| Calvary
Church is a Bible-believing, Nazarene congregation in the tradition
of John Wesley.
- We believe in one Creator God, who reveals
himself as Father, Son
and Spirit.
- We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ.
- We believe that the Bible is the inspired
and relevant Word of God.
- We believe that all people have sinned
and need God’s grace and forgiveness, which is freely available
through Jesus’ death on the cross.
- We believe God draws us to himself
but the decision to respond is ours.
- We believe that an individual must repent
and trust Christ to receive forgiveness and eternal life.
- We believe that as Christians we need
to offer our whole lives to God (the biblical word for this is
sanctification). When we give ourselves to God in this way, his
Spirit can fully mold us into Christ-likeness; his perfect love
is reflected in our attitudes and actions; and God empowers us
to live more abundantly.
- We believe that the church is the Body
of Christ, carrying on his purposes in the world.
- We believe that God can bring healing.
- We believe that Jesus Christ is coming
again.
- We practice the sacraments of Baptism
and Communion (also known as the Lord’s Supper).
