We Welcome You To Our Church
What we believe...
The Core Doctrinal Tenets (Articles of Faith) as found in the Manual of the Church of the Nazarene:
- The Triune God: Belief in one eternal God existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- Jesus Christ: Belief that Jesus is fully God and fully man, born of a virgin, died for our sins, and rose again.
- The Holy Spirit: Belief that the Holy Spirit is ever-present and active in the world, convicting people of sin and empowering believers.
- The Holy Scriptures: The Bible is the inspired Word of God and contains all truth necessary for faith and Christian living.
- Sin, Original and Personal: Recognition that humanity is fallen (Original Sin) and that individuals also commit personal acts of sin.
- Atonement: Jesus’ death was for the whole human race; anyone who repents and believes can be saved.
- Prevenient Grace: God’s grace goes before us, enabling us to respond to Him even before we are saved.
- Repentance: A sincere turning away from sin toward God.
- Justification, Regeneration, and Adoption: When we believe, God forgives us (Justification), gives us new life (Regeneration), and brings us into His family (Adoption).
- Entire Sanctification: This is the distinctive Nazarene belief. It is a “second work of grace” where the Holy Spirit cleanses the heart from original sin and empowers the believer to love God and others fully.
- The Church: The body of believers called to worship together and spread the Gospel.
- Baptism: A sacrament signifying the new birth; the church practices both infant and believer’s baptism.
- The Lord’s Supper: A sacrament of communion open to all who have faith in Christ.
- Divine Healing: Belief that God can and does heal the sick, though they also support the use of medical science.
- Second Coming of Christ: Belief that Jesus will return, the dead will be raised, and a final judgment will occur.
- Resurrection, Judgment, and Destiny: Every person will face judgment; the righteous will have eternal life, and the unrepentant will be eternally lost.
Remember, LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you, LORD, are good.
