What makes someone a Christian? Michael Horton, Bob Hiller, Walter Strickland, and Justin Holcomb show how the Nicene Creed draws a clear line between true faith and false gospels—then and now. From ancient heresies to modern distortions, the creed remains a vital confession that preserves the heart of Christianity: the triune God who saves. GET YOUR COPY OF "THE QUESTION OF CANON" Michael Kruger challenges the modern assumption that the Bible was chosen arbitrarily. With clarity and care, he explores the historical, theological, and cultural evidence that the canon wasn't imposed, but emerged within the early Christian community. https://solamedia.org/offers/questionofcanon/ FOLLOW US YouTube | Instagram | X/Twitter | Facebook | Newsletter WHO WE ARE Sola is home to White Horse Inn, Core Christianity, Modern Reformation, and Theo Global.

This episode is part 17 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.This episode covers Mosiah 15:1-9 and its clear teaching of modalism. These verses sound like something a Oneness Pentecostal might say.This episode explains the Trinity and how Oneness Pentecostalism differs with clips from Dr. David K. Bernard of the UPCI.Then, we compare what Oneness theology says with what Mosiah 15:1-9 claims about Jesus. Also, the Joseph Smith Translation changes Luke 10:22 to make Jesus say that the Father and the Son are the same person. (Note: I mistakenly said Matthew 11:27 in the audio, which is the parallel gospel account.)It seems undeniable that Joseph Smith was dabbling in modalism while writing the Book of Mormon.Sources Cited:"How Is Jesus Both God and Man? | Episode 36," David K.

Dr. French graduated with his Ph.D. from one of the leading European universities, the University of Birmingham in England, in December 2011. His Doctoral Thesis is the first of its kind, researching the foundations of the Oneness Movement at a major university under the supervision of well-known and well-published college administrator, educator, and author Dr. Allan Anderson, Director of the Graduate Institute at the University of Birmingham.The 140,000-word Thesis is entitled “Early Oneness Pentecostalism, G. T. Haywood, and the Interracial Pentecostal Assemblies of the World (1906-1931)” and uncovers a wealth of historical treasures and important bits of missing data regarding the early growth, development, and leadership of Oneness Pentecostalism. The core of the research documents the fascinating and important primary sources regarding Haywood's role in the interracial success of the early movement, especially the PAW, the forerunner organization of the UPCI. The Thesis demonstrates the trajectory of the emerging movement from inception to a movement of more than 30 million today.Dr. French has also earned degrees from and/or studied at the Apostolic Bible Institute (St. Paul), Crighton College (Memphis), Wheaton College and Wheaton College Graduate School, and the University of Indiana (Bloomington). In addition to the Ph.D., he holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Ancient Language (Greek), a Master of Arts degree in New Testament Theology, and a four-year degree in Pentecostal Studies. His earlier Master of Arts Thesis at Wheaton College Graduate School on the history of the Oneness Pentecostal movement gained national recognition when published in 1999 under the title Our God Is One: The Story of the Oneness Pentecostals. It is a landmark study, and now a best-seller, regarding the history and expansion of the Oneness movement into a worldwide phenomenon.After the publication of Our God Is One, he also developed for publication a laminated doctrinal booklet series, “Steadfast in the Apostles' Doctrine,” in a fold-out pamphlet format. The series includes two full-color titles, The Oneness and Jesus' Name Baptism.Talmadge and Rebecca French have been married for forty-five years and have three sons. Talmadge L. French began preaching ministry in 1976 and evangelized for four years. He served three years as an assistant pastor in West Memphis, Arkansas, with Rev. Bobby McCool, then went to the Chicago area to establish a new church in Wheaton, Illinois, beginning in 1983. He served for a time on the UPCI Illinois District Board.In 1994, he began commuting to Indianapolis as an Instructor of Bible, Theology, and Biblical Languages at Indiana Bible College of Calvary Tabernacle, Paul Mooney, President. In 2000, the French family moved to Indianapolis to become the full-time Dean of the Department of Biblical Studies, continuing as a full-time Instructor. In 2005, he became the Executive Vice President of Indiana Bible College, a position he held from 2005-2007.After leaving IBC in May 2007, he became Provost of the Apostolic School of Theology, Sacramento, California, and instructor of theology and biblical languages, developing extensive course work for online accredited Apostolic studies, including online courses in Greek and Hebrew. These courses, including Greek and Hebrew, Theology and Doctrine, Philosophy, Ethics, Evangelism, and more, are now being prepared for online availability through the Oneness Studies Institute.The Frenches moved to Durham, North Carolina, in 2009, serving as a minister with the First Pentecostal Church, after which, in 2010, they established their family in the Raleigh Temple of Pentecost to begin a temporary period of full-time itinerant ministry as they entered the final year of PhD studies with the University of Birmingham, UK, which was completed in 2011. Talmadge and Rebecca became the pastor here at Apostolic Tabernacle in July of 2011.

