Karl Barth and Oneness Pentecostals | Episode 173
What do a notable Swiss Reformed theologian from the mid-twentieth century and Oneness Pentecostals have in common? More than you might think. Dr. David K. Bernard reviews what Karl Barth had to say about the nature of the Godhead and the plan of salvation, and Barth's significance for Oneness Pentecostal theology.

What Will Hell Be Like? | Episode 172
Переглядів 5 тис.День тому
The Bible offers descriptions of Hell that seem contradictory at first glance. For instance, Jesus described Hell both as a place of "outer darkness" (Matthew 8:12, 22:13, 25:30) and as a "furnace of fire" (Matthew 13:42, 50). Dr. David K. Bernard considers these scriptural descriptions and what they tell us about the place we call Hell. If you enjoyed this video, keep in touch with Dr. Bernard...

people who use ""Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God." leave out the part right after which says "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." Jesus literally clarified it right after which water baptism people leave out. baptism from the holy spirit is the only way which is from faith and grace. jesus talked about human birth because fallen angels wont get saved and he was speaking to Nicodemus at passover
You forgot to mention that western society has also made distinctions between men’s and women’s pants. They look different, feel different, and fit on the female body different. When a man wears pants designed for women, it is very apparent
I love these short videos so much because they’re basically exercises in building strawmen arguments and knocking them down lol
I love the framing that Trinitarian doctrine is the odd man out within Christian believers.
Amen!
Really enjoy this podcast ❤❤
Thanks for the insight. I will definitely use these principles in my Bible studies.
Amen!! 🙏🏻
Baptized with the holy ghost and 🔥 fire a new creature
The trinity is a pagan lie taught by the pagan roman empire that teaches to worship the image of YHWH. Colossians 1:15, Paul reminds us that YAHUSHUA is “the image of the invisible CREATOR.” You worship images of YHWH and call the image YHWH Romans 1:22 and 23 (22) Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools (23) and exchanged the glory of the immortal YHWH for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles. The Messiah is a man approved by YHWH. Yahushua is his name. Meaning YHWH SAVES. He taught his followers to pray to YHWH and to worship YHWH and he declared YHWH his one true ELOHIM. If you worship the image of YHWH then you are against YHWH. You have no way to HIM, you reject HIS word. We bow to the messiah who fulfills the will of YHWH. We worship YHWH who created heaven and earth. 1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one Elohim, and one mediator between Elohim and men, the man Yahushua the Messiah Matthew 22:37 - Yahushua said unto him, "Thou shalt love YHWH thy Elohim with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 - This is the first and great commandment." Deuteronomy 6 6:4 Hear, O Israel: YHWH is our Elohim, YHWH is one: 6:5 And thou shalt love YHWH thy Elohim with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. IF YOU REJECT THIS TRUTH YOU ARE NOT WORTHY TO RECEIVE IT Peter said YAHUSHUA was, “a man approved of YHWH” (Acts 2:22 KJV), elevates him to his rightful position. He is the only begotten Son of YHWH, who loved so much that he lived a sinless, obedient life and died on the cross for us, whom YHWH raised from the dead and who now stands at YHWH’s right hand as YHWH’s second in command, administering the things of YHWH. Yahushua achieved behavioral perfection by continually choosing to subject his will to YHWH, his father, all the way to his last breath on the Cross (1 Cor. 15:45; Heb. 5:7). YHWH alone is most high, The messiah worshiped YHWH, taught everyone to pray to YHWH, YHWH alone knows the day of judgement because HE is 1 not 3, YHWH cannot die, YHWH cannot be a man who dies , the messiah did not pre exist as a 3rd person in heaven. the messiah never went BACK to heaven when he ascended to heaven, the messiah was created at the conception and was fully human in the same way ADAM was fully human. That is why he is the last Adam and never YHWH in the flesh. The image of YHWH cannot be YHWH. Thou shall not worship images of YHWH. Only YHWH is immortal . HIS WILL BE DONE, HE ALONE is eternal. We live in HIM , we are redeemed through the man who is given authority to judge the living and the dead. YHWH reveals HIMSELF through general revelation, natural revelation, special revelation and the law of conscience THERE IS NO TRIUNE YHWH, YHWH is one , not 3. You worship the image of YHWH , you reject the anointed MAN approved by YHWH who was mortal and not YHWH in the flesh. YHWH is spirit, not flesh. The spirit of YHWH is the power of YHWH. The son of YHWH is a man made by YHWH. YHWH cannot die or be a man who dies. THE MESSIAH is the image of the invisible YHWH, he worshiped YHWH and prayed to YHWH and followed the will of YHWH. YHWH is our ELOHIM ALMIGHTY and says do not worship any other elohim (MIGHTY ONE) The messiah is the last ADAM, the seed of the woman who redeems MAN. The plan of YHWH is not a 3rd person of YHWH. The messiah did not pre exist before his conception. Only YHWH is immortal . HIS WILL BE DONE, HE ALONE is eternal. We live in HIM , we are redeemed through the man who is given authority to judge the living and the dead.

