Joined by the Marion, Iowa church in 1863, the Michigan church began to extend its influence into the eastern and central United States through\u00a0<em>The Hope of Israel<\/em>. This publication created interest in the Church\u2019s distinctive doctrines: the authority of the Bible alone for Christian faith and practice, the second advent of Christ, and observance of the seventh-day Sabbath.<\/p>\n<p>Through these means, the General Conference of the Church of God (Seventh Day) was organized in 1884 and incorporated in Missouri in 1899. Its offices were located in Stanberry, Missouri, until 1950, when they were transferred to Denver, Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years,\u00a0<em>The Hope of Israel<\/em>\u00a0moved from Michigan to Iowa, then to Missouri, and eventually to Colorado. After several name changes, it is now known as the\u00a0<em>Bible Advocate<\/em>. After more than 150 years, this flagship publication of the Church continues to be published, now six issues per year. It also appears online at\u00a0<em>baonline.org<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h3>. . . And Our Present<\/h3>\n<p>The General Conference is made up of approximately 235 local congregations throughout the United States and Canada. Affiliated conferences and churches in 40 countries have a worldwide fellowship of more than 150,000 members. Each national church is considered autonomous and regarded as a sister conference. Fellowship, dialogue, evangelism, and doctrinal unity among the worldwide membership are coordinated through the Church\u2019s International Ministerial Congress.<\/p>\n<h3>Our Beliefs<\/h3>\n<p>As a church, we believe that<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jesus Christ is the Head of the church, in charge of nurturing His spiritual body, which consists of all believers. Apart from the divine Son of God, we look to no human being, living or dead, as the church\u2019s founder, ruler, prophet, apostle, or spiritual director.<\/li>\n<li>The Holy Bible is divinely inspired, preserved, and transmitted. As God\u2019s Word, it clearly illuminates the way of Jesus Christ and ever remains the only standard for Christian faith and practice. We recognize no other writing as an infallible interpretation or supplement to Holy Scripture.<\/li>\n<li>Salvation is a gift of God\u2019s grace and comes to us solely by our faith in Jesus, the Savior. Saving faith, however, is more than mental assent; it involves active trust and repentance from sin. We believe that Christians, out of gratitude, will evidence saving faith by a lifestyle that conforms to God\u2019s commandments, including the seventh-day Sabbath that we observe as a tangible expression of our faith and rest in God as our Creator and Redeemer. We invite penitent seekers to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, be baptized in His name, and live according to His will. To this end we conduct open worship services and Bible studies that glorify God, teach His Word, and strengthen Christian faith.<\/li>\n<li>The second coming of Christ is imminent. We look forward to the climax of world history when Christ will establish His kingdom on earth, fulfilling all God has promised. We also believe in the resurrection of the dead, the judgment of all persons, the destruction of the wicked, and the reward of the saints who will live forever in the presence of God.<\/li>\n<li>Doctrinal beliefs are established through Bible study and under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Consequently, our beliefs do not constitute a closed creed. We encourage growth in scriptural knowledge, understanding, and wisdom throughout the Church.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Our Fellowship<\/h3>\n<p>As servants of Christ, we practice . . .<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>local church attendance that provides weekly opportunity for warm fellowship with other members, which holds the potential for long and lasting friendships within the body of Christ;<\/li>\n<li>worship, preaching, and Bible study to strengthen the Church in living for Christ;<\/li>\n<li>wholesome social and recreational activities, with emphasis on the family;<\/li>\n<li>educational instruction for children and youth;<\/li>\n<li>national and international association through conventions, district events, and summer youth camps;<\/li>\n<li>financial stewardship on a personal level;<\/li>\n<li>the ministry of the Church through the exercise of each member\u2019s spiritual gifts and talents.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Our Collective Work<\/h3>\n<p>The greatest ministry of the Church is performed by members serving others in Christ\u2019s name while scattered within their workplaces, schools, markets, and communities. To assist the members and congregations in accomplishing this mission, the General Conference coordinates the following ministries:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Bible Advocate Press produces and distributes a wide range of literature, including the\u00a0<em>Bible Advocate<\/em>\u00a0magazine (<em>Abogado de la Biblia<\/em>in Spanish), Bible study lessons for most ages, tracts and booklets on various topics, a church hymnal, and a church newsletter. Many of these publications are provided in both English and Spanish. The magazine and much literature are available online at\u00a0<em>cog7.org<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>baonline.org<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Artios Christian College is an online Bible and ministry training arm. Through Spanish and English language programs, Artios is training the current and coming generation of leaders and workers in the Church. More information is available at\u00a0<em>artioscollege.org<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>G. C. Missions assists in establishing and maintaining sister churches and missions outside North America. It provides literature, training, and salary subsidy for workers in many foreign countries and assists with the construction of church buildings, schools, and medical clinics.