formulate the Creed in its original form... and not the ones found in the West... I believe in One God the Father Almighty, maker of Heaven and Earth and Of things visible and invisible. And in One Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all ages; Light of Light, true God of True God, begotten not created, of One Essence with the Father through Whom all things were made...... And it goes on. The Creed was developed to combat heresies like Gnosticism, Arianism, Adoptionism... and so one. Many of the verses you use to support the Oneness doctrine... are the exact same used to develop the Creed. It's funny, if I am assuming correctly that you reject the Council that created the Creed... which is more than inconsequential words on a page... how can you be confident that the New Testament is complete and pure... that was curated and vetting by the same groups of people... who codified the Scriptures in a subsequent Council... Anyhow. Is Christianity just a mere book, like Islam is... because many of the arguments used to defend Scriptures only... sound rather similar to that we hear of the Koran. I think the Christian Faith is more than a book, a code of morals, etc... It is experiential - and sometimes we experience something in God we cannot put to words... it surpasses our intellect and reason... but our heart knows it is meet and just and write. Trust you're well, be encouraged. Lee.

@P Klemet so who created the doctrine of the trinity and who coined the term trinitas or trinity?

[@Post-Trib]

@Lee McCoy the council of Nicaea were men. Not men of God. They took the word trinitas or trinity and the doctrine, which was all started by a man, Tertullian. It's not the doctrine of God. Jesus never taught that he was one with a 3rd person. Apparently, he denied the doctrine

[@realmccoy124]

@@Post-Trib How do you determine what is a ‘Man of God’ versus ‘Man’… funny, of what I read of Tertullian, he seemed often times more aligned with the ‘oneness slant’ versus what you describe was the trinity. It’s been a hot minute - like when I was studying the licensing requirements within the District I was in about 30 years ago, I suppose. I am serious though - when I ask you - how can you trust the ‘men’, who are not ‘men of God’ by your estimation - who curated and vetted your New Testament Scriptures in subsequent Councils? Or was that just a miracle of God, that somehow, the scriptures you have printed today - and love - are ‘accurate’ and ‘God inspired’? Even the King James Version… had to go back to a source preserved throughout antiquity… Trinitas is Latin. The Ancient and Unbroken Church is not the same thing as the ‘Latin Church’…. It’s odd - having just celebrated Pascha - and hearing the all the Old Testament Scriptures readings in the Vesperal and Matins services… which are literally thousands upon thousands of verses… that pretty much read like the Protestant Bible….. I do believe that Christ-God is very apparent when he said of himself and God the Father - ‘He and the Father are One’… When Christ commanded his disciples to tarry in Jerusalem… and that he prayed unto the Father, that the Comfortor would be sent his name… to comfort us would would follow after Him … through the Apostles…. Well, I am just going to let the Scripture read as it is…. AND, I am really comfortable leaving the LOGOS alone - as it reads in John. Where Rome and her children tend to speak too much - trying to ‘explain’ God… and objectify God … right now, in this moment - we lessen God’s glory with our words…. I know I am good at permitting the Holy Spirit - the LORD and giver of life - who spake by the prophets - who proceeds from the Father - ‘explain’ Himself… The Law Came through Moses, but Truth and Grace comes by Jesus Christ. Really, though - how did your Bible come to be? I would love to hear your perspective. Also, if you are annoyed by me reaching out to you - just say so… by no means am I trying to be offensive. And, I’ll leave you alone. And I do mean it - I enjoy your posts because you are causing me to think. Trust you are well, my friend - Lee!

Matthew 28:19 and Acts 2:38 are two different verses that address different aspects of Christian belief and practice. Matthew 28:19 is known as the Great Commission, where Jesus commands his disciples to "go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost." This verse emphasizes the importance of evangelism and the spreading of the Christian faith to all people throughout the world. Acts 2:38 is a verse where Peter is speaking to a crowd after the Holy Ghost has come upon the believers on the day of Pentecost. Peter says, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." This verse emphasizes the importance of repentance and baptism for the forgiveness of sins and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost. In summary, while both verses mention baptism, Matthew 28:19 emphasizes the importance of evangelism and spreading the Christian faith, while Acts 2:38 emphasizes repentance and baptism for the forgiveness of sins and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost.

