Eight Agreed Statements
These are the beliefs Nazarenes hold to be true.
They are common to Christians world–wide:
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.