<\/li>\n<li>Spring Vale Academy is a boarding high school near Owosso, Michigan, considered a parachurch ministry alongside the General Conference.<\/li>\n<li>Services provided by the districts of the General Conference include youth ministry, young adult ministry (SWORD \u2014 Sharing the Word and Offering a Real Difference), women\u2019s ministries, and men\u2019s ministries.<\/li>\n<li>The North American Ministerial Council is an association of ordained ministers of the Church in the United States and Canada. It is responsible for studying and formulating the Church\u2019s official doctrines and for maintaining standards, qualifications, and a code of ethics for the Church\u2019s professional ministry.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Our Overarching Vision<\/h3>\n<p>Believing that the Church\u2019s best ministry opportunities are yet future, the leadership of the General Conference has outlined a ten-point vision statement \u2014 divided into two sets of five \u2014 that describes the vibrant 21st century church we strive to become:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>The Harmony of Grace and Truth:<br \/>\nOur Identity in Christ<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Christ Centered<\/strong><br \/>\nChrist is our reason and foundation<br \/>\nfor everything we are and do.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Spirit Formed<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Holy Spirit calls us, draws us,<br \/>\nand transforms us.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Bible Based<\/strong><br \/>\nGod reveals Himself and His good will for us<br \/>\nthrough His divine Word, the Bible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Sabbath Celebrating<\/strong><br \/>\nWe celebrate the seventh-day Sabbath as our rest in Christ and in remembrance that we are His creation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Distinct Yet Inclusive<\/strong><br \/>\nWe find our identity in being in Christ, not in being different from other Christians.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>The Great Commands and Commission:<br \/>\nOur Obedience to Christ<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Passionate in Worship<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Compassionate in Service<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Engaging in Witness<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>United in Fellowship<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Committed to Discipleship<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These vision points describe a church on the way, a dream in progress. May you be inspired to become part of this effort, and may one of our local congregations truly become a place you can call home.<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fpublications.cog7engage.net%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fpages%2F394%3Fsimply_static_page%3D18950\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:48px;height:48px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" style=\"display: inline;width:48px;height:48px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/publications.cog7engage.net\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/addons\/extra-icons\/image\/social\/clearslate\/96x96\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpublications.cog7engage.net%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fpages%2F394%3Fsimply_static_page%3D18950&#038;text=Hey%20check%20this%20out\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:48px;height:48px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" style=\"display: inline;width:48px;height:48px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/publications.cog7engage.net\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/addons\/extra-icons\/image\/social\/clearslate\/96x96\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-mail nolightbox\" data-provider=\"mail\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share by email\" href=\"mailto:?subject=Introducing%20the%20Church%20of%20God%20%28Seventh%20Day%29&#038;body=Hey%20check%20this%20out:%20https%3A%2F%2Fpublications.cog7engage.net%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fpages%2F394%3Fsimply_static_page%3D18950\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:48px;height:48px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"mail\" title=\"Share by email\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" style=\"display: inline;width:48px;height:48px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/publications.cog7engage.net\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/addons\/extra-icons\/image\/social\/clearslate\/96x96\/mail.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Beginning . . .