Perfect example of the plain reason of the text being ignored. Jesus couldn’t be clearer here. If you’re rich, you won’t make it into heaven. But the American Christian needs to negotiate with that text to allow themselves to accumulate wealth. So you have to bend and flex the text to its absolute breaking point so you can feel ok about yourself.
I studied David's writings in the late 80s. His books brought me great peace when I was guarding the west in the Army, in Germany. I miss his writings, got to regain his books when I get enough money. My books were lost in the shipping coming back to America....I had all his great writings....
He has ebooks also soft copy of his books
Can prophesy be interpretation of tongues ?
Interpretation of tongues is a separate gift, per 1 Corinthians 12:10. (Podcast Production Team)
BECAUSE OF LACK OF KNOWLEDGE, THE TRUE CHURCH IS CALLED CHURCH OF CHRIST WHICH IS ALSO CALLED THE BODY OF CHRIST, THE CHURCH WHICH IS NOT USING MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.
If More believers knew just how deep the Jesuits are in everything they would run to Christ so fast cus everything He said was right
At 6.00 minutes we all agree it is bringing it all around to Christ. Stop there no need for argument……. ( but ) here is where it all goes wrong the oneness point of view now Denies the trinity point of view of father son and Holy Ghost. There is the problem the denial of someone who believes in the father son and Holy Ghost. And saying that there baptism is not right. But if they under stood there is no contradiction in scripture Jesus said baptize in the name of father son and Holy Ghost. Peter said Jesus name. There is no difference but when you deny peoples baptism there is the problem.
You are not restoring anything and there is no “formula” for baptism unless you’re turning baptism into a magick ritual 🤦🏽♂️
Thank you
Do you believe in baptism as required in being completely born again?
He's referring to Acts 2:38....Being Baptized in the "name" of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. A lot of churches are Baptizing people in the "name" of The Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and according to scripture, this is incorrect. We "must" apply the "name" of Jesus Christ! Acts 4:12 speaks this is as well. I hope this helps
@@ratedjay7 thank you for sharing this. Yes I believe this, I was curious as to what @trellusg believed according to baptism.
@@ratedjay7 I grew up in the UPC - Bro. Bernard was just a pastor in Austin back then, but had already written some books - I know exactly what he’s talking about. There is no “formula” - there is no scriptural evidence that a person BAPTIZING “in the name of Jesus” was himself saying anything - after all, Ananias in Acts 22 doesn’t tell Paul, “be baptized, making sure the baptizer calls on the name of Jesus,” but rather he tells Saul/Paul to be baptized, “calling on the name of the Lord.” It is the convert being baptized who calls on the name of the Lord to be saved (Acts 2:21, Romans 10:13). The baptism “in the name of Jesus” is not so because of a “formula” spoken by someone baptizing, but because the person being baptized is identifying with Jesus and is thus being baptized in his name.
