Should Apostolics Read the Apocrypha?
Show Notes

Some Christian groups, including the Roman Catholic Church, have accepted as canonical or semi-canonical several Jewish writings dating from about 200 BC to 30 BC (and one from about AD 100). These writings are commonly called the Apocrypha. Fourteen such writings even appeared in the original edition of the King James Version. So why isn't the Apocrypha included in most modern Bibles?

Dr. David K. Bernard offers a brief overview of the Apocrypha and explains why neither the early church nor modern Oneness Pentecostals view these writings as divinely inspired.
