Calvary Chapel Sarasota Statement of Faith
What we believe about the Bible
The scriptures, both Old and New testaments, to be the inspired Word of God, without error in the
original writing, the complete revelation of His will, for the salvation of men and the divine and final
authority for Christian faith and life.
What we believe about God and the Trinity
In one God, creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three persons, Father,
Son and Holy Spirit.
What we believe about the Holy Spirit
That the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ, enduring this age to convict
men, regenerate the Believing sinner, indwell, guide, instruct and empower the Believer for Godly
living and service.
What we believe about Jesus Christ
That Jesus Christ is true God and true man having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the
virgin Mary. He died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sins according to Scriptures. Further, He
arose bodily from the dead, ascended into Heaven, where at the right hand of the Majesty on High,
He is now our High Priest and advocate and we are anticipating His imminent return.
and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the
darkness, and your night will become like the noonday. Isaiah 58:10
