We BELIEVE...

In one God - the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.


That the Old and New Testament Scriptures, given by plenary inspiration, 

contain all truth necessary to faith and Christian living. 


That man is born with a fallen nature, and is, therefore, inclined to evil, and that continually. 


That the finally impenitent are hopelessly and eternally lost. 


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. 


That believers are to be sanctified wholly, subsequent to regeneration, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. 


That the Holy Spirit bears witness to the new birth, and also to the entire sanctification of believers. 


That our Lord will return, the dead will be raised, and the final judgment will take place.

OUR ROOTS

The Church of the Nazarene is a Protestant Christian church in the Wesleyan-Holiness tradition, tracing its roots to an anniversary date of 1908. It was founded to spread the message of scriptural holiness (Christlike living) across the lands. Today the Church of the Nazarene is located in 156 world areas.


The Church of the Nazarene is a Great Commission church. Our mission is to make Christlike disciples in the nations. We believe that God offers to everyone forgiveness, peace, joy, purpose, love, meaning in life, and the promise of heaven when life is over by entering and experiencing a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. We are called to take this message to people everywhere.


The Church of the Nazarene is also a holiness church. We believe that Christians can experience a deeper level of life in which there is victory over sin, power to witness and serve, and a richer fellowship with God, all through the infilling of the Holy Spirit.