I love the truth of God’s word: He is God and amazing He is one God who is revealed in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. A person would have to be on drugs not to see the Trinity through scripture or they would have to hear the whisper of the devil whose number one tactic is to “twist” the scriptures. Scripture interprets scripture. A lot gets “supposed” or presupposed about Peter and Acts 2:38. It is simple to understand Peters perspective and revelation when you read everything Peter was revealed by God with. Just look at sweet little verses preluding vs 38, verses 32-33: “This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.” Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭32‬-‭33‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Now these verses are very clear about Peters revelation of the Trinity. Just think a moment, yes it may hurt to not just spout off repeated doctrine…but just try to think a moment, Peter says more about the Trinity than he does the rapture, which is not even mentioned in the Bible. But we know the rapture is biblical for Paul tells us about the catching away and etc. Just as we know that one God has been revealed in the New Testament as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit as 3 Persons. Again, you would have to be on drugs not to be able to read and interpret what Peter knew in verses 32-33 AND Matthew 28:19. Unless of course you twist it in twisted minds. Peter said this “same” Jesus, and He should know Jesus. Peter knew who Jesus was as revealed to by the Father as Jesus confirmed about Peter, that Jesus was deity, God in the flesh. Then Peter repeats what the Bible tells us in manny other places that Jesus went to heaven after He was finished here on earth and was seated at the right hand of the Father. It is not really a strain on the brain to count, 1, 2 Persons. Even the Old Testament alludes to what is revealed in the New about the Rapture, but not as much as. It reveals about the Trinity. First of all what is the purpose to say “there is but one God”, if there is actually 1 Person of the Godhead? Seriously I do not have to tell people I am one person, they can see that. But if I was not I may have to tell them. So simple. Not only did people worship many gods but they would have carried that same demonic nonsense over into the Godhead once Jesus gave further clarification in the New Testament. But more viable is what David said which Jesus Himself repeated when on earth. The “Lord said to my Lord”. A hint of the Trinity. Or just go to Genesis when God Himself said let “us” make man in “our” image. So simple you would have to be on drugs not to understand the “us” means more than one Persons. The angels did not create man and the angels are not the image of man or vice-verse. We are in the image of God. And we are a 3 part being, spirit, soul, and body on this earth and through eternity wherever we spend it. How amazing is that. So Peter said Jesus is seated not symbolically but physically seated at the Fathers right hand. Peter then says the Father gave to Jesus. You do not give to yourself and talk as if you’re two persons if you are one person, weird. But the Father gave to Jesus the promise of the Holy Spirit…boom, boom, now we have 3 Persons of the Godhead revealed to us as Peter refers to “them”. But of course Peter may be confused. The confusion is to try and figure out the truth with our puny brains alone, that God is one revealed to us in three Persons. Just as salvation cannot be understood with the brain alone. No, Peter is not confused, the oneness doctrine is confused and God is not the author of that confusion. So, Peter proves the Trinity as does so many other scriptures in their context. Now, I do not expect any real biblical arguments to what I said, al least not dealing with the scriptures I gave. If one scripture in its context is a lie, Jesus says the whole thing is a lie. I really do not believe Jesus to be a liar, so who is the liar? I know, blah, blah, blah….is the only argument against the truth of God’s word I just gave. So the insults of being of a certain denomination, or brainwashed, or blah, blah, blah is all the argument any oneness has ever presented to me as they SIDE SKIRT the truth and spiritual sense of the scriptures I give.

