Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of Calvary Chapel LAX based on the foundational truths taught in the Bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.
We believe
The Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God.
We believe
There is one true and living God who eternally exists in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
We believe
In the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, His vicarious and atoning death on the cross, resurrection, ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His imminent return to earth in power and glory.
We believe
In the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of mankind. It is by grace alone through faith that all who believe in the atoning blood of Jesus Christ are saved and justified.
We believe
In the active ministry of the Holy Spirit who equips the church with gifts which empower believers to manifest His presence to the world and accomplish His purposes.
We believe
In the spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, and that as Christians we are examples of the love of God to the world. It is this agape love that we desire to operate in and without which we cannot call ourselves Christians.
We believe
That the worship of God is spiritual, inspired, intelligent and fruitful. Therefore we yield to the leading of the Holy Spirit when we worship and place great value in the gift of music in our worship.
