Statement of Faith
Calvary Chapel has been formed as a fellowship of believers in the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Our supreme desire is to know Christ and to be conformed into His image by the power of the Holy Spirit. We are neither a denominational church, nor are we opposed to denominations as such, only their over-emphases of the 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 difference we possess. Therefore: Without His love, we have no right to claim ourselves to be Christians.
We Believe worship of God should be Spiritual. Therefore: We remain flexible and yielded to the leading of the Holy Spirit to direct our worship.
We Believe worship of God should be Intelligent. Therefore: Our services are designed with great emphasis upon teaching the Word of God that He might instruct us how He should be worshiped.
We Believe worship of God is Fruitful. Therefore: We look for His love in our lives as the supreme manifestation that we have truly been worshiping Him.
