What We Believe:
The Church of The
Nazarene is classified as Wesleyan
holiness in their theology. The following beliefs are
found in the Agreed Statement of Belief
(Manual of The Church of The Nazarene):
We believe…
1. In one God – the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
2. That the Old and New
Testament Scriptures, given
by plenary inspiration, contain all truth necessary
to faith and Christian living.
3. That man is born with a
fallen nature, and is,
therefore, inclined to evil, and that continually.
4. That the finally impenitent
are hopelessly and
eternally lost.
5. That the atonement through
Jesus Christ is for
the whole human race; and that whosoever repents
and believes on the Lord Jesus Christ is justified and
regenerated and saved from the dominion of sin.
6. That believers are to be
sanctified wholly,
subsequent to regeneration, through faith in the
Lord Jesus Christ.
7. That the Holy Spirit bears
witness to the new birth,
and also to the entire sanctification of believers.
8. That our Lord will return,
the dead will be raised,
and the final judgment will take place.
