Basic Information
The Pentecostal Church of God (PCG) is a predominantly white Pentecostal Christian denomination. The Pentecostal Church of God was formed in Chicago, Illinois, in 1919. It was formed by a group of Pentecostal ministers who had chosen not to affiliate with the Assemblies of God (org. 1914), dissenting with the Assemblies' stricter doctrine against divorce and remarriage. It was first called the Pentecostal Assemblies of America, then Pentecostal Church of God of America was adopted in 1922, and the present name was formed by dropping "of America" in 1979. John C. Sinclair served as the first moderator. The Pentecostal Church of God should not be confused with the The Pentecostal Church of God (Detroit), which is a non-trinitarian Pentecostal denomination based in Detroit, Michigan.
Beliefs of the PCG include the Bible as the inspired word of God; God in three persons; the fall of man; salvation through the death of Jesus on the cross, received by grace through faith; the possibility of apostasy; Baptism of the Holy Ghost and fire, accompanied by speaking in other tongues; water baptism by immersion for believers (with the Trinitarian formula); the Lord's supper (with unfermented grape juice); foot washing at the discretion of local congregations; distinct calls for ministry accompanied with divine evidence; tithing for the support of the ministry; Divine healing provided in the atonement; and the imminent pre-tribulational, premillennial return of Jesus Christ.
International headquarters are located in Joplin, Missouri, where a college and a publishing house are operated. There are 1200 congregations in the United States fellowshipping as the Pentecostal Church of God. Over 5,200 churches have been established outside the United States. There are over 500,000 members in 52 different countries. 60 churches and missions exist among the American Indians. The church is headed by the General Bishop (previously the General Superintendent) who was the Rev. Charles Mosier until his death on July 8, 2006. It is divided into a number of districts, including four Hispanic districts in the United States. Each district is served by a District Bishop (previously District Superintendent). A general convention meets biennially. District conventions meet annually. The Pentecostal Church of God is a member of the National Association of Evangelicals, the Pentecostal World Conference and the Pentecostal/Charismatic Churches of North America. The church's official publication is The Pentecostal Messenger.
