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 not a denominational church, nor are we opposed to denominations as such, only their over-emphasis 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 differences we possess and without which we have no right to claim ourselves Christian.
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 inspirational.
THEREFORE
We give great place to music in our worship.
WE BELIEVE
Worship of God should be intelligent.
THEREFORE
Our services are designed with great emphasis upon teaching the Word of God for instruction of how He would be worshipped.
WE BELIEVE
Worship of God is fruitful to our lives.
THEREFORE
We look for His love in our lives as the supreme manifestation that we have been truly worshipping Him.
I hope you don’t mind a question. Is Calvary Chapel the church that emerged from the Jesus Movement?
