As a member of the worldwide church of the Nazarene...
WE BELIEVE in one God—the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
WE BELIEVE that the Old and New Testament Scriptures are inspired by God and contain all the truth necessary to faith and Christian living.
WE BELIEVE that , without a redeeming God, we are all hopelessly and eternally lost.
WE BELIEVE that Jesus Christ, through his death and resurrection, has atoned for the sin of the whole human race; and that whoever repents and believes on the Lord Jesus Christ is made right with God, is given new life, and is saved from the dominion of sin. Sometimes this is called “being saved.”
WE BELIEVE that, after being “saved,” believers should submit themselves fully to the Lordship of Jesus, growing in grace and [becoming like Jesus]. Sometimes this is called being “entirely sanctified.”
WE BELIEVE that the Holy Spirit confirms in our spirit that we have been forgiven, that we belong to God, and that we are living in obedience to Him.
WE BELIEVE that our Lord will return, the dead will be raised, and the final judgment will take place.
