    Best Podcast!
    The explanations Dr.Bernard give over what some see as very complicated issues make them easy to understand and he backs everything with scripture. Love this!
  • Riley Garcia
    I simply love this podcast.
    All of the questions of the next generations answered. In the age of information, young people have questions. The best way to make lifelong believers is to create believers who understand what they believe in. Thank you, DDKB! P.S. I would love to hear what Dr. Bernard thinks about Islam and how we can reconcile some of their beliefs with the Bible/historical evidence.

    Question???
    I do have a question that I would like answered, What does the word of God say about how we should dress, i know it says modesty but in todays culture what is considered modesty, like is it a sin if shorts and t-shirts are worn, because I’ve heard some say it’s a sin and we are only allowed to wear long sleeve shirts and men wear pants and women wear skirts?

    Absolute Gold
    I’m so thankful for this podcast and Brother DKB’s ministry. Every question is answered with a well articulated response in a very digestible manner. I’ve started reading his books which go way more in depth about these topics and I can say the same thing about those. Very clear and well researched responses to important topics we need to study in modern times. I’m highly grateful for these resources.

    Wisdom from a life of study
    Dr. David K Bernard is a remarkable man on many levels. The sheer volume of reading and studying this man has done to examine the Bible from all aspects and to bring the application and principles to our lives is unparalleled. Never judgmental, but firm in truth, he always goes back to what the Bible says and presents it in a clean, clear, concise manner.

    Practical teaching
    Dr. Bernard teaches Biblical truths in an easy-to-understand, loving manner that makes listening a pleasure. The short, to-the-point style is also excellent. I highly recommend this podcast!
  • M.G.24
    Amazing!
    This podcast has been so helpful! Bro. Bernard answers questions in such an easy to understand, conversational way. This podcast has helped me a lot since I started listening. I’m not sure if we can submit questions and if so how we do, so I’m just going to ask through this review… What does it mean if someone prays the “healing balm of Gilead” over you? I know what the healing balm of Gilead is in a literal sense, but what does it mean in the context of the spiritual world? If you have time to answer this question, I’d really appreciate it!

    Real Truth
    If you’re in search of biblical truth, these podcasts are where you’ll find it. Dr. Bernard has talked and walked the walk of faith, putting first in his life, his commitment to serving God. We are grateful for this teaching podcast.

    Relativism & Post Modernity
    David Bernard shows no real understanding of the philosophical topics of Relativism and Post Modernity. He conflates terms and concepts and then somehow makes it about atheistic Communism? Educate yourself instead of just spitting indoctrinated answers that you were trained to say. No one is a real Relativist if they truly understand the meaning. And Post Modernism doesn’t say there’s no truth. It posits that something can have multiple meanings or “truths” based on the same text.
  • Bro Guerrero
    Excellent teaching
    If you are looking for a solid answer for difficult questions, this is the best way to get them . Brother Bernard lays the word in a very unique way so we can understand. I highly recommended
  • jadebird
    One of my favorites
    I love listening to Brother Bernard. The way he explains different topics is easy to understand. He is very wise. This podcast has been a blessing!
  • Isaac Mullins
    I’m so grateful for brother Bernard!
    I was raised in a trinitarian church. God then began to deal with my heart on scripture showing the true oneness of God. I started listening to this podcast and many of the YouTube videos of brother Bernard and other upci ministers that helped me start seeing the truth. My one question is, how should we respond to slanderous comments such as “you deny the son”. I would absolutely love to hear brother Bernard speak on a subject like this!

    Thank you Bishop Bernard for taking time to provide this incredible resource to us! We are grateful to have you leading the UPCI!
  • Blazin Leb
    Thanks.😁
    Thank you so much for making this podcast happen! Great teaching and love hearing the word. When listening, be challenged, open minded, and loving. This podcast has helped clarify many things and is truly a blessing. I’ve shared it with my friends and have watched it bless them, I’ve sent out episodes to pastors who are struggling in a certain area, and I’ve given it to ministers who wanted to grow. Thank you for sharing God’s written word and letting God use your teaching ability.

    Educational and Thorough
    Dr. David K Bernard is so thorough in his answers and is able to answer in a way that makes it clear and easy to understand. Love his teachings. He really knows what he is talking about and is great at speaking the truth with love and confidence. I always look forward to new episodes every Monday!
  • Lowislayne
    Pagan Holidays
    Thank you for your speaking in the holidays. Can you speak on The current “revival” happening outside of the Pentecostal movement, in Kentucky. My nieces brother who is trinitarian seems to have experienced the Holy Ghost but denies oneness. I know God will pour out his spirit upon all flesh but that doesn’t mean a person is saved as they must be born again. Comment?

    Heresy
    Turn from your deceitful ways Dr. Bernard!
  • JaxLovesBen
    A great podcast
    Thank you for your insight into the Word of God from an Apostolic point of view! I have a few questions for this podcast. Why do apostolic not wear makeup and what is too far for beauty products/cosmetics? Will Christians lose their soul for doing such? Also, what do you have to say about the slight variations about the account of the resurrection in the Gospels? Also, how do you explain Satan being a snake in the garden, but also being the fallen angel Lucifer? Who are the “sons of God” (Nephilim) in Genesis 6:2? How come there has been people who live past the 120 year mark God created in Genesis 6? How are we to respond to other denominations who believe different things that contradict scriptural and Pentecostal fundamentals? Thank you.

    What the Church is Supposed to Be
    As a life-long Presbyterian, both mainline and Reformed, I highly recommend Dr. Barnard’s teachings. I left the OPC over eight years ago and I have never been more convinced that the Apostolic church is the church of the New Testament. Dr. Barnard answers questions in a simple, easy to understand style.

    Should Christians celebrate Halloween.
    David Bernard is brilliant! However, he speaks in a manner that we all can understand. I appreciate his leadership. He speaks with such wisdom as he brings forth God’s Word. You can learn SO much and have better understanding in his short Podcasts.
