Articles of Faith

The following are the Articles of Faith, which are cornerstone to the beliefs of our community:

  1. We believe in God, as universal love, power, and wisdom, the Creator of all that is now, has been, or ever shall be. That God manifests as all creation, both self-conscious (which is Christ, or Spirit), and inanimate (which is matter or form). That God exists both actively and quietly.

  2. We believe there is oneness in all creation. Man is a divine aspect of God, immortal Spirit, and already perfect. Man's true state is Christ consciousness. That man, through many embodiments upon this plane, gains the experience and perfection that leads to unity with the Creator.

  3. We believe that as sons of the living God, we are truly our brother's keeper. We believe that the practice of the golden rule, Matthew 7:12, "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you", is the path that best exemplifies the principles of love, peace, and brotherhood.

  4. We believe that, in taking human form, we lose sight of our true light selves and that our prime purpose on this planet is learning to remember that we are eternal Spirit. We may take many different forms at many different times until the lessons are learned. We become as Gods manifesting our surroundings by our attitudes and attentions. When we raise our hearts and sight in harmony to the Source we are once more united, and that a true understanding and serving of mankind, as well as the other kingdoms, progresses our return to the Supreme.

  5. We believe in oneness with all life, animal, vegetable, mineral, as well as human, and seek to pattern our living in harmony with all creation. Mankind strives to learn harmony by working with the nature kingdom and Angelic force.

  6. We seek to establish a "Bridge of Consciousness", uniting all philosophies and truths, recognizing the basic universality of all people, and that all paths lead to God.

  7. We seek to help all to become aware of their own divinity by teaching ways to flow with the universal essence of the Creator, in keeping with the Universal Laws of God and recognizing the Christ within.

  8. We believe that we can best fulfill The Divine Plan through personal example, spiritual teachings, counseling, and service to our fellow man.
