Our Beliefs

Introduction

It is a pleasure to introduce you to the ministries of the PCG. Along with other churches, we share the task of presenting a high standard of morality and citizenship to our communities. We take our responsibilities as a church seriously, and pledge our continuing efforts toward teaching the Bible in its entirety throughout the world.

Our church presents a balanced ministry which serves in every area of life. Our Bible teaching ministry offers clear and inspired teaching for all ages. Our ministry includes special services for youth, evangelism/training for all ages and special programs for adults. We train youth for future leadership and involve homes in the task of building lives. We invite you to consider the ministries we offer, and to find if a local PCG church might offer you and your family or friends a place to serve God and to grow spiritually.

Beliefs

We believe that it is the express purpose of God, our Heavenly Father, to call out of the world a people who shall constitute the Body, the Church of Jesus Christ, built and established upon the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the Chief Cornerstone.

We further believe that members of the Body, the Church, are enjoined to assemble themselves together for worship, fellowship and instruction in the Word of God, the work of its ministry, and for the exercise of those spiritual gifts and offices provided for in the New Testament; and according to God’s Word, the early Christians came together in such fellowship as a representative Body of blood-washed and Spirit-filled believers, who cooperated with, and sent out, evangelists and missionaries and, under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, set over the churches, apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers, deacons and helpers.

Therefore, we recognize ourselves as a cooperative Fellowship of Christians, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace, till we all come in the unity of the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ (Ephesians 4:3-13).

Relationships

The PCG fellowship exists as 1200 churches in the United States as the Pentecostal Church of God. Our international headquarters, located in Bedford, Texas (a suburb of Dallas) at the hub of international ministries. We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and is man’s only safe and sure rule of conduct and faith. We believe every Christian has a responsibility to present the Bible to the world through a Christ-centered life, and our teaching ministries are founded on this principle. Our worship is evangelistic, Bible-centered and distinctly Pentecostal.

We present Jesus Christ as God’s answer to the problem of sin. We know God’s power is available to meet every need of mankind, and we preach and teach the entire Gospel with conviction and sincerity. You will find a rich variety in our services, for we consciously seek to follow Bible patterns in our worship. Jesus Christ is always presented as Lord and Master. The Holy Spirit is given freedom to order worship as He sees fit. We believe you will feel “at home” in our services.