A common trope used against those who hold a Oneness position is that adherents believe the uni-personal YHWH essentially wears a different “mask” to represent each revelation throughout scripture. In other words, when YHWH wants to be the Father, He wears the Father mask, when it’s time to be the Son, it’s the Son mask, or the Spirit mask and so on. Like I said, it’s a trope meant to demean the position. But it’s interesting to note that the opposite seems true for the trinitarian position. Rather than the uni-personal divine person YHWH peering through the eyes of His various masks, it’s any one of the three divine persons peering through a single YHWH mask. So, apparently any given reference to YHWH throughout scripture could actually be any one of the three divine persons, it just depends on the setting or context or, and most importantly, the effort to shore up the doctrine of the preexistent Son . If I’m wrong about this, someone please explain.
Love Love absolutely love the simple Truth!! Praise God !!! I "once" was blind BUT... NOW I SEE !!! THANK YOU JESUS FOR REMOVING THE SCALES FROM MY EYES!!! HALLELUJAH 🙏🏾
the problem isnt formulas ...in time invested in the formula with the wrong leadership.
Please clarify your statement I don’t understand it
The original "formula" is rightly stated & exemplified in the NT. God is an absolute numerical one and Jesus is his name. Water baptism in the name of Jesus is part of salvation and it's for the remission of sins
@@wjdyr6261 there is not a “formula” at all - there is no scriptural evidence of baptizers saying anything at all, much less something specifically. It’s the convert who calls on the name of the Lord.
@@trellusg🤦🤦🤦
@@trellusg it's both, IMO. Either the one being baptized or the one baptizing can call on Jesus. The end
Amen ❤
Thank you, Bro Bernard for your excellent presentation. I have, in the past, read segments of Karl Barth's works with some respect, but your presentation was so well expressed.
En Español por favor
¿Hermano Bernard que quiere decir que la iglesia es universal y que también es local?
John 3:12.13 “If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?” “And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.”
Who is the God that Jesus said to worship ? This is Jesus' COMMAND .. MATTHEW 22:37-39 "You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind. This is the greatest and first commandment .." - DNKJB; NW. Will you obey Jesus commandment ? (It's not a suggestion) It's a direct command from Christ Jesus and it's not up for debate. ALL genuine Christians are required to OBEY it.

Marin Luther adopted the dispensational error that there is one plan of salvatiin for jews( Acts 2:38) and another for the gentiles(Rom.10:9,10). This was partially due to the fact that he was antisemetic and beieved that Acts 2:38 was a works based plan of salvaton. As Dr, Bernard has stressed that saving faith must be demonstrated by obedience to Acts 2:38. Lastly, all of Pauls' books begin with the greeting,"..to the saints of.." So they were all written to already saved believers saved, no doubt,, according to Acts 2:38.
Short but loaded
I have experience Miracles upon Miracles in the last four years. I was with a friend, who was totally distress at his wife leaving him for another man. I prayed snd prYed for this man. one distressing day he came to speK to me. whilst on my balcony, (I lived adjacent to a golf course) a while ball was coming at speed towards him. As it came closer, we noticed ot was a bird, a white bird. My friend did not move an inch. The bird opened its wings, flapping them 3 times in his face, the turned and sat on balcony wall. Iy then flew to a near tree, then came back looking at my friend. My heart was over joyed. Sadly he did not get his wife back, but found love in another.
Being well versed in the original Koine Greek of the new testament ,Dr Bernard i woud like to ask you a question. Can the Greek word for " tongues", in Acts and 1Corinthians, be singular and plural depending on how it is applied ?
Bro.Bernard full support.
The reason many are saying that this is the greatest oneness debates is because it is one of the few to where the ones defender was outmatching the trinitarian. Gene Cook was an easy defeat. Watch the others and you see the oneness position crumble.
Another explaination, We do Not worship the flesh humanity of Jesus,,,we worship his deity,,,,my Lord and my God, ,,Jn,20:28🙏
There’s a world of difference between what Barth is saying and what you all are saying. Barth is not saying that the God of Israel takes the form of the Son, the Father, and the Spirit. All He is saying is that the “Son of God” can be a stand in for all the other members of the Trinity, not ontologically but in representation.
