The Church of God International (CGI) traces its origins to the Church that Jesus founded in the early first century. Membership in the CGI consists of "called out ones" from around the world practicing Christianity as initiated by Jesus and furthered by the early apostles. The church begun by Jesus, the very one He promised would survive through the centuries, is alive and well. Today, disciples live the faith "once delivered to the saints" in this twenty-first century (Jude 3). They obey the same message taught by Jesus Christ, and they proclaim the same gospel taken to the world by the disciples. Members value the witness and teachings of Jesus Christ as the church's work.
The CGI home office is in Tyler, Texas. Incorporated in 1978, CGI has ministers and congregations scattered throughout the United States and Canada . We also have churches in Kenya, Jamaica, the Philippines, Australia, the United Kingdom and a growing number of countries around the world.

With relatable testimonies, engaging visuals, and practical exercises, the program offers tools to strengthen faith, maintain peace, and keep God’s kingdom first.
With growing interest in the so-called "lost books of the Bible," Mike James explores whether the Book of Jubilees should be considered Scripture. While some online claim it has biblical authority, this episode explains why most Christian traditions reject it. From contradictions with Genesis to additions to Sabbath laws, Jubilees diverges from the Bible in significant ways. Mike breaks down the historical context, Hellenistic influences, and theological errors to show why the Book of Jubilees does not belong in the biblical canon.

At the height of the protests of Israel's actions in Gaza, I noticed an interesting sight on the streets of New York. There seemed to be what looked like Orthodox Jews holding signs against the nation of Israel in the midst of other protesters who were holding Palestinian flags. I decided to look into this, and here is what I discovered.
Yes, believe it or not, there is a very small group (possibly numbering in the low thousands) of Orthodox Jews known as Neturei Karta (Aramaic term meaning "Guardians of the City") who oppose the creation of the modern state of Israel. The basis for their opposition to the nation of Israel is their belief that the Jewish exile must continue until the Messiah comes to return the exiles to their land.
