1948 Changes to The RCG/WCG Constitution

Note: post-1948 additions are marked in bold and text deletions ~~by strike-outs~~.

In order to facilitate the advancement of God's work, to which the Eternal has graciously and graciously called us, and which He has raised up through the ministry and leadership of our pastor, Herbert W. Armstrong, and which has been committed to us as co-workers together in the service of Jesus Christ our Lord; in order to carry out the Great Commission of Jesus Christ to preach and publish the Gospel of the Kingdom of God to all nations as a witness; to warn our own nation and the Democracies of impending prophesied Judgment to fall unless we forsake our increasing sins and return to our God and His revealed righteous ways of living; in order to train, educate, and prepare qualified candidates or students for active service in this ministry; in order to protect and preserve this work of the Eternal, its divinely-ordained mission, and its physical assets and property.

We, therefore, band ourselves together as an association of called, baptized and consecrated believers in Jesus Christ and His Gospel, and adopt for our plan of operation and government in the service of God the following covenant, constitution, and by-laws. This instrument having been ratified and accepted after prayer, due deliberation, and full compliance with the previous rules and regulations of this Association, shall become effective as of this date, and we hereby revoke all previous action contrary thereto.

Having, as we believe, been called of God to become His children and heirs, and co-heirs and co-workers with Jesus Christ in His ministry, by divine authority of Jesus Christ the Son of the Creator God; and further, as we believe, and as attested by the "fruits" borne manifesting the direction, energizing and approval of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, our Pastor and executive Director, Herbert W. Armstrong, having been called through the will of God to this special ministry for this time in the service of Jesus Christ our Lord, we do now in the presence of Almighty God and this assembly most solemnly enter into COVENANT with Almighty God our heavenly Father, and with one another, in the name of Jesus Christ:

1) to walk together in Christian love; to remain at all times loyal to this Church as scriptural constituted by this instrument; to do our individual utmost in the Spirit of Christ, to preserve harmony and effective co-operation among ourselves in carrying forward our divinely-appointed mission; to abide faithfully by the scriptural rules and regulations herein set forth as the practice of this body, and to defend this institution as the active ministry of the true Church of God by our acts, our prayers, our expressions in words, especially when in the presence of others;

2) to do, each one, his or her part, so far as lies within our ability, toward the divine Commission given this Church by its Head and Leader, Jesus Christ, by continuous earnest prayer, by faithfully paying God's tithe and giving offerings generously as God prospers, and by whatever personal effort or activity which we may be fitted and called upon to perform;

3) to walk circumspectly in the world, to be subject to the laws and government of our nation, to pray for the president and leaders of the national government, to be careful to give a good account of ourselves at all times before the world in order that we may win, so far as within us lies as Christians the respect and approbation of the world, to avoid the appearance of evil or placing a stumbling-block before others, to practice the Great Command "thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself" with charity toward all and malice toward none; following the example of Jesus Christ by the faith and in the power of His Spirit.

This association, a corporation, shall be known as ~~RADIO CHURCH OF GOD~~ WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD.

The object and purpose of this Association shall be to carry out the active ministry, according to the call and commission of Jesus Christ, of the true CHURCH OF GOD and its various local Churches with which it is associated and from which it has come into being; which scriptural call and commission is:

1) to preach and to publish the true Gospel of Jesus Christ, which is the New Testament MESSAGE which God sent by and was preached by Jesus Christ our Lord -- the Gospel of the Kingdom of God, in all the world as a witness unto all nations in fulfillment of the prophecy for this time of Matthew 24:14; 2) to effectively warn the people of the United States, the British Commonwealth of Nations, and the Democracies of Northwestern Europe whom we understand to be the descendants of the House of Israel, of the divine judgments from Almighty God prophesied soon to fall on our peoples in punishment unless we repent of and turn from our increasing sins and violations of God's laws, and return to national and individual total reliance upon the God of our fathers;

4) to minister to those whom God adds to His Church, feeding the flock with the pure Word of God by personal contact and by literature;

5) to establish, raise up, and maintain according to New Testament pattern, local churches composed of those whom God gives us;

6) to establish and conduct one or more educational institutions or other instruments to educate and train students for active duty in this ministry of worldwide evangelism, organization and conduct of local churches;

7) to minister to the material need of God's people, by healing the sick through prayer and faith in God's promises of healing, and whatever other physical or material ministry we nay be equipped to give.

Section 1. Those who are recognized members of all local churches affiliated with this Association, together with those active co-workers in this ministry, whether by tithes and offerings and prayers only, or by this and personal active full or part-time service, who have been baptized into Jesus Christ and show evidence by the fruits of their lives of having received and being now led by the Holy Spirit of God and who keep the Commandments of God and the faith of Jesus Christ, and who acknowledge this as their sole and only church affiliation shall be considered as members of the RADIO CHURCH OF GOD.

Section 2. Reception of Members: No person can join the Radio Church of God or any of its affiliated local Churches of God, in the usual sense of the word. We conceive, as revealed in Holy Scripture, that God adds to the Church such as are being saved, and it is by his Spirit being received on Conversion that one is baptized or inducted into the true Body of Christ. Any person qualifying according to Section 1 first above, in whom we perceive the grace of God as manifested by the "fruits" borne in his or her life, shall, if located near or visiting one of the local churches, be given the right hand of fellowship in public meeting by the local membership; or, where not accessible to a local congregation in our fellowship, such members, considered as already having been added to the Body of Christ, the true Church of God, by the Holy Spirit, shall be if and when possible extended the right hand of fellowship by any authorized minister or representative of this Body. Isolated members, however, may be considered and recognized as members of the RADIO CHURCH OF GOD without, or pending being extended the right hand of fellowship in this personal manner.

