The Church of God in Christ was founded in 1897 by C. H. Mason. He claims the name "Church of God in Christ" was revealed to him
by God while walking along a certain street in Little Rock, Arkansas. This denomination has its headquarters in Memphis, Tennessee.
They say that baptism "is an outward demonstration that one has already had a conversion experience and has accepted Christ as his personal Savior". They believe that following conversion one is baptized with the Holy Ghost which is evident by the speaking in tongues, and that one cannot be saved without
the baptism of the Holy Ghost.
They believe in and claim to practice "divine healing".

The Baptism Of The Holy Ghost We believe that the
Baptism of the Holy Ghost is an experience subsequent to conversionand sanctification and that tongue-speaking is the consequence of the baptism in the HolyGhost with the manifestations of the fruit of the spirit (Galatians 5:22-23; Acts 10:46, 19:1-6).
We believe that we are not baptized with the Holy Ghost in
order to be saved (Acts 19:1-6;John 3:5).
When one receives a baptismal Holy Ghost experience,
we believe one will speakwith a tongue unknown to oneself
according to the sovereign will of Christ.
To be filled with theSpirit means to be Spirit controlled as
expressed by Paul in Ephesians 5:18-19.
Since thecharismatic demonstrations were necessary
to help the early church to be successful inimplementing
the command of Christ, we therefore, believe that a
Holy Ghost experience ismandatory for all men today.
SALVATION Salvation deals with the application of the work of redemption to the sinner with hisrestoration to divine
favor and communion with God.
This redemptive operation of the HolyGhost upon sinners is
brought about by repentance toward God and faith toward our LordJesus Christ which brings conversion, faith, justification regeneration, sanctification, and thebaptism of the
Holy Ghost.C. Water BaptismHowever, we do not believe that
water baptism alone is a means of salvation,
but is anoutward demonstration that one has already had
a conversion experience and has accepted
Christ as his personal Savior.
