Story

Leading Commandment Church of God, Incorporated


(Its Identity Revealed)

The Leading Commandment Church of God, Incorporated is an Independent, Seventh-Day, Pentecostal, Apostolic Church.

Independent, because it is not a member of any established ecclesiastical organization.

Seventh-Day, because its members observe and keep holy the biblically required Seventh-Day Sabbath from sundown on Friday until sundown on Saturday. They also observe and keep the scripturally outlined Feast/Holy Days. (Matthew 19:17)

Pentecostal, because its members receive the Bible mandated Gift of the Holy Ghost evidenced by speaking in tongues.
(Acts 2:4)

Apostolic, because its members follow the teachings of the 12 Apostles who learned directly from Jesus Christ that true believers must observe and keep the Seventh-Day Sabbath, they must be baptized in water in Jesus’ Name, and they must be recipients of the Gift of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. (Acts 2:38)

Following the salvation experience, a consistent Christian Lifestyle must be practiced daily. (Philippians 1:27)
