Bethel Church of God

The Bethel Church of God is affiliated with the Church of God, Cleveland, Tennessee.

This local Church was set in order on June 20, 1936 with 10 charter members in the home of Lillie Comer. It then moved to a barn and eventually purchased the land at 1183 Chrisco Road in the Westmore area of Seagrove. With many additions and remodels, it has continued in that location until today.

Declaration of Faith

We believe:

  1. In the verbal inspiration of the Bible

  2. In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.

  3. That Jesus Christ is the begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the Intercessor.

  4. That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all necessary for forgiveness of sins.

  5. That justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by the blood of Jesus Christ.

  6. In the sanctification subsequent to the new birth, through faith in the blood of Christ; through the Word, and by the Holy Ghost.

  7. Holiness to be God’s standard of living for His people.

  8. In the baptism of the Holy Ghost subsequent to a clean heart.

  9. In speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance and that it is the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost.

  10. In water baptism by immersion, and all who repent should be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

  11. Divine healing is provided for all in the Atonement.

  12. Int the Lord’s Supper and washing of the saint’s feet.

  13. In the premillennial second coming of Jesus. First, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the living saints to Him in the air. Second, to reign on the earth a thousand years.

  14. In the bodily resurrection; eternal life for the righteous, and eternal punishment for the wicked.