[@ThomasDickensheets]

This teaching of the Jesus Only / Oneness Pentecostals has been around for centuries, in one form or another, as modalism. Modalism teaches that God operated in different forms or modes at different times-sometimes as the Father, sometimes as the Son, and sometimes as the Holy Spirit. But passages like Matthew 3:16-17, where two or all three Persons of the Godhead are present, contradict the modalistic view. Modalism was condemned as heretical as early as the second century A.D. The early church strongly contended against the view that God is strictly a singular person who acted in different forms at different times. They argued from Scripture that the tri-unity of God is evident in that more than one Person of the Godhead is often seen simultaneously, and they often interact with one another (examples: Genesis 1:26; 3:22;11:7; Psalm 2:7; 104:30; 110:1; Matthew 28:19; John 14:16). Oneness Pentecostalism / Jesus Only doctrine is unbiblical.

So. Without a doubt, we all love Colossians 2:9... But, we need to clarify what was the Colossians Heresy... and why would Paul be so concerned for their salvation that he wrote to them? My understanding is that they were blending some Jewish ideas... coupled with some Oriental ideas - that weren't supplemental as they were thinking... they viewed what was delivered to them once... was primitive... so they held a belief that hierarchical angels were Supreme above Christ... and that some Jewish rites were prized above baptism into Christ... anyhow... part of this was Gnosticsim. With that framing our understanding - we can see why Paul was talking about fables, vain philosophies... etc... we don't have to go through multiple levels, etc... all we need is Jesus.. for in Him... we see the fulness of the Godhead - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, in bodily form.

Matthew 28:19 was changed by the Roman Catholics to include their pagan trinity. The oldest manuscripts of Matthew, that predate the catholics, only say "Go into all the world and make disciples of all nations". According to Clement in the Homilies of Clement, Peter taught that unless one is baptized in the name of Jesus, there is no remission of sin. And nobody in the Bible baptized in the pagan trinity. They baptized in Jesus name.

You only know manmade history and not your Bible. Quote false Religions all day for your text but I will stick with God's word. Jesus Himself repeatedly proclaim "what is called the Trinity" throughout His ministry as He talked with the Father and the Father twice publicly said He, Jesus, was His Son. Son with a capital S for He is God. You IGNORE scriptures: who WAS JESUS talking to HIMSELF????????????? Seriously how can people ignore truth like this? And if you say Jesus was NOT God in the flesh then you are Anti-Christ just like your doctrine is. God came in the flesh He was not flesh before He came, and the He is Jesus the Son as He talks with the Father all through the Gospels. Was JESUS crazy based on your doctrine talking to HIMSELF???? No Jesus was and is God and of a Perfect mind.

Acts 2:38. Peter {said} to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. And too, Acts 19: 1. It happened that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the upper country and came to Ephesus, and found some disciples. 2. He said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" And they {said} to him, "No, we have not even heard whether there is a Holy Spirit." 3. And he said, "Into what then were you baptized?" And they said, "Into John's baptism." 4. Paul said, "John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in Him who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus." 5. When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Again, no one in the Bible baptized in the name of the trinity. The catholics changed it.

What Peter said in Acts is in harmony with Jesus’ command found at Matthew 28:19 saying that God’s people would need to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins. They would give public evidence of such faith by being immersed in water in the name of Jesus Christ. In that way, they symbolize their personal dedication to God through Christ. Being baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit means: Recognizing the Father is natural since he is our Creator and Life-giver. No human can gain salvation without recognizing the role of Son in God’s purpose. (John 14:6) It’s also vital to recognize the role of God’s holy spirit because God uses his active force to give life, to inspire his message to humans, and to empower them to do his will. Although some believe that this enumeration supports the Trinity doctrine, the Bible never indicates that the three are equal in eternity, power, and position. That they are mentioned together in the same verse does not prove that they share divinity, eternity, and equality.

