Trust for its members subject to COGIC laws and that Bishop Hall is a duly appointed bishop with rights of pastor atthe church. Church of God in Christ, Inc.involved Bishop Hall’s efforts to assert control over Gospel Center Temple, another COGIC church assigned to THEJ. Hesucceededin that case. Our Supreme Court stated: “In light of our. Church of God In Christ (COGIC) leader Bishop Charles Edward Blake, Sr. Will not seek another term as presiding bishop and chief apostle at the next election. “I have made the decision to not seek re-election as a member of the general board or as presiding bishop,” he said to members of the denomination in a video news release. It must however begin with the Pastor, COGIC does not recognize the rights of a congregation as some reformations do. Even though the documents do not state it, they hold all transfers or withdrawal must be initiated by the Pastor. Send me an email for further discussion. In COGIC, only a Jurisdictional Bishop can appoint a pastor, the former General Counsel Enoch Perry III stated in court the bishop has the exclusive right to appoint the next pastor. Depending on your state law, and the character of your bishop, you would be treated as a sharecropper.
