Mission Statement
The mission of the Cannon Beach Conference
Center is to provide and support Christ-centered Biblical
instruction, which promotes spiritual growth in individuals and
families. This is primarily carried out in a beach resort setting
where quality programs, attractive facilities, and a well-trained
staff provide an atmosphere for Christian fellowship, renewal and
relaxation.
Statement of Faith
Article I - The Scriptures: We believe in the supernatural and
plenary, verbal inspiration of the entire Scriptures in their
original writings, that they are inerrant and infallible and that
their teachings and authority are absolute, supreme, and final (1
Cor. 2:13, 2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Pet. 1:20-21)
Article II - The Godhead: We believe in the Triune God, Father,
Son and Holy Spirit, all eternal in being, identical in nature,
equal in power and glory, and having precisely the same
attributes and perfection's. We believe God is self-sufficient
and is the cause of all things. He relies upon nothing outside
Himself to accomplish His will. (Deut. 6:4; 2 Cor. 13:14; Col.
1:16-17; Rom. 11:36)
Article III - Man's Creation and Fall: We believe that man was
created in the image and likeness of God but through Adam's sin
became alienated from God, acquired a sin nature, and came under
the judicial sentence of death (Gen. 1:25-27; Rom 3:22-23;
5:12-21; Eph. 2:1-3, 12
Article IV - The Person and Work of Jesus Christ: We believe that
the Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, became man,
without ceasing to be God, having been conceived of the Holy
Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary in order that He might reveal
God and redeem sinful man. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ
accomplished our redemption through His death on the cross as a
propitiatory and substitutionary sacrifice, and that our
redemption is made sure to us by His resurrection from the dead
in the identical, though glorified, body in which He was
crucified. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is now in Heaven
exalted at the right hand of God where, as High Priest for his
people, He fulfills the ministry of Representative, Intercessor
and Advocate ( John 1:1-2; Luke 1:35; Rom. 3:24-25; 1 Peter
1:3-5; Heb. 9:24; 7:25; Rom. 8:34; 1 John1:1-2).
Article V - The Holy Spirit: We believe in the Holy Spirit, the
third Person of the Godhead, in the present age indwells all
believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, baptizes them into the Body
of Christ and seals them unto the day of redemption, and we
believe that every believer is commanded of God to be filled with
the Holy Spirit (Rom. 8:9; 1 Cor. 12:12-14; Eph. 1:13-14,
5:18-20).
Article VI - Salvation: We believe that salvation is the gift of
God offered to man by grace and received solely by personal faith
in the Lord Jesus Christ, and that this faith will manifest
itself in works pleasing to God (Eph. 2:8-10; Tit. 2:11-14).
Article VII - The Church: We believe that the Church is the
spiritual organism made up of all born-again persons in this age
( Eph. 1:22-23, 5:25-27; 1 Cor. 12-12-14).
Article VIII - The Final State: We believe that the condition and
retribution of the lost and the salvation and blessedness of the
saved are conscious and everlasting (Mark 9:43-48; Rev. 20:15,
22:3-5,11).