the word trinity is a pagan concept. Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭46‬-‭47‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “and said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.” These scriptures are similar to each other,it’s the same command given by Jesus Christ in Matthew 28 :19, where he said, go into all the world teaching them to observe all things, baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the Holy Spirit. The Terminology father son and Holy Ghost are titles , the name of God is Jesus and these titles are his manifestation’s . He is the Father as creator, the Son as regenerator, and the Holy Spirit as comforter. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭28‬:‭19‬-‭20‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” The assertion that this passage of scripture is talking about tree separate persons is synonymous with misunderstanding, as the concept finds its roots in Roman Catholic theology, prior to the ecclesiastical councils convened by the Roman Catholic Church for Biblical canonization. There was no mention of a Trinity until these councils. The term “Trinity” is a pagan concept retained by some Protestant Church, up to the present day. ‭The word 'trinity' appears nowhere in the Bible; the concept was finalized at the First Council of Nicaea in 325 CE after years of debate. Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.” ‭‭ The word all means everything, including baptism, as per the Bible, I like how the amplified Bible said it. ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬ ‭AMPC “And whatever you do [no matter what it is] in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus and in [dependence upon] His Person, giving praise to God the Father through Him.” ‭‭ we must be knowledgeable about what we believe because knowledge is power Hosea‬ ‭4‬:‭6‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” ‭‭

This was an interesting video - and caused me to examine things a bit more. I wrote a detailed response to it - but, I guess there’s a limit on what one can post in a comment. Anyhow, some of my observations in the dialog expressed by Dr. Bernard - 1. Nowhere in the Nicean Creed does it suggest a plurality of deities - so the notion that ‘Baptizing them in three different persons’ shows a misunderstanding of what is found in the Doctrine of the Trinity - and it would be sort of convoluted in my understanding trying to refute/support this Doctrine … in the Great Commission. 2. The Four Gospels are central to the Faith. In a Hierarchical View of Scripture - Gospel readings are emphasized and weighted more significant than that of the epistles and Acts. 3. Luke and Acts (which is traditionally attributed to him) - there are two versions of the Gospel and Book that were combined and circulated in the Early Churches. The Older version is shorter. The Longer version is Younger. The second version is what is found in most Bibles today, to include all of the editions to the KJV, and the other NKJV. Matthew was initially not written in the Koine. It comes in a little late… 4. Dr Bernard uses terminologies not found in Scripture… And speaks outside of the confines of Holy Scripture regarding the Incarnation - Logos… in John. 5. The Ancient and Unbroken Church sees clearly who the Logos is… and believes that ‘Salvation is Created when the Son of God - Becomes the Son of the Virgin’ - not only in John, but throughout the Old Testament. 6. We do not know all that was spoken by Jesus as instructional … whatsoever … is pretty ambiguous… So, did He expand on what is written in Deut. 6:9? The heresy of the Colossians was a mixture of Jewish and Oriental teachings that made Christ less than ‘Fully God’. Paul is refuting that false teaching. This correction is found clearly in the Nicean Creed. So - what is the expected outcome of ‘attacking’ the Synoptic Gospels… against Acts 2, 8 , 10, and 19… what are we hoping to achieve? The Great Commission is just that. Did McAlister really find something super clandestine in that brush arbor meeting in the 1920’s… or do we not have proper understanding and theology to see how the Church has taught and connected Matthew, Mark, and Luke - just before Christ departed.

Jesus told you how to baptize in Matthew 28 and you explain it away. The disciples did not disobey Jesus as unitarians or oneness do. They baptized as Jesus said but in the authority of what Jesus did and not how John the Baptist did prior. The early Jews only knew John's baptism so of course they are told to baptize in Jesus name or in the authority of Who Jesus is and what He did for us. And about what you call Trinitarians speaking in Tongues, you again need to read your Bible and trash Mr. Bernards false teachings in this area. You can only receive the gift of Tongues after receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit. And you cannot receive the baptism and tongues unless you are first born-again, saved. So it is BOGUS to suggest they do not have the fullness. Obviously speaking in Tongues is not the Holy Spirit and even after His baptism we have to daily submit and continue to pray in Tongues, it is not a BADGE of Christianity or salvation, it is a precious gift from Jesus to pray mysteries and such in the spirit realm. I agree many people need to accept more revelation and truth starting with the false doctrine of the unitarians or oneness.

It is a sin to disobey Jesus and He told us how to baptize in Matthew 28. The disciples in Acts were learning to baptize because of the authority of what Jeus had done and Who He was, instead of in John's baptism...so simple. The book of acts does not repeat the exact same words "in Jesus name" so it obviously was not a formula or words to say when baptizing OBVIOUSLY!

