ORU Looking our Way? Bernard to Present 4/9
David K. Bernard, the UPCI's new superintendent, will be presenting a session @ Oral Roberts University's "Empowered 21", on 4/9 @ 2 pm.
His topic is the "Future of Oneness Pentecostalism"
http://flipflashpages.uniflip.com/2/...pub/index.html (see page 6)
About Empowered:
Quote:
Empowered21 is an intergenerational conference joining individuals from all around the world that will be held on April 8th-10th, 2010 at the Oral Roberts University campus. In December of 2008, the Commission on Holy Spirit Empowerment in the 21st Century was formed bringing together Christian scholars, church leaders and next generation participants to converse about the current manifestations of the Holy Spirit throughout the world' cultures, church denominations and generations. In total, 15 conversations will take place in five different continents asking questions such as,
■“In what ways can the Holy Spirit be seen moving in your part of the world today?”
■ “What are the challenges and opportunities the church faces today and how should we be responding as spirit-empowered believers?”
■“How can we effectively communicate and pass on the torch to the next generation of spirit-filled believers?”
Empowered21 will include over 190 learning sessions, 24/7 intercessory prayer, practical outreach experiences, spiritual heritage tours, dynamic luncheon events, scholarly presentations, international dialogue, intimate worship coordinated by Integrity Music/Media, ministry from a variety of spirit-empowered speakers and life-changing General Sessions.
While acknowledging the historic roots of the Spirit-filled movement, this conference will not be so much about the past, but rather about focusing on the future. It is our desire that as we join hands from generation to generation, continent to continent that we will experience and discover the purity, passion and purpose of Spirit-empowered living. We believe that God is going to bring a supernatural convergence in Tulsa as the streams of the Spirit-filled movement unite to focus our hearts and minds on the future and we would like to welcome you to join us in this journey.

I fully expect DKB's notes to come from his chapter in The future of Pentecostalism in the United States By Eric Patterson, Edmund John Rybarczyk
http://books.google.com/books?id=ZOS...0david&f=false
I am curious how many will attend this split-session (one of 190) and whether it will be the springboard to the greatest end-time Apostlic revival, Bernard is predicting ...
as he shared in a recent Youth Division interview: " I believe we are entering the greatest time of apostolic revival the world has ever known." (source: http://insideout.pentecostalyouth.or...david-bernard/)
It also appears he will sit in on a panel discussion on the 10th with his trinitarian peers.
Other pressing questions for the impartation services is "Will the Holy Spirit show up among those that don't practice practical holiness as defined by Bernard?" and if they are Spirit-filled .... why haven't they been led to all truth?

Yes, Bro. Bernard sent his regrets to attend the JCM Reunion because he will be presenting his paper at ORU.

I think the old rule was as long as you didn't bring a bible and wear a tie at the pulpit and "testified" under 40 minutes .... you were within the parameters.

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Was he invited as a guest of honor?
I'd love to be a fly on the wall at the JCM Reunion since I hear that the WPF will be having a meeting in the same hotel on the same dates ....
I guess that works out well for TLC .... he can attend both meetings?
