Bishop J. L. Payne, COGIC, Jackson, MS

The COGIC, USA, Int'l Church is a Pentecostal, Protestant Christian Church in America with Headquarters in Jackson, MS, tracing its roots to an anniversary date of 1895 with COGIC, Int'l when in the year of 1895, Elders C.P. Jones, J.A. Geter, C.H. Mason and others while searching the scriptures, saw that they could not be saved without holiness. They were sanctified through the truth and began to preach this doctrine to their hearers. Because of such doctrine, they were ejected from the Baptist Church. Later in that same year, those same brethren congregated themselves and were known as the Church of God: Acts 20:28; 1 Corinthians 1:2:10-32; 2 Corinthians 1:1 and 1 Timothy 3:5:15 (Please refer to the history of the COGIC Church in this site.
