COCG Core Values:
1. Follow Jesus Christ: The Warrior Prince who is the Living God Incarnate (John 14:6; 1:1-14)
2. Teach Early Church Preterism: The Full Gospel of the Kingdom including the '7 Lost Truths' (Mark 1:14-15, John 5:25-29)
3. Believe That True Christianity Transforms: The human race, one soul at a time, into the brightness of the Kingdom (Col 1:11-14); even out of the darkness of this world's “illusion” of light (2 Cor 11:14).
4. Practice Christian Family: The Base for Administering God's Church and Kingdom (Matt 19:4-6)
This week we continue our Daily Scripture Reading by finishing up Romans chapter 2, then continuing on from there. Join us as we learn more about the teaching of our Lord through the Apostle Paul.

In a nutshell, The Pearl weaves the full gospel story of the present Kingdom of Jesus Christ into the first three chapters of Genesis, bringing out the simple beauty of the creation account along the way.
The Pharisees of Jesus’ day were given up by God for destruction and judgment. We need to separate from their influence in each and every generation.
“Thou hast put all thing in subjection under His feet!” This means all things! Learn what it means, “but now WE SEE not yet all things put under Him.”
The Great Commission–Fulfilled! Learn more of this teaching in the Daily Scripture Reading Online Audio Bible, where you will see that the Apostles, Paul along with the other twelve, were given the Great Commission by our Lord in Matthew 28:18-20. And, according to Ancient Christian Truth, fulfilled this Great Commission prior to the end of that Age, prior to the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple in 70 AD.
Jesus Christ descended into Hell as a mighty warrior directly after the cross, defeating Satan, casting him into the bottomless pit, breaking down the gates of Hell, and setting the captives free. This is why we call it “Good” Friday.

Who are we?
We are an independent Bible based church committed to:
• The original organic truth of Jesus Christ in every aspect of doctrine; and
• The practical application of your ensuing relationship with Christ in your everyday life.
By doctrine and faith we stand in communion with the earliest believers, men already cast out of today's modern church as heretics. Men such as:
• Eusebius (c. 265 – 340), Bishop of Caesarea and "Father of Church History"; and
• Chrysostom (c. 347 – 407), Archbishop of Constantinople and the "Man with the Golden Tongue—the Greatest Preacher in the History of the Church!"
'The belief of such men in the Kingdom of God which lies at the heart of the Gospel of Jesus, and gives its warmth and glow to the religious life of the early church, seems destined in the Christianity of today to become, if possible, even weaker in the coming generations thru the continued failure of the modern church to preach the full Gospel of the Kingdom, especially that middle third between the cross and the resurrection.'
What Will You Learn?
Discover the full revelation of the Kingdom of Heaven translated into simple every-day terms:
• A Kingdom shrouded in mystery from the fall of Adam; but
• Whose secret (thru that old rugged cross) was fully revealed in 70 AD.
'We bid you return to Early Church Preterism, that you might hold that same profound belief in redemption thru Christ as did the Apostles, a redemption rightly understood only in the context of its being an integral part of a living belief in the already present Kingdom of God.'
The Harrowing of Hell! (Christ's Plundering or Pillaging of Hell 'In The Tomb' from the time of the Early Church Fathers)
Specifically:
You will learn the full gospel of the Kingdom:
1--The Cross;
2--The Harrowing of Hell; and
3--The Resurrection
... apart from which you can never truly understand the cross or the Kingdom of God; and
You will experience the power of the necessary implications of the full gospel of the Kingdom:
• The past fulfillment of end times events in the generation of the Christ; and
You will apply the completed victory won by Christ:
• As Administered by His Apostles thru the fulfillment of the Great Commission (even the Reformers understood and taught that the Great Commission was fulfilled in Christ's generation!) prior to the wrath which came upon that final generation there at the end of time and the beginning of eternity in September of 70 AD.
(Historically the Church has always been, to one degree or another, preterist in its teaching and application of the gospel -- the good news of the Kingdom of Heaven! Remember our Lord's most common pronouncement back in the first century of His now some 2000 year old Reign: The Kingdom of Heaven IS AT HAND!)
So What?
• That's the bottom line, isn't it? What's in it for you? What's the big deal? Why should you care anyway?
Well, let me ask you this...
1) Are you tired of being told that this earth is still under the curse of sin and death?
2) Are you tired of the big lie? The one where you're told that Christ failed in His mission to undo the works of the Devil and so the whole creation is still groaning under this supposed heavy burden?
3) Are you tired of hearing that even you yourself are a sinner with a desperately wicked heart? That Christ's work wasn't enough to make you 'good'?
Early Church Preterism turns this whole defeatist worldview of the modern church, ultimately negative in this life while still maintaining a positive thread for the Christian in the next, on its head; and returns your faith back to the original pristine focus of the church — Christ's complete and finished victory!
'The impoverishment of Christianity is epidemic across the modern church; for Christianity to recover it needs people like you. People who aren't afraid to determine for themselves what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height of the love of Christ—and to know for themself that love so far beyond a mere mortal's comprehension.'
