Church of God: Community of God's People
We are a group of believers who bonded ourselves together in the Philadelphian spirit of Revelation 3:7-8 (on the first day of the Sacred Year in 2016). We are striving to pursue more and purer biblical truths, following the lead of God's Spirit. Our mission is to proclaim the gospel (good news) of the soon-coming Kingdom of God while growing in wisdom, godliness, and love. While based in Davao City, Philippines, we aim to feed and care for as many of God’s called-out ones everywhere in the world through the internet.
What is the "Church of God"?
The Church (Greek: “ekklesia“) of God is composed of people called out of this world by God the Father through the Holy Spirit. They are spiritually given to Christ for His safe-keeping (John 6:44, 65). In this life, they are granted — and are led and sanctified by — God’s Holy Spirit (Romans 8:9-11). They maintain that connection by keeping God’s commandments (1 John 3:24). As a result of the free gift of their calling, they are expected to do good works (Ephesians 2:10) and preserve the truths of God in their lives (1 Timothy 3:15b). As a collective body, members try to participate in proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom of God in all the world (within their individual capabilities), and support the teaching of obedience to all of God’s commandments, which may result in the baptism of those being called to salvation now (Matthew 24:14; 28:19, 20). We believe that the Church of God: Community of God's People is part of that great Spiritual Body so described.

Origin of our Beliefs
Due to the many obvious similarities, we identify our roots and origins back to the one true Church of God imbued with God’s Holy Spirit, and founded by Jesus Christ (Yahshua the Messiah) through His original apostles. Through the enlightenment of the same Holy Spirit of God, we follow the same teachings, doctrines, and practices established then.