Section 3. Dismissal of Members: Since we are warned in the New Testament that even of our own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things to cause division and draw away disciples after them; that "wolves" in "sheep's clothing" making an appearance and pretence of being true disciples or ministers will enter in among God's true Christians for greedy purpose; and since we are commanded to mark them that cause division and offenses contrary to the teaching of the Bible, and to avoid them; and since Jesus specifically taught that unprofitable servants shall be cast out of the Kingdom of God; and since the Scriptures instruct Christians in the procedure for disfellowshipping such; therefore it shall be the duty of every member of the Radio Church of God to follow this scriptural instruction, by first going to the guilty one and then if necessary telling it to the Church (Matt 18); and the one guilty of fomenting strife or division, or of continuing in the breaking of any of the Commandments of God, or persisting in a spirit of opposition, competition, dissention, or disloyalty to this Church, its mission and work, or any of its institutions, shall, upon approval of the pastor and two thirds of the members present at any meeting be excluded from membership and disfellowshipped by the congregation provided, however, that two weeks' notice of said meeting shall have been given the one in question and the congregation in advance, and the one involved shall have had opportunity to appear in his or her own behalf, and provided further that the scriptural steps pointed out in Matthew 5 and 18 shall have been followed in a sincere attempt to reconcile the offending member. In the case of a member-at-large, distant from and inaccessible to a local church, an offending member may be excluded by the general Pastor of this church upon approval of a majority of the directors, but only after a full and fair review of all the facts and evidence, the offending member having had opportunity to present his or her case in person or in writing to the entire board, and after prayer. and the authority therefore vested in the Church, if the same be deemed expedient for the protection or other benefit of the Church, to mark them that cause division and offenses contrary to the teaching of the Bible, to make a full statement of the reasons to the congregation for doing so, and/or disfellowship such persons and avoid them. The determination as to which remedial procedure is to be invoked, and whether or not the same is `deemed expedient,' shall be within the sole and subjective discretion of the ministers duly authorized by the Church to make such a determination

He must be a qualified student of the Bible, possessing good and broad understanding, apt to teach, able to answer the gainsayers in diplomatic, spiritual, and convincing manner, possessing qualities of leadership.

Deacons shall be appointed under same conditions as specified above, according to qualifications in I Tim 3:8-13. A woman may not be a pastor, minister, elder, or deacon.

Section 1. Basic Doctrine: The doctrine of this Church shall be that of a plain and literal understanding of the Holy Bible, believing it means exactly what it says; -- of the Bible alone, and not as interpreted by any other book or person, but it is a point of basic doctrine in this Church that we understand the Bible to reveal a divine Creator, the Almighty God, a divine Saviour, the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who came in the human flesh, proclaimed the Gospel of the coming world-ruling Kingdom of God, which is obligatory for all Christians to believe; who died to pay the penalty of our sins in our stead; who was raised from the dead after three days and three nights in the grave by God the Father; who ascended to the right hand of the Father in heaven; who is soon coming again literally and in Person to earth to set up the Kingdom of God, and as King of Kings and Lord of lords to rule all nations by this world-ruling Kingdom for one thousand years; we believe in the Commandments of God and the faith of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Section 2. Belief on Bearing Arms: It is the conviction, and firm belief of this Church and its membership that Christian disciples of Christ are forbidden by Him and the Commandments of God to kill, or in any manner directly or indirectly to take human life by whatsoever means; and we believe that bearing arms is directly contrary to this fundamental doctrine of our belief; and we, therefore, conscientiously refuse to bear arms or to come under the military authority.

Section 3. Basis for Fellowship: The basis for fellowship in this Church or any of its local congregations shall be LOVE alone, plus the adherence to and belief in the general basic doctrine stated in Section 1 above, and the requirement of repentance of sin (the transgression of God's law) and the acceptance of Jesus Christ as personal Saviour, and the receiving of the Holy Spirit of God evidenced by the fruits of the Spirit (Gal 5) in the member's life.

These articles may be amended at any annual or special business meeting called for that purpose, upon recommendation of the changes by the President and Pastor with the approval of a majority of the members present.

Every person who serves as a director, officer, or employee of the corporation, and every person who serves at the written request of the corporation (or at its oral request subsequently confirmed in writing) as a director, officer, or employee of another business, whether or not incorporated, in which the corporation owns a proprietary interest, may, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation from and against any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed on or incurred by him in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding, civil or criminal, in which he may become a party or otherwise involved because of his being or having been a director, officer, or employee of the corporation, or of the other business in which the corporation may own a proprietary interest, whether or not he has this relationship when the loss, cost, liability, or expense was imposed or incurred. The phrase "loss, cost, liability, or expense" shall include all expenses incurred in defense of the claim, action, suit, or proceeding and the amounts of judgments, fines or penalties levied or rendered against the indemnified person, provided that no person shall be entitles to indemnity under this section unless the Board of Directors determines that he was acting in good faith and within what he reasonably believed the scope of his employment or authority and for a purpose that he reasonably believed to be in the corporation's best interest.

Payments authorized under this section shall include amounts paid and expenses incurred in settling the claim, action, suit, or proceeding, whether actually begun or only threatened.
