Christ Gospel Church is a fundamentalist, Pentecostal Christian denomination. It was founded in the 1950s by Reverend Berniece R. Hicks and fellow believers starting in a small storefront mission on skid row in Louisville, Kentucky. Rev. Hicks still takes an active part in the church despite her advanced age. ==Doctrines==
Christ Gospel Churches affirm their acceptance of the Apostles' Creed as an expression of Christian faith. Their Pentecostal emphasis is seen in their teaching of the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues (Acts 2:4,11,38).¹ They teach that water baptism in Jesus' Name is a commandment for all Christians (Acts 2:38; 8:12; 9:5,18).¹ However, salvation comes only through faith in the atoning death and resurrection of Christ. Baptism in the Holy Spirit and in water are not prerequisites for salvation, but are gifts freely given by God to help believers grow spiritually. They teach that God is a Trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. The churches welcome all races and classes of people. They teach "old-fashioned holiness" in matters of conduct and dress, but also that there are different levels of commitment among believers and regard this as a matter of the individual conscience. The emphasis of Rev. Hicks' teachings is that the Bible is the infallible Word of God and that it calls on Christians to grow to spiritual maturity, both in their moral development and in their spiritual love relationship with Jesus Christ. The Old Testament and the New Testament are in perfect harmony to reveal the Lord Jesus Christ. For example, the Mosaic Tabernacle in the Old Testament was laid out in the form of a cross, and serves as a picture or roadmap of believers' spiritual experiences as taught in the New Testament to grow to maturity in Christ Jesus (Hebrews 9:8-11; Ephesians 2:19-22). A core principle found throughout the Bible is that God is the Head over all things, and that all things work together for good to those who love the Lord. The Bible reveals degrees of glory for believers, and only those who seek a deeper walk with Jesus Christ in this life will enter into the Bride of Christ to be in His Personal Presence in eternity in the New Jerusalem. Other believers will be kings and priests on the New Earth and in the New Heavens.
