Love God
Love All People
Love In Action
The Brighton Nazarene Church is a community of people developing a relationship with Jesus Christ and with each other. We provide a safe place for these two relationships to form and grow. All of our ministry efforts are focused on strengthening these two vital relationships.
Doctrinally
The Church of the Nazarene holds no complicated system of doctrine. In fact, our Manual states: "We would require only such avowals of belief as are essential to Christian experience." It goes on to list these basic beliefs as follows:
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 final 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 surrender to the Lordship of Jesus Christ, subsequent to regeneration.
- That our Lord will return, the dead will be raised and the final judgment will take place.
