- As we celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and the famous civil rights leader's efforts to promote racial equality, Dr. David K. Bernard discusses what the United Pentecostal Church International is doing to promote greater inclusion for believers of all races and ethnicities and to combat the sin of racism in the church.
In this episode, Dr. Bernard references the UPCI's Racial and Ethnic Affirmation and the Racial and Ethnic Affirmation Timeline. Both of these documents are available at upci.org/state....

I'll subscribe your UA-cam Channel Doctor David K. Bernard because you continue the works of Apostles and the will of God.
I know UPCI is teaching The Whole Gospel in the Bible. God abundantly bless this Son's and Daughters of God continue to do the works of God because our Lord Jesus Christ is coming soon. 🙏🏼💕
You have to continue to address this because there are still challenges… keep up the great work Dr Bernard.
What challenges would those be?
Such as?
It should disturb you that almost 24 hours later you can't tell us what even one "challenge" is... This is not biblical. Smh.
I for one will continue to pray that the church does not get sucked into this secular woke/marxist stuff. Then again, God always leaves a remnant.
Amen. Some brothers might not see this as a priority, but this is a very important priority for the UPC to thrive today. God bless you
Thank you Bro. Bernard!
I'm a black woman. Just based off the heading, I'm making the following comment: Please don't bring this woke nonsense into the Oneness church. *No one is excluded, so why would we need to work on "inclusion"???* My church is majority black (not a UPC church but we fellowship with UPC churches), and that is just the way our church racially shakes out. We're not excluding anyone _(including the disabled...we have wheelchair accommodations)._ We love everyone and only see our white, Hispanic, Asian, Indian, etc. brothers and sisters in Christ as simply fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.
I think the church should address wokeness, which is Marxism in disguise.
Ty mama
Thank you.
Amen! Amen! Amen!!!
Your comment is ridiculous and shows you watch Newsmax too much. It is important for Bishop Bernard to prioritize diversity, Equity, and inclusion in the church. The Apostle Paul spoke about the importance of racial diversity in the body of Christ Im 1 Corinthians 12.
I dont think when he mentioned woke, he was saying the UPCI is woke.
He was simply stating that we’re racially inclusive, even moreso than the “woke” community claims to be.
The gospel doesn’t need political programs. If He be lifted up, he will draw all men to him. And, yes, I attend a UPCI church. Apostolic Restoration Church West Monroe La.
He is lifted up in the UPC/UPCI
@@theunsettled5683 yes, He is. But not with political correctness. By repentance, baptism in Jesus name,
the baptism of
the Holy Ghost, daily prayer, studying the Word of God, fasting, loving him with all soul/heart/ strength, and loving your neighbor as yourself.
Did I miss anything?
Experienced really bad racist exclusion will never step foot again in this denomination ever again in my life…
Why is it that there are hundreds of miles and hours of drive time between upc churches.most cities have only one upc church.
Growing up, I had both positive and negative racial experiences with the UPCI.
Thank you Dr.Bernard for doing such important work- even if this work isn’t popular.
964,000 population in Austin texas only two upc churches. Need's 964 new upc churches with 1000 members each.
Christian is based in the bible. Bible doctrine, Christian are things in common not in material Thing. One baptism one Body one God one Lord one Spirit
I'm your brother in spirit and belief Apostle and Doctor David K. Bernard I'm apostolic believer and was baptized in Jesus Christ name (Acts 2:38) please pray for me because I was made this big problems and sins to our Savior Lord Jesus Christ, and I have made wickedness to my neighbors and they file me some cases an Act of Lasciviousness please for me that this problem of mine Apostle and Doctor David K. Bernard will be solve i need Lord Jesus Christ miracles now to solve this case and I'll turn back to him as my Heavenly Father and do his will this I promise to the whole brethrens please pray for me my brethrens in Christ I really need his help. 😭😭❤️🙏🏼
The world in its waits of spiritual changes. Amen
i'm over it I don't think there's really a answer that can answer this topic and I'm really not gonna focus on it ever again because it's just not something. I'm really worried about as a black man. I feel like I am justified on my own merit and I'm focused on Jesus Christ is being the main focus in his kingdom so if anybody is really really reallyhurt or focusing on this being the main purpose of their life, I feel really really to tell you this, and that word of advice is grow up
and yes, I am a part of the UPC and I go to a United Pentecostal church and I love my church. I don't care if I'm the only black person in the church which I'm not there's a good number maybe about four of us, but I'm not focused on that I'm I'm focused on God's kingdom and him coming back and reaching souls in the last day that is what I'm focused onso please whoever is bringing this woke ideology into the church. Please stop. It has nothing to do with the color of your skin, wake up.
im gonna be honest as a black man in christ im moving away from this topic it didnt answer anyrhing for me but I love yall God belss 12:52
Amen 🤝
This subject has been addressed numerous times. This seems a bit much.
Yet it’s still a problem.
@@erickorellana9642 ummmm, no
There's only one race of mankind and that's the human race. If it takes persecution and affliction to bring the body together, then so be it
God continues blessings his missions with people of good heart's
Amen
Amen