@waynejarvis370 that's your opinion. Which means according to your opinion, Peter got it wrong despite the tongues of fire 🔥 over their head and being under the tutelage of Jesus for 3 yrs and surrounded by apostles, Peter got it wrong. 👍 It's amazing how God, the apostles and prophets got it all wrong for thousands of years. But hang on because WayneJarvis is going to straighten God and his holy apostles and prophets out. 🙄🙄

@@waynejarvis370 Obviously? Please... try to find one scripture in any passage where the people were baptized in any other way but Jesus Christ, the Lord or Jesus. Never, not one time in any other way. There's one God and only one name. James 2:19

Agree with Oneness: the modalist, Muslims, the Black Hebrew Israelites, all agree with oneness that Matthew 28:19 was doctored! But again, the three mentioned do not believe Jesus is God, was God, and is the Son of God, the Lamb of God now on the throne next to God the Father. The scriptures are replete in evidence of the Trinity if you actually read it not trying to prove the doctrines of modalist, Muslims, the Black Hebrew Israelites and their comrades in theory the oneness. All the ancient original manuscripts that are not damaged and legible concerning Matthew 28:19, say the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, why? because Jesus meant it. Jesus said in scripture, you have up to this point not ask anything in my name, but now ask in my name and the Father will give it…If Jesus was the Father He would not have stated it that way. Jesus knew who He was even of oneness do not! Seriously it does not take a rocket scientist to see the truth, but even a rocket scientist with blinders on can be deceived in his so called expertise. The Apostles repeat over and over and over in there Epistles that the Father God, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one God but 3 persons. Matthew 3:16-17, 2 Corinthians 13:14, 1 Peter 1:2-3, just to name a few reveal the lie of oneness theories. Read the. Bible, that simple!

Wrong- NO one was ever baptized in the name of the "lord jesus christ" back in the apostles time !!! All those words and names are put forth by satan- the wicked one to deceive the people. 1).first of all the letter "J" was not even in the Hebrew OR Greek alphabets back then and still are NOT ! 2). The letter "J" was first used in 1528 by (Georgio Trissino, an Italian Renaissance man). SOME 1500 years after the Messiah was murdered. Then i ask- what were u to call the Messiah before than ? 3). The Messiah said he came in his father's name- are you saying the Heavenly Father's name was Jesus? Of course not- the Father's name is Yah, and therefore the Messiah's name was Yah, with the sub title (not his name tho) (so we could identify him) of Ha (means-" the" when translated into "English".....Mashiach (means "salvation" when translated into English) SO the Messiahs NAME is YAH- .....his TITLE is HA MASHIACH IN CONCLUSION- The Savior is called Yah HaMashiach !,,,never the name of jesus Please pray & fast for this mystery of our Messiahs real NAME....do it like your soul depended on it- because it does. REMEMBER ACTS 4:12,,,Peter was preaching to the Jewish masses in HEBREW when he said---"there is NO other name under the heavens given unto man whereby we must be saved" ...NO means NO ! (For those deceived folks who think it is OK to use a local language to interpret HIS rightful name into another language ie: English or Spanish etc. NOW that u have been enlightened- " come out from them & be ye holy". Will u use HIS wonderful & powerful & RIGHTFUL Name ? Thanks- P.

[@realmccoy124]

Hi Gabe… so, about the same time that Jesus was Incarnate.. there were other very popular figures using the title Ha MASHIACH, and were around after Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection from the Dead. There was never and still isn’t a singular expression of Judaism… nor a single language where all who would have heard Peter preached… not all who would have been in Jerusalem would have been proficient in Aramaic, etc… “since they were gathered from every corner of the world”… There were Jewish communities that only used Greek in their daily lives inside what is modern day Israel. The most common language at the time of the Early Church was Koine Greek - and it is presumed that Peter preached in a language that was understood by all the Jewish folks from around the world. I think your use of ‘no means no’ - actually detracts from what was expressed in Scripture… There is only one name, given under heaven and among men, whereby…. Not a ‘hebrew scholar here’ - but I am fairly certain - ‘Ha Mashiach’ means ‘the Messiah’… or in Greek - IC/XC … Christos … or Christ in English. Lots of Hebraic names have ‘YAH in them… and sometimes are written in the letter I… So, when I am reading from the Wisdom of Sirach… I know that his English translated name is ‘Jesus ben Sirach’. But, most folks here have not heard of this Book because it was removed from the Protestant Reformers. Thanks for sharing. Lee!

