Oakland Church of the Nazarene is a Bible-believing Nazarene congregation in the tradition of John Wesley.

We believe —

In one Creator God, who reveals himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; and in the deity of Jesus Christ.

That the Bible is the inspired Word of God.

That all people have sinned and need God’s grace and forgiveness, which is freely available to all through Jesus’ death on the cross.

That God draws us to Himself, but the decision to respond is ours.

That an individual must regret his sins, desire to change, and trust in Christ to receive forgiveness and eternal life.

That as Christians, we need to offer our whole lives to God (the biblical word for this is “sanctification”). When we give ourselves to God in this way, the Holy spirit can fully mold us into being like Christ; His perfect love is reflected in our attitudes and actions.

That the Church is the Body of Christ, carrying out His purposes in the world.

The God can bring healing through a variety of ways, including miracles and medicine.

That Jesus Christ is coming again.

In the sacraments of baptism and Communion (also known as the Lord’s Supper).
