A Clear, Exciting, Twofold Commission

From the beginning of Jesus Christ’s ministry with just 12 disciples to the hundreds and thousands of laborers, supporters and co-workers of today, God’s work has had a vital job to do. The purpose for which Christ established the Church characterizes its work—its activities and overall commission.

The work is a spiritual work. In the New Testament, Christ showed us that the purpose of God’s work is twofold. First, we are to proclaim to the world as a witness the good news of the coming Kingdom of God. As part of that witness, we are to publish the Bible’s warning of the disasters that will precede Christ’s Second Coming because of mankind’s sins. Secondly, we are to spiritually nourish the Church itself, preparing the people God calls for future responsibilities under Christ when He returns to rule all nations in love.

The many and varied endeavors of the PCG all trace back to this clear, exciting twofold commission. The ministers and members of the PCG are dedicated to proclaiming and living the way of life explained in the Bible. It is a way of sharing and giving, of caring for one another, of striving for godliness in all our dealings with fellow man. It is a way of family harmony and joy, a way of peace among nations and peoples of all cultures and races. It is a way of rigorous accomplishment, and drawing on God’s help to achieve the very fullest of our incredible human potential.

The PCG is working—humbly, but diligently—to hasten the day when, as the Prophet Isaiah said, “the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.”