I really appreciated this video. I have a significant amount of theological education. I'm familiar with Barth. I was raised trinitarian Pentecostal but in the last year and a half I've been in a UPCI church. This discussion was very helpful.
I met a guy at an optometry appointment and after praying for healing and seeing it manifest I told him, "I can see that you have the spirit of Christ in you, have you ever received the baptism of the Holy Spirit speaking in tongues?" He said, "No." I asked, "Would you like to?" He said, "Yes." I took his hands and said, "Receive the Holy Spirit." I then started to speak in tongues and within about 15 seconds he was speaking in tongues. It was amazing!
I can at least say, I believe a child that was lost in a miscarriage should be in heaven. The Bible says to enter heaven, we need to be born again, but if you weren’t born at all, you don’t have a chance to be born again therefore, I would say that child will be with Jesus in paradise.
I didn’t really intend to listen to this video, but I’m glad that I did. I am curious how those who hold to the oneness view reconcile it with those who hold to the Trinitarian view with regard to the transfiguration, as well as the baptism of Jesus, when the Holy Spirit was represented in the form of the dove and God the father‘s voice was heard.
See Episode 8 "Is the Baptism of Jesus Evidence for the Trinity?" (ua-cam.com/video/CU0P3awcikw/v-deo.html) - Podcast Production Team
@justin Does God have the power to cause His voice to be heard from above? God is Spirit and His Spirit is Holy. Is His Spirit a Dove?
Tremendously interesting discussion, I have always shunned any of the Theologians from the Reformed Church as they were usually critical of Biblical Theology and the Bible itself. This has opened my eyes to a wider field of information. Thank you.
My brother in Christ... do you know there isn't a single scripture where Jesus explicitly states that he is God? But there is John 8:40 where Jesus says to the Pharisees, "yet you seek to kill ME, A MAN who has told you the truth that I have heard FROM GOD."?
There are but you just dont want to believe them the reason why i will not state them... charlestiraco8634
I think that most Christians are Oneness but don't realize it. Once the trinity vs Oneness is explained, most would agree with the latter. People are just so afraid of being labeled a "heretic". We are so blessed by Dr. Bernard's scholarism.
I agree
It's only divisive when they try to explain their differences on paper.
James White said if you ask people coming out of the Church, (being trinitarian of course) to explain the trinity, they would explain oneness.
I do not fully agree with this argument. For most Trinitarians, the Lord Jesus, at least it seems, is somewhat lesser than God, the Father. On the contrary, to my understanding, Jesus being the Father, God Himself is the core of the Oneness teachings. No one has ever held a three-person god belief during the era of the New Testament, even apostle Paul Himself - it would be utterly ridiculous for a devout pharisee to obey someone lesser than God or demigods alike. The Trinity doctrine is even the root cause of much evil throughout the human history.
Coming out of the belief in the Trinity 39 years ago makes me greatful daily for coming out of the many errors of its false teachings. Simple: Jesus is the express image of the invisible God. Jesus ... Jehovah has become our salvation.
Hello my brother in Christ. You should know that according to Revelation 4:2-3 that the same "invisible" God is still sitting on the throne in heaven. He never left. That's not Jesus sitting on that throne, because we get a full description of Jesus in Revelation 1:13-16. If you continue to read chapters 4 and 5, there's no possible way that it's Jesus being called the Lord God Almighty because he's not the one sitting on the throne. Don't get me wrong please... I don't believe Jesus is God at all. The Bible teaches that Jesus is a man who is the son of God.
Please make one on William Branham and His connection and disconnection to UPCI
William Branham was a horrible teacher and a false prophet who still deceives many
All Trinitarians believe Jesus is God. If you want to honestly and intellectually criticize Trinitarians show Barth saying that Jesus is the father incarnate. We are not Arians. We don't believe in subordination.
