Core Beliefs
Only through Jesus Chris is eternal life possible to everyone who receives Him as Savior and Lord. We believe in God's Holy Spirit, given by Jesus Christ to all His people, as a source of strength until Jesus' return.
We believe in the gifts the Spirit brings as a sign of His presence with an absolutism on no particular gift but an openness to all of them. Only as each person allows the Spirit to work does the Church become all that God intends her to be. We believe that the Bible, God's Holy Word, sets the standard for living. It is authoritative for us as a rule of faith and practice.
The Calvary Chapel Church has been formed as a fellowship of believers in the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Our supreme desire is to know Christ and be conformed into His image by the power of the Holy Spirit. We are not a denominational church, nor are we opposed to denominations as such, only their over-emphasis of doctrinal differences that have led to the division of the body of Christ. We believe that the only true basis of Christian fellowship is His (Agape) love, which is greater than any differences we possess and without which we have no right to claim ourselves Christians.
