STATEMENT OF FAITH
God
-
We believe in One God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Creator of the Universe. (Deuteronomy 6:4)
Messiah
-
We believe that Yeshua (Jesus) is the Messiah of Israel and the Savior of the world (1 John 4:14-15).
-
He is the Embodiment of the Word of God (John 1:14), the Light from the Beginning, the Instrument through which all things were made (John 1:3, Proverbs 8:22-30).
-
We believe in Yeshua’s virginal conception, sinless life, miracles, vicarious and atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension and return to the world to rule from Jerusalem (Revelation 20:6).
Scripture
-
We believe that the Bible, composed of the Tanakh (Older Testament) and the New Testament, is the inspired Word of God. We accept its teachings as the final authority in matters of faith and practice (2 Timothy 2:16-17).
-
We believe that the Torah is still in effect, and will not pass away until heaven and earth pass away (Matthew 5:17).
Salvation
-
We believe salvation is by faith, not by works (Ephesians 2:8). Real faith produces works as a byproduct, through the power of the Holy Spirit (James 2:14-26).
-
We believe the blood of the Messiah provides atonement for all sins. (1 John 2:2)
Israel
-
We reject Replacement Theology (Supersessionism), and believe Israel and the Jewish People are still the Chosen People, and have not been replaced (Jeremiah 33:20), and that to them, were committed the words of God (Romans 3:2)
-
We believe that non-Jewish believers are grafted in through Yeshua (Jesus). (Romans 9-11, Ephesians 2)
-
We believe that the modern state of Israel is the beginning of the fulfillment of prophecy (Hosea 6:2, Isaiah 66:8, Ezekiel 36), in preparation for the return of Yeshua (Jesus).
