Spiritual Principles – What We Believe

Oneness

Love

There is One Infinite Reality. We call it many names, including but not limited to God, Life, Universal Spirit, Infinite Intelligence, First Cause, or The Thing Itself. The One Infinite Reality is undivided, complete, and whole within Itself. This Oneness creates everything out of itself, and therefore includes both the absolute and relative, tangible and intangible, physical and metaphysical aspects of reality.

Love is the self-givingness of Universal Spirit through its desire to express itself in terms of creation. Love is the impulse and Law is the way of creation.

Creation

Threefold Nature

The physical universe is the manifest body of The One Infinite Reality, and the One Infinite Reality is more than the physical universe. Creation is an expression of the One Infinite Reality. It is inherently Good and is ever-evolving toward greater expression of Good.

The One Infinite Reality expresses Itself in three aspects: Spirit, Law, and Body. Each individual is made in the image and likeness of the One Infinite Reality and has these same three aspects.

Creative Process

Spiritual Laws

The One Infinite Reality operates through the Universal Law of Cause and Effect. This Universal Law is impersonal, automatic, and intelligent. The Universal Law receives the direct impress of Spirit’s impulse and acts upon it, bringing it into form.

Individuals, having the same threefold nature, use the Creative Process to shape our human experience in alignment with the whole, perfect, and complete Reality.

Universal Spirit maintains harmony, equilibrium, and balance through Spiritual Law. There are various expressions and uses of Spiritual Law, for example, the law of correspondence, the law of attraction, the law of giving and receiving. Spiritual laws are impersonal, consistent, and intelligent, and are always operating. Consciously, individuals can learn to use these laws to create or change conditions.

Spiritual Beings

Freedom

The One Infinite Reality is both transcendent and immanent. Individual human beings are spiritual beings living in a spiritual universe having a human experience. This is our True Nature.

Freedom is the birthright of every individual. We are free to choose and create our experience of life.

Heaven

Eternal Life

Heaven is the state of awareness of our True Nature. We experience our True Nature to the degree we become conscious of it. We actively seek to know the True Nature of every individual and celebrate each individual’s unique expression of it. This experience of our True Nature is sure to be attained by all.

The One Infinite Reality is eternal. We believe in the eternality, the immortality, and the continuity of the individual, forever and ever expanding.