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank explains why we need to pray even though God already knows what we need.Hank also answers the following questions:Can you explain the idea of being absent from the body, present with the Lord? Brandon - Oakland, CA (3:21)Do you know anything about the Institute of Divine Metaphysical Research? Rick - Springfield, MO (6:48)I have a hard time trying to understand the Trinity. Why can't I get an understanding from a church? Rick - Springfield, MO (8:37)Why did God permit Samuel to come back and speak to Saul when he went to the medium of Endor? Richard - Braselton, GA (15:12)Is listening to an audio Bible the same as reading the Bible? Roy - Concordia, KS (17:06)Why did the Jews stop temple sacrifices if they did not accept Jesus as the ultimate sacrifice? Rebecca - Oklahoma City, OK (20:37)What is your opinion of the books and ministry of Rick Joyner and Benny Hinn? Umbaga - Raleigh, NC (22:16)What are the distinctions of the Apostolic Church, Pentecostal Holiness Church, and Oneness Pentecostalism? Myron - Leland, NC (24:03)

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (04/25/25), Hank answers the following questions:What happens after death? Keith - Las Vegas, NV (1:14)When believers die, they are in the presence of the Lord.

Jesus asked His disciples an important question in Matthew 16:15: “Who do you say I am?” Ligonier Ministries surveyed Americans in 2022 about how they perceived Jesus. Responses to three statements in particular are worth highlighting. First, 54% of Americans and 80% of American evangelicals strongly agreed with the statement, “There is one true God in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.” This statement summarizes the doctrine of the Trinity. But 40% of all Americans and 48% of evangelicals strongly agreed with the statement, “Jesus is the first and greatest being created by God.” This statement is a Christological heresy known as Arianism, not to mention an implicit rejection of the Trinity. Finally, 31% of all Americans and 29% of evangelicals strongly agreed with the statement, “Jesus was a great teacher, but he was not God.” How 80% of evangelicals can affirm the Trinity but 29% deny Jesus' deity is an unsolvable math problem. But it's a solvable problem for Christian discipleship. Churches need to do a better job of inculcating what the Bible teaches about who Jesus Christ is. Toward that end, I talk with Robert M. Bowman Jr. about a biblical case for Jesus' deity in this episode of the Influence Podcast. I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host. Robert M. Bowman Jr. is president of the Institute for Religious Research, which provides “evidence-oriented answers to criticisms of the Bible and alternative views of Jesus Christ advocated by skeptics and members of other religions.” He is author, with J. Ed Komoszewski, of The Incarnate Christ and His Critics, published by Kregel Academic.

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (04/04/25), Hank answers the following questions:Do all Pentecostals believe in the Oneness doctrine? Is Oneness a cult? Bobby - Wilmington, NC (0:56)If we no longer must keep the Sabbath, can you tell me why in the Book of Acts do we find Jesus' disciples keeping the Sabbath? Terry - Royal, IA (3:19)What is your view on the new heaven and new earth? Randy - Omaha, NE (5:33)Can you comment on Jesus' words about going and preparing a place for us? Randy - Omaha, NE (7:51)According to 2 Thessalonians 2:1, can Christ return at any time, or must He wait until the rise of Antichrist? Richard - Gaston, IN (15:11)Who are the two witnesses in Revelation 11? Are they actual people? Is this not referring to an actual event? Larry - Collierville, TN (19:09)

Send us a textWhat makes Christianity… Christianity? How do you spot a Christian? In this foundational episode, we explore the non-negotiables of our faith through the lens of the Nicene Creed - the ancient “guardrail” that has protected orthodox belief for nearly 2,000 years. We'll unpack: • Why the Nicene Creed matters today • How early church leaders defended core Christian truths • Ancient heresies and their modern counterparts • Tools for recognizing authentic Christian teaching From Arianism, Modalism, and Gnosticism to modern movements like Progressive Christianity and Oneness Pentecostalism, we'll examine how history's theological battles continue to shape our present conversations. Whether you're new to theology or a seasoned student of church history, this episode will equip you to understand and defend historic Christian faith. Join us for a journey through the foundational truths that have united believers across cultures and centuries. Learn why these ancient words still serve as our theological compass today.

