What does the Bible say about the Church of God?

Answered in 11 sources

The Bible describes the Church of God as a universal assembly of true believers, as well as local visible churches established to promote the truth of the Gospel.

The Church of God is portrayed in various ways in Scripture. It represents all true believers throughout history, both from the Old and New Testaments, forming a universal body known as the mystical body of Christ. Additionally, it refers to local assemblies of professed believers who gather in specific locations. Each local church, although comprising both true and false believers, is recognized as a church of God according to Romans 16:1-5. Furthermore, the church is identified as a flock of sheep, under the sovereign guidance and care of Christ, the Chief Shepherd, highlighting the relational and communal aspects of faith among believers.
