OUR CHURCH PRINCIPLES


We believe:


  1. That the Universe is founded and subsists upon undeviating law, order and purpose.
  2. That all Life is a manifestation of Spirit.
  3. The continuity of human life (Self) after the change called death.
  4. That every individual carries unchanged into the Spirit World memory and all of his own distinctive personality and characteristics.
  5. That man is Spirit now with a Soul, i.e. a Spirit-body clothed in a flesh body from which it separates at death.
  6. The communion between incarnate and discarnate Spirits.
  7. The close inter-relationship of the physical and Spirit spheres or conditions.
  8. The ministry of angels (spirit-people).
  9. A continuous and progressive revelation of Truth
  10. The efficacy of prayer.
  11. Personal responsibility with Compensation by natural laws for the good, and Retribution (a natural though sometimes painful process of purification) for all the deliberate evil done here.
  12. A path of eternal advancement open to every human soul that wills to tread it by the path of eternal good.
  13. The Love, with all that implies (e.g. Willing Service), is the greatest thing in the world, being the principle law of the Universe, as taught by the great ever-living Master Jesus and other world Teachers.
  14. The Fatherhood of God and a practical Brotherhood of Man.
  15. The Leadership of Jesus Christ.
