Principles We believe: 1. The Absolute has many names - Universal Intelligence, God/Goddess, the One Spirit, Infinite Mind, Higher Power, Divine Presence, Source, and Substance of all that is, living and non-living. 2. One Spirit is also the Soul of every soul and that we are eternal and godlike at the level of our true selves. 3. God is Unity. 4. It is done unto us as we believe and we can change our beliefs; Heaven is a state of mind that we can attain now. 5. God is our source and supply for all and only wants the best for us. 6. God's will for us is eternal bliss, love, health, abundance, prosperity and good fortune. 7. God has given us the formulas for spiritual and material success which we call the Laws of Successful Living. 8. We are responsible for our own spiritual growth and we look within ourselves for answers since we are each the architects of our lives by what we desire, believe, think, say and do. 9. Prayer and the power of God can accomplish anything as all is possible with God. 10. We always get another chance to succeed and attain our heartfelt desires and goals. 11. Many paths lead to God and we uphold religious freedom and support the right of every person to worship and believe as they choose. Mission: To teach and share the spiritual principles of love, prosperity, happiness, and successful living with as many people as we possibly can. Teachings: The teachings of One Spirit Ministries are based on Truth as expressed by Unity and Religious Science, the ancient scriptures of the great world religions, wisdom of the ages, & the revelations of God-realized souls - with the greatest teacher of all times being Jesus. There are many different paths or philosophies which lead to God: Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Taoism, Sufism, Shamanism, etc.. God has many different names and forms. We respect them all: God is the Source. Christ, Krishna, Buddha, Confucius, Mohammed, etc. are Paths. The Holy Spirit, Shiva, etc. are different names for the agent or catalyst of change. Also, when we refer to the "Creator-Sustainer-Changer" or our "Mother-Father, Daughter-Son, and Holy Spirit", we are merely referring to different aspects of the one God: God encompasses both our male and female aspects while transcending both. We recognize the interconnectivity or oneness of all living beings. We recognize and cherish our connectivity to the Mother Earth, our planet, and the Universe or Cosmos. The Divine is in all living and non-living things. The Divine is the force that gives us the first breath of life and takes us to the last breath of physical death, as we do not believe in death of the spirit.....as our true nature is spiritual energy that is neither created or destroyed, but transformed. If you believe in or know God, join us in our worship of God, Sunday Mornings. See our Schedule. We believe all creation is a manifestation of God; that there are many paths that lead to God; and that God is neither male or female, but encompasses both and is beyond both. God is a matter of "Innerfaith" (not outer faith) regardless of denominations and religion. |