[@gabesen1451]

@realmccoy124 great points- but u r missing the MAIN point here- of course everyone can speak in their own language as they see fit- no problem....BUT when mentioning the MESSIAHS name- it must (Acts 4:12) be ONLY on that Hebrew name of YAH (HA MASHIACH) The Messiah said he came in his father's name which is YAH.....HA MASHIACH simple means the Messiah OR a person could say YAH the Messiah...(there is no other name.....) And of course satan seeing his downfall coming soon- brought in maybe false ministers- so of course they tried to mimic the Messiah as close as possible- the New Covenant says satan and his angels will be transfered into the angels of rightness....so we need to be very careful. Thanks for your comments Paul

Based on the following scripture this is anti-Christ teaching: “By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭4‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Mr. Bernard in his explaining away says that Jesus is flesh but not God. He says God fathered Him in the Virgin Mary. But suggest that Jesus was not God but ONLY human flesh and God the Spirit was with Jesus but that Jesus was not God. The anti-Christ spirit DENIES that Jesus was God who came in the flesh. The scripture above says they will deny that “Jesus has come in the flesh”. It says Jesus came, He was not born as deity in the flesh, Jesus was deity who put on flesh. Jesus “came”, He was not born accept into human flesh. You would have to be dogmatically taught by the UPCI doctrine and not study your Bible to not reject so many things Mr. Bernard explains away truth by “Using his so called knowledge of Greek and such”. Nowhere in the Bible does it say you have to have knowledge of Greek to have the revelation of the Holy Spirit of the written word. He goes on and on and on as if what he says is not directly refuted by scripture. If I was present talking to me personally he would not be allowed to promote this nonsense without scripture coming back against this deception. Jesus is God and was God from the beginning! SIMPLE!

[@realmccoy124]

Now, Wayne… thems fightin’ words. Haha! Oneness Pentecostals really have a hard time with supporting some of their doctrinal positions - especially, when one considers the LOGOS in John. To me, having walked with the UPCI for over 25 years… and 8 of which I was a ‘Closeted Trinitarian’ for fear of being labeled an apostate and thrown out of the church…. AND having been away from the Oneness Pentecostals ‘fronema’ - (Gr mindset) - I find it interesting coming back into these forums having been away now about 10 years and listening to what is being discussed… what is ignorantly ‘parrot-phrased’ … some of the things, I recognize immediately ‘as familiar’… same fussed up argument… different day… Other things, are new spins… but, not often - not much for original thought in discussions - I think. But, how I am hearing Dr. Bernard explain the ‘Flesh’… (Incarnation)… making the ‘Son’ likened to a disposable diaper that’s meant to be used, abused, and discarded… Is a completely new innovation in my ears - that wasn’t quite the normative of the UPCI, let’s say 40 years ago, with how I recollect the ‘Oneness of God’ being explained…. (Note, it was different ‘back in the day’ then… but this is a whole new level of ‘understanding of the Sonship’. Honestly, Dr. Bernard is respected by the UPCI and the folks beneath this organization structure. They are taught to ‘obey their pastor and submit to his authority’… and if you question anything being taught, or fail to comply to all their ‘holiness standars’… you are labeled as ‘walking in the spirit of rebellion.’ Most likely, whatever Dr. Bernard says, as the General Superintendent of the UPCI… is well received, without much critical examination…. Mind you, when I decided to privately and quietly leave the organization because I didn’t want to be a schismatic and harm folks… It took a long time to unpack things I was taught the Bible said… to find out if it really said what I was told it says…. Remember, if you don’t comply … you fry… I cannot fault the UPCIers for their love and zeal for God… but one thing I have long despised of their culture is to try and take Christ away from folks who didn’t get that special Gnoledge (playing here, Gnostic Knowledge)… as they have… Thanks for your perspective - and for helping me see things I am thinking I am seeing… from your lense as well… Be encouraged - Lee!

