Arverne Church of God, Leading the Way to Life

Be ye holy; for I am holy

True Christian living will change your life

Changing Your Life Prepares You for Heaven

It’s not about going to church for fashion or style, or to appease your conscience. It’s about making serious preparations for the next life in eternity. It’s about seeking God’s forgiveness and allowing His Holy Spirit to cleanse your heart. It’s about walking in a way that pleases Him, so that you can be received by Him at the end of life’s road. In fact, holiness is the only way to heaven!

How are you doing? Are you on the right path?

Living the Gospel of Jesus Christ

Makes the Difference!

It is one thing to know of the gospel of Jesus Christ but quite another thing to live by it. Many go to church and have a head knowledge of the Word, but lack a true life-altering, mind-transforming Christian experience.

Our purpose is to live the Word of God. Our mission is to share His Word with others. The vision is a home in heaven.

This is what we believe:

  • There is one God, and there is one body of believers.

  • Jesus is the Son of God, and He died to redeem us.

  • Salvation entails repentance and dying out to sin.

  • Salvation includes acceptance of the Holy Spirit.

  • Salvation involves uniting with the Body of Believers.
