Bernt Berntsen (Chinese: 賁德新,[1] January 1, 1863 – October 16, 1933), also known as Brother B. Berntsen,[2] was a Norwegian-American Protestant Christian missionary to China. In 1904, Berntsen and his wife Magna were able to preach along with several other independent Norwegian missionaries in a mission station in Damingfu[3] of Zhili Province.[4] Influenced by the 1906 Azusa Street Revival, he later founded the Apostolic Faith Mission in China (later amalgamated with the Assemblies of God) with a group of American missionaries associated with the Pentecostal movement. His evangelism had a profound influence on the early co-workers of the True Jesus Church, namely Zhang Lingsheng and Paul Wei,[5] and he is regarded as one of the early missionary progenitors of Pentecostalism in China.[6]
