Doctrinal Statement of Calvary Road
Ministries
God
We believe that there is one God who exists in three
persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy
Spirit.
Jesus
We believe that Jesus is the only Son of God, was born of a
virgin, was wholly God and wholly man, lived a sinless life,
died in our place as a sacrifice for the sins of mankind,
was buried, arose bodily from the grave, and ascended into
Heaven and is seated at the right hand of God.
Christ's Return
We believe that Jesus Christ will literally return to earth
for His church and she will at that time become the
bride of Christ.
Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit is active in convincing
unbelievers of their need for salvation, and is the
Comforter and Guide Who lives in every believer.
Bible
We believe that the Bible is the Word of God without any
error and is the sole authority for life and
faith.
Man
We believe that man is a special creation of God, made in
His image, inbreathed with Godâs Spirit; but that
through the disobedience of the first man, Adam, mankind
fell so that all men are without Godâs Spirit and are
sinners and need salvation.
Church
We believe that the church is the body of Christ in this
world and is composed of those who have repented of their
sin and accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and
Savior and have followed Him in believerâs
baptism.
Salvation
We believe that salvation is a gift received through
repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and
when saved, the Holy Spirit once again comes to indwell
man.
Assurance
We believe that every person who is truly saved is eternally
secure in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Exchanged Life
We believe that when a person is saved that they are also
spiritually co-crucified, co-buried and co-resurrected with
Jesus Christ and at that point they are spiritually "In
Christ."
Eternity
We believe that any person who dies in their sins without
Christ spends eternity in Hell separated from God and those
who have accepted Christ by faith when they die will spend
eternity in Heaven.
Prayer
We believe that each believer has direct access to God
through the Lord Jesus Christ by prayer.
