What We Believe
We
believe in God, the Living Spirit Almighty; one, indestructible,
absolute, and self-existent Cause. This One manifests itself in and
through all creation but is not absorbed by its creation. The
manifest universe is the body of
We believe in the incarnation of the Spirit
in everyone and that all people are incarnations of the One Spirit.
We believe in the eternality, the
immortality, and the continuity of the individual soul, forever and
ever expanding.
We believe that Heaven is within us and
that we experience it to the degree that we become conscious of it.
We believe the ultimate goal of life to be
a complete emancipation from all discord of every nature, and that
this goal is sure to be attained by all.
We believe that God is personal to all who
feel this Indwelling Presence.
We believe in the direct revelation of
Truth through the intuitive and spiritual nature of the individual,
and that any person who lives in close contact with the indwelling
God may become a revealer of Truth.
We believe that the Universal Spirit, which
is God, operates through a Universal Mind, which is the Law of God;
and that we are surrounded by this Creative Mind, which receives the
direct impress of our thought and acts upon it.
We believe in the control of conditions
through the power of this Mind.
We believe in the eternal Goodness, the
eternal Loving-kindness, and the eternal Givingness of Life to all.
We believe in our own soul, our own spirit,
and our own destiny; for we understand that the life of all is God.