Some critics argue that Oneness Pentecostalism is a modern religious concoction seasoned with a dash of ancient heresy. Dr. David K. Bernard refutes this claim by citing evidence of key Oneness Pentecostal doctrines both in the New Testament and throughout church history.If you enjoy this podcast, leave a five-star rating and a review on iTunes or your preferred podcast platform.

Have you ever caught yourself identifying more with your church group then with Christ? Did you experience an identity crisis after transitioning out of a high-control church or movement? In our final podcast episode of Not Ashamed Season #1, we dive into the topic of untangling group identity and learning to place our identity in Christ first and foremost. Our guest is Jonah McElhaney, author of There's No Such Thing As Dragons: Examining The Theology of The United Pentecostal Church. Jonah spent fourteen years in the UPCI and was involved in ministry for eleven of those years. It was only by studying Scripture and the grace of God that he came to see the error in many of their doctrines. He shares part of his testimony on this month's episode; you can find more in his book, as well as his blog. Also on the panel this month are Bethany, Andrew, and Natalie. Thank you for joining us as we rebuild theology in light of God's grace, love, and the true meaning of holiness!

Join Pastor Timothy Lee as he talks about what it means to behold God, shares with us practical ways of beholding God in our daily lives and leads us into experiencing the transformative power of God's glory.

This is the final spooky episode of Heresy Month 2023. Next week we will have a far less spooky episode (hint, hint). Until then, the guys are discussing more heresy. Oneness Pentecostalism (also known as Apostolic, Jesus' Name Pentecostalism, or the Jesus Only movement) is a non-trinitarian religious movement within the Protestantism, particularly within Pentecostalism.    Find us on: Email: doxologypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @doxologypodcast Instagram: @doxologypodcast Threads: @doxologypodcast

Have you ever been told that Oneness Pentecostalism (or a OP denomination) is currently one of the fastest growing church movements in the world? Were you led to believe that Catholics, Baptists, and other mainstream denominations are receiving the Acts 2:38 salvation plan and moving towards Oneness Pentecostalism? Did it feel like it wasn't adding up? In this month's episode, we listen to multiple clips from a sermon at the UPCI General Conference 2023 which made these claims. We go straight to the sources the minister cited and grapple with the glaring reality—the articles were about Trinitarian Pentecostal growth, not Oneness Pentecostal growth. In this discussion, we also look at the numbers for Pentecostal size and growth at large in comparison to Oneness Pentecostalism, breakdown the UPCI's statistics, contrast how Oneness and Trinitarian Pentecostals view each other in regards to salvation, explain their theological differences, and listen to Josh breakdown the history of their origin and split. So much is packed into this one episode, but if you're ready to dive into all things Pentecostal, this episode is for you! Sermons quoted in this episode: "Consumed by Zeal" by David K.

Have you ever found yourself conforming to a group rather than following the leading of the Spirit? Have you ever struggled with prioritizing pleasing people over pleasing God? How does one practice spiritual disciplines in a healthy way? In this month's episode, we'll be discussing all these questions and more, as we dive into our discussion regarding what it looks like to have a personal relationship with Christ. Our special guests for this month's panel discussion are Jennifer Brallier and Liz Johnson, joined by Bethany and Natalie. While their backgrounds are in different groups—Holiness Pentecostalism, Oneness Pentecostalism, and Independent Fundamental Baptist churches—they experienced many similar misunderstandings about who God is and what it looks like to walk with Him personally. Together, they share their stories of how God was faithful to lead them out of hyper-fundamentalism and into a better understanding of the gospel of grace. You can find Liz Johnson on Instagram at @lizforchrist You can find Jennifer Brallier on Instagram at @jenbrallier Jennifer Brallier will be sharing her testimony in person at the Called to Freedom conference, July 28-29, 2023.

On this episode of the AC podcast, Andy Steiger sat down with friend David Drysdale to discuss David's journey out of Oneness Pentecostalism. Given that David was pastoring a Oneness church, this was not an easy decision to make. There's a lot to learn from David's encounter with the fruit of truth and what fidelity to the truth can cost you.

The doctrine of the Trinity is widely accepted as what the Bible teaches about God. There is a competing view, however, called Oneness. This session explores the origins of the Trinity and Oneness, what they teach, and why the issue is important.  Oneness is also called Sabellianism, Modalism, or Oneness Pentecostalism. Oneness teaches that God is one person, not three, and God appeared in three modes or manifestations.  By contrast, the Trinity teaches God is three persons that are the one God. Which is correct?  What does the Bible teach? Support the show

Bethel church movement, Oneness Pentecostalism and the modern liberal church. We will delve into each of these, and look to see if in fact they count as Christian cults.

