Excerpt from a short documentary produced for the Emma J. Clark Foundation. The short film was presented at the 2016 COGIC Holy Invocation in St. Louis, Missouri. Produced and directed by Doug Harris
As a young child under 10 years of age, Bishop C. H. Mason prayed that I would be healed of fainting episodes and God healed me through him and the saints. Praise God!!! I am a lifelong member of The Grand Ole Church Of God In Christ (COGIC)💒 🙏 ❤️
I thank God for the blood of Jesus I thank God for Holiness for Holiness is right I thank God for a new life in Christ Jesus I thank God that I've been changed in my life been rearranged I got joy peace and victory since I chose to turn my life over to God hallelujah we walk in Victory we walk by faith and not by sight we trust God God is real he will change our hearts and minds and conditions if we give him permission thank God for the blood of Jesus that washed my sins away.. Hallelujah I thank God I'm saved and I'm Sanctified and I'm filled with the Holy Ghost and that with fire ..no matter what's going wrong with your life. God is able to fix it.. he's a miracle-working working God...
Bishop Mason was a real man of God! His stand for holiness has left the COGIC. He lived it but now they don’t live or preach it. HOLINESS IS STILL RIGHT! Father God! restore holiness back to COGIC, in JESUS NAME! 🙌🏾🙏🏽🙇🏼♀️🙇🏽♂️🙇🏼♀️🙇🏽♂️🙇🏼♀️🙇🏽♂️🙏🏼🙌🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@ Mary Evans: Bishop Mason attended the Azuz Street Revival and had a revelation about the truth of speaking in tongues. The world needs another Azuza street revival!
Knowledge is power. It is a great idea for anyone who chose to follow the greatest church and their leadership. They should find it interesting that all religious knowledge is sted in the freedom of the slaves. I am a McLaurin, the McLaurin, name was given by the slave owner that married my great, great, great, grandmother. He married my great, great, great, grandmother, gave her freedom and gave her the McLaurin, name. My grandmother, Damley, is a C.O.G.I.C.
I loves the Holiness Churches....The bible says without Holiness no man shall see god...be yes holy 4 I am holy.....But many churches are have lost holiness...I thank God 4 my holiness church..🖐🏽🖐🏽🖐🏽🖐🏽
Im growing In a COGIC house hold and everytime I see a picture of bishop mason I always saw something off, until recently I saw him on a tarot deck card, did some research and I’m trying to find answers
I look at Mason Temple today and I am still amazed. All of the modern design and modern churches, there is something still special about Mason temple. It is the final resting place of Bishop Mason, but to me it is also physical manifestation of the scriptures. Church standing that is built on strong foundation. It was built to last.
Humble origins and a desire to know God; a heartfelt story that is also rich with history. I like the fact that the origins of this movement are multi ethnic/interracial which is what the kingdom of heaven should resemble. There are some issues that should be of concern; it seems like doctrinal Christianity is not always a top priority. Today’s COGIC Church is majority people of color (black people); the vast majority of which support a party that has as part of their platform the sins outlined in Romans 1.
He brought me out of the Miry clay he place my feet on the Rock to stay he put a song in my soul to stay it's a song of Praise Hallelujah. Thank God for the life and Ministry of William H Mason
Let some of these preachers of today face having to stand for the straight truth and face jail time - they will dip so fast!! It's said to say but it's the truth. There are only a few good MEN left that are willing to non-violently preach the true gospel and stand behind it no matter what they may loose. They know who it was that gave it all to the in the first place and they know that if HE chooses HE can more than replace it all. These are the men whose treasures are laid up in heaven where nothing can destroy it. Praise God!
Holiness is a lifestyle you got to walk and live according to what is required of you by God the problem is knowing what the scriptures really mean cogic believe you can eat pork shrimp lobster and everything else but God say you can’t so that block them from walking in holiness i mean they do have some things right but once you get one thing wrong if defeats the purpose
Bishop C.H. Mason was re-baptized in JESUS name by Bishop Hancock in Detroit in his 60’s and the General board thought he was going senile and refused to embrace the Apostles doctrine (Acts 2:38 Mark 16:1-5-17 John 3:5 Eph 4:5-6). Before he died he seen a vision of a train full of cogic members in their way to hell
The are many pentecostal denominations that come out of baptist,, plus baptist still hold the record for being the largest denomination of the Christian faith
@@lewis1707 oh yeah i believe you too fr fr a lot of people don't need to be sleeping on the baptist background i been to some spirit filled baptist churches before real rap
Notice: COGIC DID NOT come out of the Baptist Church ⛪! Bishop C. H. Mason came out of the Baptist Church BUT NOT the COGIC denomination itself! Actually the COGIC style of praise, worship, preaching, etc actually is rooted in the African foundations and traditional style of worship which is also to prove that Pentecostalism began in Africa ( Libya to be exact in the home of John Mark ). Bishop C. H. Mason recaptured and retained the style of worship from the African Ancestors NOT the European founded Baptist Church which was founded by Rogers Williams and other Europeans.
I always felt she was the most sincere of her sisters. My opinion is that her anointing speaks of her faithfulness to GOD. Most definitely she could be a multi-millions song writer and musician for the secular world but she held on to the LORD.
Regal Lamb not quite, I went in and looked it up 6 million, that is still a lot of money. My comment wasn't a put down to your aunt. I was sharing that she could of been 4 times a rich with the world probably on Forbes list of rich musicians. I knew they were wealthy.
@@michaeldavis2021 she must have not updated it. She receive constant royalties. She not my real Aunt tho lol that's what we young folks call them out of Love. Yes you are right she could have been the next Diane Warren just by writing rnb music.
Conrad, the nature of man is to be sinful. Stop cherrypicking the sins you don't like and recognize the sinful nature of man then you know WHY we should repent. Read the Bible cover to cover for once in your life and see the nature of man, simple one
Mason did what all our preachers did took slave master teaching and called it God when you don’t see separation between what the slave master taught verses what we teach today and leaving us with the question how was the slave master hearing from God answer you must be creative to make it fit meaning is it God ?????
I Personally am Sick of All these Religions!!! They all think they are the WAY. GOD is RIGHT HERE WhERE I Am And THANK GOD I NO LONGER GIVE ANYOF MY TIME TO MAN🙏

