The Israelite Church of God in Jesus Christ (ICGJC), formerly known as the Israeli Church of Universal Practical Knowledge, is an American organization of Black Hebrew Israelites.[1] Its headquarters are in New York City, and in 2008 had churches in cities in 10 US states. They are not to be confused with Israel of God (IOG) or Israel The Church of Christ (ICOJ), Which are separate denominations of Black Hebrew Churches who believe in multicultural/multiethnic Messianic Judaism, and overall do not align with zionism. [2][3] The ICGJC is the second largest Black Hebrew Israelite organization in the United States, the first being the Israel United in Christ.
Its leader (known as "Chief High Priest") until his death in April 2020[4] was Tazadaqyah.[2][5] The ICGJC has been described as openly antisemitic, racist, sexist and homophobic.[6][7][8][9]
