Beliefs
The Intercontinental Church of God is a splinter group of the U.S. based Church of God International. As such it holds to most of the distinctive beliefs taught by the Church of God International (United States) such as the continuing validity of the Law of Moses (e.g., observing Saturday as the seventh day sabbath and observing the biblical holy days) by Christians, and the falsity of the Trinity, personality of the Holy Spirit, and immortality of the soul.[3] A veracity interpretation of biblical prophecy is strongly emphasized, particularly through their sister ministry, the Garner Ted Armstrong Evangelistic Association.[4]
