WHAT WE BELIEVE

Emmett Nazarene Church is a Christian Church.  Our beliefs are common to Christians around the world.  Here is what we believe...

WE BELIEVE... in one God, who reveals Himself to us as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

WE BELIEVE...  that the Old and New Testament Scriptures, inspired by God, contains all truth necessary to ignite faith and nurture Christian living.

WE BELIEVE... that people are born with a sinful nature, and are basically stuck in sin without the transformational touch of God's grace.

WE BELIEVE... that all who reject God will be separated from Him forever.

WE BELIEVE... that the exchange that Jesus made for our lives, His for ours, is for EVERYONE who repents and believes that Jesus is Lord, regardless of their past.  God gives us freedom and His power to live above the muck of this world.

WE BELIEVE... that believers, through the empowering of God's Spirit, are to be fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.

WE BELIEVE... that the Holy Spirit lets us know that we belong to God, and will stick with us through thick and thin, as we choose to daily follow Him.

WE BELIEVE...  that Jesus Christ will return, the dead will be raised, and all who have given their lives to God will live with Him in heaven forever.

More than anything, we believe that God is with us and He is our HOPE in establishing His Kingdom here on Earth as it is in Heaven. We are passionate about spreading His LOVE and GRACE to all we encounter, helping them to be restored to God's design and His plan for their lives.
