The Origin of The Redeemed Christian Church of God
Pa Akindayomi Was Born
In July 1909, a son was born into the Akindayomi family of Ondo State of Nigeria. Even though this child grew up surrounded by idol worshippers, he knew there existed a greater power and yearned to know, “The God who created the earth and everyone on it”.
how can we help?
- Home
We Value The Pursuit Of God
We thirst for His presence and to know more of Him through private and public worship, the Word and prayer Psalm 42:1-2, 63:1-3; Matt 5:23; Luke 6:21
We Value The Servant Leadership
Our leaders shall serve the members of the church as Christ did selflessly and not for profit or self-glorification.
Matthew 10:42; John 13:13-15; Acts 20:18-19
We Value Christlikeness
We want to be like the Lord and savior in all conduct. We want to minister by serving people the way He did with compassion, under the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit. We shall convey the love, mercy and power of God through the ministry of the church. Luke 14:16-20; John 20:21; Ephesians 5:2; Colossians 3:12
We Value The Mercy Of God
We shall always recognize in humility that all the goodness we receive from God is a result of His mercies, even those blessings we may regard as “rights” because of our relationship with Him as children. We shall therefore seek to extend mercy to another and to all who come under the ministry of the church. Psalm 52:8; Lamentation 3:22-23; Colossians 3:12; James 5:11
We Value Godly Family Life
Where parents live as examples and cultivate an environment in which the spiritual, emotional and social growth of their children can be fully accomplished. Deuteronomy 6:7; Proverbs 22:6; 2 Timothy 3:15
We Value Giving
We shall always recognize in humility that all the goodness we receive from God is a result of His mercies, even those blessings we may regard as “rights” because of our relationship with Him as children. We shall therefore seek to extend mercy to another and to all who come under the ministry of the church. Psalm 52:8; Lamentation 3:22-23; Colossians 3:12; James 5:11
We Value Marital Fidelity
Where husband and wife can depend on each other to provide spiritual, emotional and intimate needs. Proverbs 5:15-19; 1 Corinthians 7:3-5, Galatians 5:19-20; Hebrews 13:4
We Value Personal And Corporate Integrity
and therefore shall deal and conduct our affairs truthfully and honestly such that the gospel of Jesus Christ shall not suffer any reproach because of our conduct. 2 Corinthians 13:8; Ephesians 4:15, 5:9; 6:14; James 5:12
We Value Purposeful Singleness
where the uniqueness of being single (unmarried) should be used to bless the church. Matthew 19:12c; 1 Corinthians 7:32-34
We Love Unity In The Body of Christ.
We Love Unity In The Body of Christ. We agree with the scriptures that all who believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior belong to one body of Christ. We shall seek to maintain the unity with all such believers. Psalm 133:1; Romans 12:5; Ephesians 4:3-6,13

Legacy is important to all people
As Israel’s legacy has its root from Abraham so does the legacy of the Redeemed Christian Church of God
God reaffirmed His promise to Abraham in Genesis 17: 1-9
In Genesis 26: 1-5 it was Isaac’s turn to enjoy a legacy
Abraham’s obedience created a wonderful legacy for his son, Isaac. Genesis 26: 12-16
Jacob further enjoyed the legacy of his fathers Genesis 35:12-15
“And the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.”
Passing on the Touch from Abraham to Isaac…
In Genesis 26: 1-5 it was Isaac’s turn to enjoy a legacy
“…And the Lord appeared to Isaac and said, Go not down to Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of.”
Then Isaac sowed in the land, and received in the same year a hundredfold: and the Lord Blessed him
Jacob enjoyed the legacy of his fathers
“And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.” –Genesis 35: 12-15
Israel continued to enjoy the legacy when God raised Moses to lead Israel out of Egypt
The spoken word over the children of Israel could not be kept bound by the Egyptians
“I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob”
“I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry…for I know their sorrows”
Today we who are the seed of Abraham by faith in Christ Jesus, enjoy the legacy of Israel.
For He hath remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
God was the foundation as He called out a man.
RCCG started in Nigeria in 1952 by a man of God
Reverend Josiah Akindayomi
Though an illiterate he was mighty in the word
“And God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty”
