• Humankind is created in God’s spiritual image; therefore, we are all sons and daughters of God, and we are inherently good.
• Just as one drop of water in the ocean contains the whole ocean, so each human being is infused with all the spiritual gifts from God.
• We live, and move, and have our being in God.
• The Triune nature of God is represented as Body, Mind, and Spirit.
• Jesus came to reveal the way to express our Divine Spark, which we call “The Christ.”
• Prayer actively aligns us with God and changes us.
• Meditation is an opportunity to listen to that still, small voice of God as we seek answers to life’s challenges.
• We look for the underlying spiritual meaning in the Bible and view the people, places, and events in the Bible as representing an idea or state of consciousness.
• There is no separation from God.
• The Kingdom of Heaven is within.
