The COGC holds that Jesus Christ is the Son of God — a genuinely human being born of the Virgin Mary — who is distinct from and subordinate to the Father. Jesus is not a pre-existent divine person who became flesh but a new human being brought into existence by the miraculous action of God in Mary's womb. His identity as the Son of God derives from this divine origin (conceived by God's power) and his unique relationship with the Father.

Jesus lived a sinless life as the ideal human representative before God, died on the cross as the atoning sacrifice for sin, and was raised from the dead by the Father. After the resurrection, he was exalted to the Father's right hand and given divine authority over all creation. The COGC affirms that Jesus now exercises a form of divine lordship — he is genuinely 'Lord' and worthy of honor — while remaining distinct from the Father and subordinate to him.

The COGC's Christology is consistent with the broader non-Trinitarian tradition shared with Christadelphians and Biblical Unitarians: Jesus is fully human, not a pre-existent divine being, and his exaltation after the resurrection grants him a unique and exalted status without making him co-equal with the Father. The COGC regards this as the Christology of the New Testament itself, before it was altered by Nicene theological developments.
