In describing the baptism of Jesus, Matthew wrote, “When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, 'This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased'" (Matthew 3:16-17, NKJV).

Some have pointed to this passage and the other Gospel accounts of the baptism of Jesus as proof that the Godhead is comprised of three separate persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. In this episode, Dr. David K. Bernard shows how these passages confirm a Oneness Pentecostal view of Jesus Christ as God manifested in the flesh (1 Timothy 3:16).

    Gotta love how Trinitarians call Jesus the second person within the Godhead, which completely ignores Colossians 2:9's statement that it was the complete other way around - the Godhead in it's entirety was in Jesus!

    Thank you Bishop Bernard, Here’s a fact folks, Baptism didn’t begin with John the Baptist. It was the Mikveh of the Priests. Jesus being the High Priest. Hebrews 2:17, 3:1, 4:14, 5:10, 6:20 Here’s a little more info. Jesus said in Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. Jesus told John the Baptist in Matthew 3:15 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. Jesus as the High Priest Needed to go through the Mikveh to be cleansed. He is GOD manifest in the flesh. 1 Timothy 3:16 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. 1 GOD, 3 manifestations, not 3 persons. There is the Humanity Of Jesus and the Deity Jesus. Fully GOD, fully man. Match up Isaiah 9:6 and Matthew 28:19….. Then look at Acts 2:38.
