Canonization of the Ketuvim Netzarim

Today the International Nazarene has taken the important step of officially canonizing the following books of the Ketuvim Netzarim. This should not be construed to mean that in the past we have not regarded these books as canonical, but it seemed appropriate that a Nazarene authority should officially declare these books as canon rather than appealing to any authority from the Roman Catholic Councils of Nicaea or Trent.

It is important to note that the Beit Din considered and dismissed Monte Judah’s arguments against the authority of the book of Hebrews.

THE INTERNATIONAL NAZARENE BEIT-DIN

THE INTERNATIONAL NAZARENE BEIT-DIN The International Nazarene Beit Din is a body of Nazarene Zakenim ("Elders") formed in 1996 in accordance with the Torah (Dt. 16:18; Ex. 18:19-26). The Beit Din exists as a Rosh Beit Din (Head Beit Din) to resolve halachic issues and other matters scripturally assigned to the beit din. The beit din system is both the biblical way and the Jewish way for Nazarene Judaism to establish halacha and govern itself. The International Nazarene Beit Din operates in the biblical tradition of the ancient Nazarene Beit Din headed by Ya'akov HaTzadik (James the Just) (see Acts 15). It is our hope that the International Nazarene Beit Din will be helpful to Nazarenes everywhere as we work together to reestablish first century Nazarene halacha and endeavor to the unity of the body in the bond of peace.

Yeshua’s Conviction Overturned

Yeshua’s Conviction Overturned We, the International Nazarene Beit Din find the following errors in the trial of  Yeshua (“Jesus”) of Nazareth: 1. Defendant's trial was held at night. The Mishna clearly states that a capitol trial may not be held at night (m.San. 4:1) 2. Defendant was remanded to Rome for sentencing immediately. The Mishna requires sentencing to be delayed by one day in order for the judges to properly consider the case. (m.San. 5:5) 3. The trial was overseen by Caiphas.   Caiphas was appointed in 18 CE by the Roman procurator who preceded Pilate, Valerius Gratus. The Torah directs that a High Priest serves for life, however, the preceding High Priest was still alive when Caiphas took office. Because Caiphas was improperly installed in the office of High Priest, his rulings were and are invalid. Due to these errors in the original trial, the International Nazarene Beit Din rules that Defendant is entitled posthumously to a new trial. T...

WNAE Statement of Faith

WNAE Statement of Faith PREFACE This "Statement of Faith" is meant only as a basic statement of faith and is not intended to be a "creed" or canon.  It is not to be viewed as having the authority of Scripture. This statement is given primarily for these reasons: To clarify some issues about which we have been misrepresented. To answer the many requests we have received for such a statement. To set at ease those who have concerns that we stand for certain apostate theologies. To create an understanding of common ground to which our affiliates hold. Above all our beliefs must be: Big enough to include all the facts. Open enough to be tested. And flexible enough to change. I. YHWH We believe that YHWH is Echad (one). We believe that YHWH reveals Himself in the K'numeh or Gaunin of Avi/Abba (Father/Daddy), the Memra (Word), and the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit). II. BIBLE We believe that the Bible, which includes both the Tanakh [...