If you are just jumping into this conversation, I would encourage you to listen to the two previous episodes to hear the first 2 parts of the talk. For returning listeners, I do apologize for being a week and a half late in this but I believe you will enjoy all the same. The video of the full conversation will be on YouTube so keep an eye on our social media for that announcement. In this part of the conversation, Andrew and I talk about differing views of orthodoxy and heresy between Oneness and Trinitarian thought.If you're jumping in halfway through,welcome and let me clarify that here at the Apologetic Apostolic, we unwaveringly believe in the absolute numerical oneness of God, the essentiality of baptism in Jesus name, and reject the Trinity. I'll also repeat what my prayer is for this and the other parts of this conversation. If you're a Oneness Pentecostal listening to this podcast, I pray that it removes the false assumptions that surround your Trinitarian friends' beliefs and make for more productive conversations with your neighbors. If you're a Trinitarian listening to this podcast, I pray that you feel well represented and enjoy a peek into the world of Oneness Pentecostalism, and If you're not part of either of these camps and want to hear a great conversation, I hope that you enjoy two twenty something talking about theology, thai food, and cheeto hot dogs!

Welcome to part 2 of three where you get to continue to eavesdrop on a conversation between myself and Andrew Elliott. In this part of the conversation, Andrew and I talk about a few of the differences between oneness and Trinitarian thought as well as other views of the Godhead and salvation. If you're jumping in halfway through, let me clarify that here at the Apologetic Apostolic, we unwaveringly believe in the absolute numerical oneness of God and reject the Trinity. With that being said, if you're a Oneness Pentecostal listening to this podcast, I pray that it removes the false assumptions that surround your Trinitarian friends' beliefs and make for more productive conversations with your neighbors. If you're a Trinitarian listening to this podcast, I pray that you feel well represented and enjoy a peek into the world of Oneness Pentecostalism, and If you're not part of either of these camps and want to hear a great conversation, I hope that you enjoy two twenty something talking about theology.

Today's episode is the first of three episodes where you get to eavesdrop on a conversation between myself and Andrew Elliott. Andrew is going to give us the details of his journey from growing up as a Oneness Pentecostal into later adopting the Trinitarian view of the Godhead. Just to remind everyone where we stand on the Godhead here at the Apologetic Apostolic, we unwaveringly believe in the absolute numerical oneness of God and reject the Trinity. With our beliefs being so different you could expect a heated debate right? Well, yes but not in this series of episodes. If you're a Oneness Pentecostal listening to this podcast, I pray that it removes the false assumptions that surround your Trinitarian friends' beliefs and make for more productive conversations with your neighbors. If you're a Trinitarian listening to this podcast, I pray that you feel well represented and enjoy a peek into the world of Oneness Pentecostalism that Andrew outlines as being a former Oneness Pentecostal and myself as still being part of that world (in Ariel Tune). If you're not part of either of these camps and want to hear a great conversation, I hope that you get cozy and enjoy two guys talking about everything from theology, pizza, and dad jokes. Go show him some love on Instagram and TikTok @AndrewDoesApologetics.

Many aberrant religious movements which identify as Christian will twist the Gospel of grace making their followers partially responsible for saving themselves through legalistic, works-righteous doctrines and practices. If Jesus is not enough for salvation, if our salvation depends even in the slightest degree upon something we must do it is not finally the true Christian doctrine of justification by grace alone. As we will see again this week, such a concept of saving ourselves, even in part, is heretical. Our guest this week, theologian Dr. Edward Dalcour, shares with us more about the errors of modalism and works-righteousness doctrines and reminds us of the power of the Gospel in reaching the lost for Christ and His kingdom. Dr. Edward Dalcour is the president and director of Department of Christian Defense (Christiandefense.org), an educational and apologetic ministry based in Los Angeles, CA. He is Mentor of Theology at Greenwich School of Theology (London). He serves as Vice President of Grace Bible University based in Bagdad, FL. Dr. Dalcour holds a Master in Apologetics from Columbia Evangelical Seminary and a Ph.D. in Theology from North-West University (Potchefstroom, SA). He is a published author of several apologetic and theological books including A Definitive Look at Oneness Theology (https://uhop.me/Oneness). He is a prolific speaker, evangelist, apologist, and contributor to various theological journals. Related Links: Get the rest of the story including some of our most popular podcasts on Mormonism, access to some of our key LDS articles and our free, 4-page Watchman Fellowship Profile on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormonism): Watchman Fellowship 4-page Profile on United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI): watchman.org/UPCI Watchman Fellowship 4-page Profile on Oneness Pentecostalism: watchman.org/Oneness Additional ResourcesFREE: We are also offering a subscription to our 4-page bimonthly Profiles here: www.watchman.org/Free.PROFILE NOTEBOOK: Order the complete collection of Watchman Fellowship Profiles (over 600 pages -- from Astrology to Zen Buddhism) in either printed or PDF formats here: watchman.org/notebook.

