we are a Church of the nazarene
Agreed
Statement of Belief
These are the beliefs Nazarenes hold to be true:
We believe in one God—the
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that the Old and
New Testament Scriptures, given by plenary inspiration, contain all truth
necessary to faith and Christian living.
We believe that man is born
with a fallen nature, and is, therefore, inclined to evil, and that
continually.
We believe that the finally
impenitent are hopelessly and eternally lost.
We believe 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.
We believe that believers
are to be sanctified wholly, subsequent to regeneration, through faith in the
Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe that
the Holy Spirit bears witness to the new birth, and also to the entire
sanctification of believers.
We believe that our Lord
will return, the dead will be raised, and the final judgment will take place.
