The General Assembly of 1907 officially adopted the name Church of God. During the years which followed the disruption within the Church in 1923, there was much controversy over which group had the legal right to that name. Several protracted legal proceedings failed to resolve the issue satisfactorily. For several years we used the name "Church of God, over which A. J. Tomlinson is General Overseer," but that did not fully settle the matter. Finally, in 1952, the issue was decided in the Chancery Court of Bradley County Tennessee when the judge decreed that the suffix "of Prophecy" be added to our name for use only in secular and business affairs to distinguish us from other organizations with similar names. We agreed to the ruling in order to be in legal compliance, and we continue to use the name in conducting our external affairs. In our internal affairs, government, and worship we normally use our original name, Church of God. |

"be displayed because of the truth" (Psalms 60:4). Because the Scripture teaches that Jesus Christ is "the Truth" (John 14:6), the various designs and colors on the flag represent His character and work. Thus, the red represents His blood, the blue His truth, and the white His purity The purple scepter, star, and crown all represent His royalty or kingship. As was stated when the flag was first introduced, its components "all point to our Christ." |