Why do we need Barth to show you. It’s in the Bible, The Son clearly says the Father dwelleth in him and that he speaks and does the works.
My brother in Christ, how do you not believe in subordination? Read 1 Corinthians 15:24-28. If you want to see Jesus's true nature read just the few scriptures before those, 20-23. Jesus isn't God. God is his God... John 20:17.
The teaching of the trinity teaches subordination. I heard when I was in the trinitarian churches. Jesus is God , but he is not the Father, the Father is God , but He is not the Son, and the Holy Spirit is God, but He is not the Father or the Son is another teaching. And yes it changes from church to church. Not very well thought out. One God The Greek word Kai is translated as and, it is John 17:11 in the Greek text. I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one. Jesus = YHVH Even or that is. The word And does not mean another person. Matt 28:19 says NAME singular which is Jesus. All you have to do is read through acts and notice when they mentioned baptism. Jesus is considered the Lamb of God, the King of Kings, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the High Priest. And you believe that, but you don’t believe that One God can be all of that and more. Isaiah 44:6-8 KJVS [6] Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. [7] And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto them. [8] Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it ? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any. Revelation 1:7-8 KJVS [7] Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. [8] I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. There can’t be two first and last. Isaiah 9:6 KJVS [6] For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Why is Jesus called / Identified as the Mighty God, and the everlasting Father? 1 Timothy 3:16 KJVS [16] And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. God put on flesh, and became as a man. Colossians 2:8-9 KJVS [8] Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. [9] For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. Jude 1:25 KJVS [25] To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen. All that God is resides in the Body of Jesus. Acts 20:28 (NKJV) 28 Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood. God is Spirit. How does a Spirit have blood? There is no remission of sin without the shedding of blood. So God produced a human body to be sacrificed for the payment of sin for all. Well over 300 times the singular pronoun is used when speaking of God. The Greek Τριάδα is translated trinity. Not once is it used by the Apostles, nor of the OT writers. The OT is clear that ONE God was taught, then after the Apostles died He changed His mind? Mark 12:29 KJVS And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: Zechariah 12:10 (KJV) 10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon ME whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. Who was pierced? Zechariah 14:9 (NKJV) 9 And the LORD shall be King over all the earth. In that day it shall be- “The LORD is one,” And His name one. John 20:26-28 (KJV) 26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you. 27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. 28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. John 14:21 KJVS He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. The ONE GOD comes by revelation as you seek to Know Him instead of your own understanding. Mark 12:32 KJVS And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he: Notice the pronoun He not them. Jewish religion only taught strict monotheism. Trinity is not monotheism.
You are criticized by some because many trinitarians have different explanations. Some without realizing explain oneness.
Matthew 28:19 Is in the "Name" singular not "Names" plural.= "Jesus" The Disciples "Never" Baptized in Trinity.
Well. With that argument - the Apostles NEVER baptized in Oneness either…
Luke 20:4 “The Baptism of John, was it from Heaven, or of men?”
When Jesus baptized more people than John the Forerunner - what was that like, I wonder? John’s baptism was unto repentance… did Jesus baptize folks until repentance too?
I would like to see some of the “oneness” Trinitarians have an open debate with Dr. Bernard or any others, or heck even an open discussion about this. Maybe like a Dr. Michael Brown, especially since he is charismatic and see how close him and Bernard agree with each other.
It is so funny you say this bc I am a big fan of Dr. Michael Brown and want him to do an interview with Dr. Bernard. I don't know how to communicate this to them, though.
@@MissMonotheist me too! I always watch and keep up with Dr.Brown. It’s crazy he does line up with us so much tbh. Heck, he made a whole video called “God is not more than one person” lol
Dont forget Jesus said we are all sons of God. I think the seed that God used to impregnate Mary was from the same dna that God used to make Adam. Adam was a perfect creature before sin before dna mutations. Remember Jesus taught us to pray "Our Father" . Jesus never authorized any writtings about himself after he left earth so we must judge all those writtings cautiously knowing that Jesus warned us that many woukd come in his name but are wolves.