@@tto7365 Hi Big T again. The JWs lessen the deity of Christ Jesus as an angel. And without a doubt, Oneness Pentecostals believe that Jesus is Fully God - Lord knows all y’all have song ‘The Mighty God is Jesus, the Prince of Peace is He…’ for generations until the Hymnal ‘Sing Unto Him’ became uncool. What Wayne raises as concerning is how slippery sloppery folks in this Oneness Theology vein act when they are interpreting their unique doctrinal position in Scriptures. All this Roles and Manifestations… OT Covenant and NT Covenant… There are a lot of inconsistencies with understanding and application of Scriptures in the Oneness Camps… sometimes it seems like folks are guilty of Partialism… Even in this particular video, Dr. Bernard got trip up and was discussing things from a Trinitarian perspective - and switched it up. Without disputation, though some may and try to dispute it - folks are certainly guilty of Modalism. Part of what I am hearing lately in the past three weeks of videos - are things sounding very oriental… in this video - particularly of note - is absolute violation of Scripture and proper biblical exegesis. How Dr. Bernard speaks of the Incarnation, in my understanding, totally violates the LOGOS - in the Gospel of John. What’s peculiarly funny to me, is that folks in the Oneness camps - yimmer yammer with their stimmer stammer - about how these ‘evil theologians’ are oh-so-wrong with their theological positions and are soteriologically off base… AND with how folks wrongly interject and misrepresent what these ‘evil theologians’ say and believe. The Ancient and Unbroken Church clearly states that Jesus Christ was Fully God and Fully Man… not that he was just ‘Fully God’. Most Oneness Pentecostals - do not see the Son - before his Incarnation… But, I am sure, if someone did… they would most likely perform slippery sloppery explanations perform eisegesis, where they are guilty of inserting their world view and positions into the word of God - which is essentially - ‘adding to the word of God.’ Trust you are well - Lee!

@@Post-Trib God the Father is in me, a born-again Christian, but I am not the Father. What I said stands. It is "WEIRD" to suggest Jesus prayed to Himself? He referred to the Father in heaven over and over again, not that He was the Father or His spirit was the Father's Spirit. This is anti-Christ period. No where does Jesus say "HE was the FATHER God in heaven", nowhere! You twist "one" scripture most of us understand simply while you ignore many more that proves Jesus was not the Father in heaven. Just read the Bible! Jesus referred to His Father as another personality not as Himself. He was ridiculed by the religious fruits for saying He was equal with the Father, yet Jesus laid off His glory to come to earth to put on human flesh. Just like the "Jehovah Witness" you explain away the "simple" truth of John 1:1. Jesus was God, the Word was God, and was with God! How hard is that to understand in light of all scriptures, God was with God, but they are one God, the Trinity. The JW say Jesus was "god", small g created by God the Father, to become our savior. That is sick! You say Jesus was not God from the beginning as the Word who was with God too! Jesus did not complicate what He meant when He said "if you seen Me you have seen the Father". It is so simple when you have no presuppositions to prove. Jesus explained what He meant in the same chapter, Jesus did exactly what the Father said...if He was the Father's Spirit in Him then He was schizoid, which He IS NOT! No man had seen God the Father's face who is Spirit. But the Word, not the Father, put on flesh...simple! Yes it is an Anti-Christ spirit deceiving even well-meaning Christians. We both cannot be right, so I will go with the Scripture.

The amazing thing here is Bernard cannot explain the Oneness position by itself without speaking about the Trinity. Oneness should be able to stand on its own, but it cannot because they both believe in the incarnation…..the God/Man lie that was created by the Trinitarian councils.

Matthew 28:16-20 (KJV) 16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. 17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.
