our history

A Long-Lasting Legacy in the Community

The Spring City Church of God started in the 1940s with a group of individuals who had the desire to worship and praise God. The first church was located at the corner of Short Street and West Rhea Avenue.


In 2020, after many years of being known as the Spring City Church of God, it was decided that a name change was needed to better reflect the church's heart for the community. With the guidance of the Lord, the name Restoring Hope Church was chosen. To learn more about our history, visit the display at the Spring City Museum or get in touch with us today.

We Believe

THE BIBLE

In the verbal inspiration of the Bible. Holiness is God's standard of living for His people.

GOD

In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely, the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

JESUS

That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the Intercessor.

HOLY SPIRIT

The baptism with the Holy Ghost is subsequent to a clean heart.  Speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance is the initial evidence of the baptism in the Holy Ghost.

HUMANITY

All have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all and necessary for forgiveness of sins.

SALVATION

 Justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ. Water baptism by immersion is for all who repent. We baptize in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

ETERNITY

The premillennial second coming of Jesus is to first, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the living saints to Him in the air and second, to reign on the earth for a thousand years. The bodily resurrection is for all men, with eternal life for the righteous and eternal punishment for the wicked.

THE CHURCH

Divine healing is provided for all in the Atonement. We believe in the Lord's Supper and the washing of the saint's feet.

In the baptism with the Holy Ghost subsequent to a clean heart. Speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance is the initial evidence of the baptism in the Holy Ghost.

  • What is a Christian?

    You need to be saved.

    For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (Romans 3:23)

    You cannot save yourself.

    Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; (Titus 3:5)

    God has provided your salvation.

    For God so loved the world, that he gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)

    Jesus is the only way to salvation.

    Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6)

    God desires to save you.

    The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (II Peter 3:9)

  • How can I be saved?

    Acknowledge yourself as a sinner.

    For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. (Psalms 51:3)

    Believe what God says in the Bible.

    And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. (Acts 16:31)

    Repent - Turn to God.

    I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:3)

    Call upon the Lord from your heart, and ask Him to save you.

    For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13)

  • I am saved, what next?

    Be assured of salvation.

    My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: (Philippians 1:6)

    Be Baptized.

    Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: (Acts 2:41)

    Join a local Church.

    Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. (Hebrews 10:25)
