According to my former AoG pastor, the denomination is solidly Arminian in theology but "appreciates" the Reformation "emphasis on God's sovereignty. No Calvinist would have been accepted as a church officer in any AoG church he knows of anywhere.

Like most of the Pentecostal denominations, the AoG has deep roots in the "Holiness movement" that preceded Azusa and adopted the Pentecostal experience as "evidence" of superior personal obedience.
