The Catechism of the New Apostolic Church (CNAC) is the doctrinal reference book on the New Apostolic profession. It is the normative and most systematic description of the Church’s doctrine to date.
Doctrinal Reference Book
The Catechism contains the broad strokes of principal statements of the Old and New Testaments, common basic convictions of all Christians, and the specific features of the New Apostolic faith.
The Catechism of the New Apostolic Church serves to deepen personal knowledge, provide a standard for faith life, and support dialogue with other denominations. After all, despite all differences of interpretation, the New Apostolic Church has great respect for other churches and their doctrinal statements.