Greg had Octavio Sanchez in studio this week. Octavio told his very interesting story of his journey out of Oneness Pentecostalism and into Reformed Theology. What a great episode. Enjoy! http://www.dmwpodcast.com Support the show

Continuing our discussion of Ephesians, we turn our attention to Godhead. There's some debate around this topic. There are two predominant lines of thought: oneness & trinity. We look at "one Lord, one faith, one baptism" through the eyes of Oneness Pentecostalism & trinitarianism. We'll also talk briefly about Jesus Name baptism, which is really at the core of the Godhead debate. Oneness Pentecostals baptize in the name of Jesus, but what is the biblical formula? What does it really mean to be baptized "in the name of Jesus"? --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jesusnamenews/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jesusnamenews/support

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank answers the following questions:Revelation 13:8 speaks of the Lamb's book of life; is there a passage that speaks of names being added to it at regeneration?Does the Foursquare Church, the Assemblies of God, and Oneness Pentecostalism all have the same four-step salvation plan?Who are the restrainer and the man of lawlessness in 2 Thessalonians chapter 2?Can you explain the seemingly contradictory accounts of the thieves who were crucified with Jesus?Is the flood account in Genesis depicting a global or local flood?

Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 Introduction 1. 0:42 How should I approach a friend who does not believe in objective truth? 2. 7:34 Do you think that Melchizedek was was a theophany? How does the writer of Hebrews know so much about him if there's only a few verses in the Hebrew Scriptures about him? 3. 14:44 The Bible says that Satan is the "god of this world" (2 Cor. 4:4), but I know that God is sovereign over all things. How do I reconcile these two truths in a biblical way? 4. 17:55 What are your thoughts on "Oneness Pentecostalism"? 5. 19:13 Is marriage a choice? I've heard that marriage is God's will for most people, but I like Paul's argument in 1 Cor. 7: 25-40. If someone desires singleness, could it go against God's will? 6. 22:20 In John 3 where Jesus says "you must be born again," it isn't like you chose to be born, you just were. Any thoughts on that? 7. 23:59 What are your thoughts on attending a wedding between a believer and an unbeliever? 8. 25:40 My church encourages kids to participate in communion. My 4 year old does not participate because we feel she's not ready. Not because of sin, but not fully understanding what she's doing. Any thoughts? 9. 27:01 In regard to our spirit, soul, body, mind, and heart, what does each biblically consist of, and what is their purpose? 10. 29:00 What are your thoughts on this prevalent kind of "repentance-free Christianity" where psychological goals (self-improvement/fulfillment) have replaced pursuing holiness? 11. 32:57 Does Revelation 3: 16 mean that lukewarm Christians will not be in Heaven? ("...because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spit you out of my mouth.") What does lukewarm mean? 12. 38:36 What happened to Jesus on the cross? What does it mean that He took God's wrath? Was it just pain and death like we deserved, or something more? Was it the equivalent of spending eternity in Hell? 13. 43:51 I got saved a couple of months ago! Any tips on studying the Bible? Where could I look to get background information on different books of the Bible before I begin studying them? 14. 45:39 Could you please explain why there are two demon possessed men in Matthew 8, but only one in Mark 5? 15. 49:01 How do you respond to teaching that says the verses that say homosexuality is wrong are actually about pedophilia, and not about same sex relationships? Do you have a video on this? 16. 51:20 What do you do if you can't live at peace with a family member at home? 17. 52:45 I like David Wood, but do you think his approach is biblical? It is effective, but isn't it too harsh? 18. 54:37 At Pentecost, they were mocked for appearing to be drunk. Does this suggest that we should expect laughing, shaking, or falling when closely sensing the Holy Spirit? 19. 59:12 My friend told me that their relationship with God and religion in general is something they keep private. Is this biblical? How should I respond?