Yes you are absolutely right

That is the truth. That's the main reason why I left. I went nondenominational just like my dad did when he was living.

WHAT IS HOLINESS?
Thts a good questions cuz clearly alot of ppl associate less of what is holy by taking out God almighty n ya cnt do tht so sad

It sounds crazy that former slaves would be highly religious. Where was the religion when they were enslaved.
There are many religions but only ONE leads to eternal life.
@@jsamc Religion doesn't lead to eternal life. Christ does.
@@generalsoulja8644 Amen !!
Holiness is right
COGIC is no longer a holiness church but a business. 😔 Sad !
Katie Lane whattt? huh
Exactly! It's always refreshing to know that people are awaken to the things that are hard to see for some, and obvious to others.✌🏽💯
Exactly

What denomination was Nat Turner?? Cause thats the message ALL YALL need
Nat Turner was very powerful.
This type of history and more should be taught at the convocation and get rid of all that crazy 30 sexond praise break childishness
I agree with you.
Thanks for saying that. Historian Mz Dorcas Duffey should be invited. She is awesome!
Mason did what all our preachers did took slave master teaching and called it God when you don’t see separation between what the slave master taught verses what we teach today and leaving us with the question how was the slave master hearing from God answer you must be creative to make it fit meaning is it God ?????
Hey at least he flipped it and made some money and a name for himself 😆
IT IS A FALSE BELIEF THE CHRISTIAN TEACHINGS CAME FROM WHITES TO BLACKS IT WAS THE OPPOSITE
Watch pastor Gino Jennings
BOOM!💥🎯👍🏽
Why?and for what reason?
Great preacher, but wrong on women preaching.
I Personally am Sick of All these Religions!!! They all think they are the WAY. GOD is RIGHT HERE WhERE I Am And THANK GOD I NO LONGER GIVE ANYOF MY TIME TO MAN🙏
Cogic fell far away from holiness!!!!!
Theresa Kipper no we haven’t
@@freddieshelton1644 If you can't see that they have fallen away from holiness you are BLIND.
@@freddieshelton1644 🤭🤔😏😏 Ask Gino Jennings he will tell yall how and Why lol
Ferleen Joseph with all due respect Gino is an idiot
Theresa Kipper I’m far from blind my dear sister.
I wish black people would realize that all ancient cultures had traditions, laws, stories, myths etc. No reason to follow any god belief.
Why don't you realize that people have a right to do as they please, and stop trying to impinge your own notions on a whole race of people
For real what our culture went through out America dark history, faith is the only thing that kept us living.....
