Information on Philadelphia Church of God


Beware of Philadelphia Church of God! Many have suffered spiritual abuse and financial exploitation as a result of involvement with this religious group. PCG holds to all of Herbert W. Armstrong's doctrines and claims to be "God's true church." These pages offer hope, support, understanding and freedom from a system of bondage.
