The Church of the Living God, Pillar and Ground of the Truth, The Light of the World is the restoration of the Primitive Christian Church and announces the good news of salvation to all mankind. It was constituted by Jesus Christ, our founder and foundation. It preserves an invariable faithfulness towards the Government, the Gospel, the Doctrine, the Holy Sacraments, as well as the Celestial Promises established and given by Jesus Christ our Savior.

The Church receives as members any who maintains themselves subjected to the Christian doctrine, without discrimination of race, sex, nationality, age, economic position, educational level, etc.

Our Mission Is...

To make known to everyone, the message of spiritual salvation; To contribute to the peace between mankind and all nations through the Gospel of Jesus Christ; To reconcile man with God and his neighbor, giving the hope of eternal life through the subjection of the Christian doctrine; To instill in everyone the sense of moral responsibility toward family and society.

The Church, The Light of the World, establishes three kinds of principles that govern the lives of its members. These principles govern our lives religiously, morally and secularly. These principles do not contradict nor violate the inalienable rights of every human being, but are used for guidance purposes only.

Thus... more than two thousand years ago, Jesus Christ, the son of God, appeared on earth to carry out a plan established by God, his father. This objective was conceived and planned before the foundation of Earth by God himself. So, God had determined that Jesus Christ make known the message given to him by his father, laying the foundation of Christianity.

The Christian religion established by Jesus Christ emphasized loving one’s neighbor and one’s enemy; forgiving any slight and reconciling with friends; avoiding to do justice by one’s own hand, but rather awaiting God’s justice; dedicating time to prayer; having faith and hope, love and gratitude; having the ability to love and forgive; and inviting the first believers to share all they had with others; and above all, to love God and Jesus Christ.

The Church, constituted by the Son of God, is built on the base of the apostles and prophets, being the main stone above all humanity Jesus himself, who was sent from the heavens from God, so that all humanity no matter what race, or sex, would be saved if they come and know the truth and follow his footsteps. As the scripture says in Matthew 5:14-16, glorify your Father which is in heaven.

What happened to the Church that Jesus Christ founded over two thousand years ago? Did it cease to exist or was it extinguished? If this were the case, was the divine plan ruined? If not, then, is the church that Jesus Christ founded still in existence? Where is it now and how can it be identified?

The Church of Jesus Christ is unique and indivisible and it is eternal because it coexists with the design of God. For this reason, the plan of God was not ruined nor did the Church disappear. In the first years after the death of the last Apostle, those who formed the Church were the faithful to the commandments previously mentioned and now praised God in the place called "Abraham’s bosom."

Throughout the world indeed, there were no men who would jointly integrate with the people whose identity and meaning of life would be God’s commandments. Until the year 1926, there were no people of God.

The moment and time chosen by God to reveal the origins that Jesus Christ had established more than 1900 years before had arrived by this year. Like other occasions, it was necessary that God use two determining variables in order to execute his plan. On the one hand, the variable of time and on the other hand the existence of a man chosen by God to carry out his plans.

In 1926, the presence of the Chosen of God to administer the spiritual wealth and receive God’s mysteries, guaranteed the formation of a group of believers whose main characteristics would be the same as those established by Jesus over 1900 years before. Thus, the Church would have a foundation and founder, the Master of Nazareth himself. It was Tuesday, April 6, 1926, in the city of Monterrey, Mexico. The day, month and year established by God to give Restoration to the Primitive Church of Jesus Christ came with the calling of the Apostle of Jesus Christ, Aaron Joaquín Gonzalez.

The guidance and labor of the Apostle of Jesus Christ, Aaron Joaquín Gonzalez, ended on June 9, 1964. From that moment on, the guidance of the Church was left on the hands of the Apostle of Jesus Christ, Samuel Joaquín Flores.

God, through our brother Aarón carried out miracles and wonders and the words that he preached were full of the Holy Spirit and the grace of the living God. Brother Aarón fulfilled the plans that God revealed to him, since his words were true; the branch of Aarón bloomed again over the face of the earth.
