Could this be what you think? I don’t need to be “saved” . . . I was never lost. I was not born a sinner. Dogma is for people who need structure and someone to teach them right from wrong. We don’t need to be taught right from wrong. We are made in the image and likeness of God. We have the potential for Wholeness and are responsible for our choices, actions, experiences and the results they create. Jesus’s teachings are very relevant and useful for the 21st Century, as are the teachings of many other Divinely inspired men and women. Jesus was the great example not the great exception. Here's what we think. . . There is no devil. God is all there is in the Universe. There is only One Power and that is God. God is Intelligence, Energy, Love, Abundance, and the Creative source back of all things. Each human being is a creation of God, made in Its image and likeness, with the choice of how to use universal principles. Evil is a result of humankind’s misuse of these principles, and not sourced by a separate power. God is not human, and has no gender or limiting human emotion such as anger, wrath, vengefulness, or jealousy. God does not ever deny us or punish us but has provided the Law of Cause and Effect that says that whatever we believe, we create. We experience the consequences of this freedom of choice, never punishment by God. The “Word” of God is the great Causative Power of the Universe. God is eternally initiating the Divine Creative Process. Since the human spirit is One with Universal Spirit, our thought is creative and we re-enact in microcosm the Divine Creative Process in our lives. Here's what we are. . . Our daily practice is to discover God within us and to reveal more of our true spiritual nature and potential. People of all religions attend our church and are welcome to become members or not. Since the human spirit is One with Universal Spirit, our thought is creative and we re-enact in microcosm the Divine Creative Process in our lives. Here's what we're not. . . We do not teach you what to think. We support independent, positive, life-giving, affirmative thinking as the approach to even the most difficult of life situations. We are not a cult devoted to or obsessed with a person or principle. We do not worship a leader or a book, nor do we look to UFO’s, crystals, tarot cards or even Jesus to save us. We deplore judgment and prejudice toward any people no matter what their race, religion or sexual orientation. We do not proselytize, evangelize or attempt to convert anyone. We are not the same as Christian Science and we have no association with Scientology. We are not a “New Age” church. Notes from the Heart Sign-up to receive our e-Newsletter Click here.
