Core Beliefs

The following are the core beliefs of Calvary Chapel St. George 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. This is not an exhaustive list of all beliefs held by Calvary Chapel St. George.

We believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God. We believe the Bible is the final authority in every area it addresses for every individual christian, as well as for the church collectively. (2 Timothy 3:16-17, 2

We believe there is one God who eternally exists as three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4, Isaiah 45:21-22, John 1, John 10:30) 

We believe that God the Father is the personal, transcendent, and sovereign Creator of all things.(Ephesians 4:6, Genesis 1:1)

We believe that God the Son became a human being in the person of Jesus Christ. That He lived a sinless life, died a substitutionary death for all mankind, was raised from the dead the third day, ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God. (John 1:1, 14, Matthew 1:18-25)

We believe that the Father and the Son sent God the Holy Spirit to convict the world of sin, bringing conviction to the unbeliever's heart and making clear the saving gospel message. We believe the Holy Spirit regenerates, indwells, and seals every believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, empowering us to live as witnesses for Christ.  (John 14:16-17, John 16:7-11)

We believe that, as a result of the fall, all people are sinners by nature and in need of a Savior, and that Jesus Christ is the one and only Savior of the world. That salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Him.   (Romans 3:10, Romans 3:23, Romans 10:10-13) 

We believe there is one church, the body of Christ, consisting of men and women from every tribe, tongue, people, and nation. We as the church welcome all. (Ephesians 4:4, 1 Corinthians 12:12-13, Acts 17:26)
