It really reveals that modern Christendom - including much of modern oneness Pentecostalism - is a non Biblical non-monotheistic religious movement. Even those who claim to be staunch monotheists reveal their claim is not entirely true, because in PRACTICE they have one God in the old testament with a people and a religion, and ANOTHER God in the new testament with a ANOTHER people and ANOTHER religion.
God is ONE. His Plan has been the same from Genesis to Revelation. Jesus did not come to undo everything God did before, scrapping it all, and starting afresh with some wholly new thing, going in a wholly new direction. Yet, that is what modern Christendom believes. It's no different than the gnostics who claimed the God of the old testament was the demiurge and Jesus came to undo everything Jehovah had done.
Might as well completely tear out 3/4ths of the Bible because it is now irrelevent except for flannelgraph lessons for Sunday School children's entertainment.

I don't think you truly understand what Oneness Pentecostalism believes if what you are describing is what you think they believe.
Oneness Pentecostalism in general, including most minister in the UPCI, don't believe in dispensationalism, but don't believe in the total replacement theology
either.
