The name, Foursquare Gospel, was born in the heat of revival in Oakland, California, in July 1922. Foursquare is a Biblical term, beginning with the description of the foursquare altar in the book of Exodus (Exodus 27:1; 28:16; 30:2; 37:25, 38:1, 39:9) and ending with the survey of heaven, the foursquare city, as described in the book of Revelation (Revelation 21:16). This is a fitting term to describe the complete Gospel of Jesus Christ who is our (1) Redeemer; (2) our Baptizer with the Holy Spirit; (3) our Healer; (4) and our Soon-Coming King. The Foursquare Gospel, the good news of Jesus, is a Christ-centered emphasis with a many-faceted doctrine.

 

The Foursquare Logo was born out of a revelation that Aimee Semple McPherson received in Oakland, California in July 1922. Part of that revelation was a picture from the book of Ezekiel. Ezekiel had seen a divine creature perceived with four faces. The faces included the face of a man, a lion, an ox, and an eagle. These four faces were likened unto the four phases of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Sister McPherson observed the following:

● In the face of the man, I saw the Man of Sorrows, One acquainted with grief dying on the tree, Jesus our Savior.

● In the face of the lion, I saw the Mighty Baptizer with the Holy Ghost and fire, Jesus our Baptizer in the Holy Ghost.

● In the face of the ox, I saw typified the Great Burden-bearer, Who Himself took our infirmities and carried our sickness, Jesus our Healer and Great Physician.

● In the face of the eagle, I saw reflected the Coming King, our Bridegroom, Who would soon come to catch away His beloved Bride. Jesus our Soon Coming King.
