Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of The Call Community Church based on the foundational truths taught in the Bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.
Jesus
We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, conceived by the Holy Spirit and that he sacrificially died on the cross for our sins and rose on the third day. We believe without Jesus we can do nothing.

God
GOD IS: 1. Incomprehensible: Romans 11:33, "Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!"

4. Eternal: Psalm 90:1-2, Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations. Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. You turn men back to dust, saying, "Return to dust, O sons of men."
5. Omnipresent: Psalm139:7-10, Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
6. Omnipotent: Genesis 17:1 I am God Almighty walk before me and be perfect. Matthew 19:26 With men this is impossible but with God all things are possible.

Mankind

Salvation
We believe that salvation is a gift of God’s grace , and we receive this gift of eternal life when we trust Jesus Christ, being justified by faith. We believe that it’s God’s desire that all will be saved but we also believe that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus is the only way.

(Titus 2:13; 1 Thessalonians 1:10; John 14:1-3),(Philippians 2:9-11).
Generational sin
We are not under some curse of sin because of our ancestors. We believe that Jesus has set us free from sin, death, condemnation and the curse. When we trust Christ as Savior we are set free. We are a new creation. We are under no condemnation. We have forgiveness for all our sins. This is our identity in Christ. Once we trust Jesus for our salvation, we are in Christ and His Holy Spirit dwells in us and we become new creations.
