Statement of Beliefs

1) We believe in one God, as He was revealed Himself in the Scriptures. “Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is One.”
(KJV Deuteronomy 6:4) We believe that the intended meaning of this word “One” is found in the original
Hebrew text, which used the word “echad” and means “a composite unity.”

2) We believe that Yeshua (Jesus) is the Son of God, the Messiah (Who’s the Christ), the Eternal One in Whom all
the fullness of the deity dwells in the bodily form, and who is the Word who became flesh and dwelt among
us, and whose glory we beheld, the glory of the uniquely begotten Son of God, full of grace and truth.

3) We believe that the Spirit of God comforts, teaches, leads, indwells and empowers all whom He regenerates.

4) We believe that the Bible, both the Tanakh (Old Testament) and the Brit Chadasha (New Covenant), is the only
inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God. (II Timothy 3:16-17)

5) We believe that all have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23)

6) We believe that Yeshua’s death and resurrection accomplished the atonement for all who would place their
faith in Him. Whoever trusts in God, in His work alone, is made a new creation in Messiah, indwelt by the Spirit
of God, and is transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of His own Son. (Ephesians 2:8-9;
Romans 5 & 6)

7) We believe in the community of God’s covenants with the physical people of Israel according to Jeremiah
31:35-36 and parallel passages. Part of the fulfillment of these covenants is the physical return of the people
of Israel to their Promised Land. (Deuteronomy 30)

8) We believe salvation is by faith through the grace of God alone, and not by human efforts. One may not earn,
merit or keep this eternal salvation by his own efforts. A new creation is the work of God alone. (Ephesians
2:8-10; Romans 8:29-39)

9) We believe in the spiritual unity of equality of all believers in Messiah Yeshua. (Ephesians 2:11-22)

10) We believe that everyone who trusts in Yeshua is grafted in to the “olive tree.” While this does not make them
Jewish, they are granted the privilege of having written upon their hearts, as participants of the New
Covenant, God’s laws. (Romans 11:11-24; Jeremiah 31:33)

11) We believe in the immersion in living waters done in the name of Adonai Yeshua HaMashiach.

12) We do not hold to or believe in the following: “Two House” teaching as it is a form of replacement theology,
that any nation is made up of any one of the lost tribes, in trying to determine which lost tribe you come from
as our identity must be in Messiah, the “Sacred Name” movement, sighting of the new moon or by anyone’s
personal barley crop to determine the Biblical calendar as they have no authority. We do believe that the Jews
in Israel are made up of every tribe.
