"The Articles of Faith of the Church of the Nazarene are not intended to end debate, nor deliver pre-established answers to every question. Rather, these articles of faith offer us a grammar, a way to go on with the confidence of a particular set of convictions, convictions which are capable of enriching life." Henry Spaulding
We Believe: Engaging the Doctrinal Heritage of the Church of the Nazarene is a monograph by Dr. Henry Spaulding that provides a detailed study of the sixteen articles of faith contained in the Manual of the Church of the Nazarene. The work argues that doctrinal language is essential for an individual’s spiritual journey, as it clearly defines basic faith affirmations regarding God, Grace, Sin, and Holiness.
Spaulding posits that these doctrines provide a historical picture of what the church has believed, taught, and confessed, helping members understand the rationale behind their beliefs. The monograph is designed to address the common interest in doctrinal clarity within churches, emphasizing that doctrine informs the understanding of salvation and Christian living.
