Doctrine
Every Nation adheres to basic Evangelical Christian beliefs and is a member of the National Association of Evangelicals.
Foundational core beliefs also include: salvation by grace – that is, that a person receives salvation by the grace of God alone (sola gratia) through faith alone (sola fide); the supremacy of Christ and Scripture (solus Christus and sola Scriptura); the belief in the Trinity – that is, that there is one God, existent in three persons: the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit; and that everything they do is for the glory of God (soli deo gloria).
However, like many non-denominational organizations, when it comes to issues that Every Nation considers non-fundamental or non-essential such as positions on eschatology the practice of its Bible school, ENLI, is to present the evidence and arguments for the differing theological positions but allow the individual to decide for himself or herself which position he or she will choose.

Famous quotes containing the word doctrine:
“The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... Equality for equals, inequality for unequalsMthat would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, Never make equal what is unequal.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“The doctrine that all men are, in any sense, or have been, at any time, free and equal, is an utterly baseless fiction.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (182595)
“Every doctrine has a theory of the beginning.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
