There has been a battle brewing between the General Board and the General Assembly. Some members of the General Board would like to close the lid on the General Assembly and keep them in a docile subservient position. They seem to forget, the General Assembly came into being before the office of Chief Apostle (Click this link). The General Assembly is approximately 108 years old. The General Board and office of Presiding Bishop is 52 years old. The General Assembly has existed since the inception of COGIC. The General Board is the new kid given the executive responsibilities and now like spoiled entitled children, they think they run everything. Just because you give your children control of their room does not mean the control the whole house. If it chooses, the General Assembly can abolish the Presiding Bishops office and the General Board however they would have to choose another form of a Bishop led government.
