What We Believe

   We believe in God the
Father Almighty,
    Maker of heaven and earth;

    And in Jesus Christ,
His only Son, our Lord:
    who was conceived by the
Holy Spirit,
    born of the Virgin Mary,
    suffered under Pontius Pilate,
    was crucified, dead, and buried;
    He descended into hades;
    the third day He rose again from the dead;
    He ascended into heaven,
    and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
    from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.

    We believe in the Holy Spirit,
    the holy Church universal,
    the communion of saints,
    the forgiveness of sins,
    the resurrection of the body,
    and the life everlasting.

    Amen.

The Church of the Nazarene is a global denomination in the Wesleyan-Holiness tradition. We believe that God
empowers us to live a holy life and continually fills individuals and the church with love for God and for all people.
