Church of God



The Church of God is a name that many unrelated Christian bodies use and are mostly descended from Pentecostal/Holiness or Adventist roots.

They claim many members, worshiping in about 900 congregations in almost 100 nations and territories. Because the churches are unrelated there are no accurate estimates of practitioners.

The churches claim that after many years of apostasy and compromise, God is again restoring His church in this end-time. This is a divine move of the Holy Ghost, as ordained by God and prophesied of in Revelation and other scriptures.

God is again calling all of His true children out of every sect and schism back to the one fold, the precious Church of God. The glory of God is in our midst, unity prevails, and young and old are finding help for their souls. The Bride is now making herself ready for the soon return of her Lord and Savior.
