| Statement of Beliefs We believe that non-Jews have been grafted into the Olive Tree of Israel according to Romans 11:18 and Acts 15 and together with our Jewish believers, have become One New Man in Yeshua-Ephesians 2:12-14. That prior to being grafted in, non-Jews were without God and Yeshua in this world. We believe that non-Jews owe a ton of gratitude to the Jewish people for preserving the Word of God and setting themselves apart unto God so the Messiah will be born from them providing the World with Salvation-Romans 3:1-2, Romans 9:4-5. We believe that there's a special blessing on non-Jews who bless the Jewish people-Genesis 12:3, and Psalm 122:6.We categorically repudiate and reject the demonic teaching of Replacement Theology or that the so called “Church”; has replaced Israel. The Word Israel, is used about 77 times in the new Testament, and never once does it refer to the Church. It always and forever, refers to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. We believe in enlightening all non-Jews to the Jewish roots and Jewish people to their promised Messiah. We believe that God shall judge nations who fail to comfort the Jewish people and partition his land according to Joel 3:1-2, Isaiah 40:1,and Matthew 25:31-46.We believe in One God (Elohim) who is Echad (Unity), and who represents himself in the Abba(Father) Yeshua the son (Jesus) and the Ruach HaKodesh(Holy Spirit)-Genesis 2:24, Deuteronomy 6:4, Proverbs 30:4, Matthew 3:16-17, Matthew 28:19 and 2nd Corinthians 13:14. We believe that both the Tanakh( The First Testament, it is not “OLD” as “ALL SCRIPTURE IS LIVING AND ACTIVE”-HEBREWS 4:12-WHICH WAS THE ONLY SCRIPTURE THEN) and the B'rit Hadasah(The New Testament, rightly, the Testament of the Spirit in our Hearts)-Jeremiah 31:31, are completely and wholly true and fulfilled in Yeshua, the Word of God-Matthew 5:17, John 1:1, and that Yeshua is the Aleph and Tav, the Alpha and Omega, the A and Z of the Word of God-Revelations 1:11-17, and Revelations 21:6. We believe that Yeshua is the prophet spoken of by Moses in Deuteromony 18:15, 18 and the greatest prophet of Israel-Matthew 24. We believe He is the greatest High Priest, and the High Priest of our confession-Hebrews 3:1, and has an eternal High Priest as Priest- King in the line of Melchizedek-Psalm 110:4, and Hebrews 5:10.We believe that Yeshua is the King of Kings, Lord of Lords and Sar Shalom(Prince of Peace)-Isaiah 9:6, Revelations 19:16. We believe in the atoning blood of Yeshua-Leviticus 17:11, Isaiah 53:10, and Hebrews 9:22. We believe that Yeshua is the only way to Abba-Father-John 14:6, that there's no other name by which we can saved, delivered, healed, fulfilled and receive eternal life-Acts 4:12, 1st Timothy 2:5. We believe that Yeshua alone is the life-giver who gives lifeabundantly and eternally. John 14:6, John 10:10, John 3:16. We believe that Yeshua was the seed of the Woman prophesied in Genesis 3:15, was fully human and divine while on earth, Colossians 2:9, was born of a virgin: Isaiah 9:7, the Mashiach Ben Yoseph in Isaiah 53, as the Suffering Servant and Coming back as Mashiach Ben David at the end of this present time span-Revelations 19:11-16, Revelations 5:5. We believe that both Covenants were inspired by the Holy Spirit, according to 2nd Peter 1:21, 1st Timothy 3:16, and 2nd Samuel 23:2. We believe that every human born is born of sin and needs a Savior, as Adam and Eve didn’t have any children until after they had sinned. David said in Psalm 51:5: that his mother conceived him in sin. See 1st Kings 8:46, Ecclesiastes 7:20, Proverbs 20:9, Romans 3:23 and that without forgiveness by the blood of Yeshua, everyone is doomed for the lake of fire-Romans 6:23, John 3:36, Revelations 21:15. We believe that every human being has an adversary in the Devil whose desire is to steal, kill and destroy-John 10:10. We believe that through the Blood of Yeshua, we have overcome the devil-Revelations 12:10, Luke 10:17-19. 1st John 4:4, 1st John 5:18 and that the gates of Hell cannot prevail against us-Matthew 16:18 and that Satan and all those who rebel against God and Yeshua shall be in the Lake of Fire-Revelations 20:10, 14, and, 15. We believe in Mikvah (water baptism by whole body immersion) according to Matthew 28:19, and that all believers should be baptized as evidence of their faith in Yeshua, and the symbolism of the death of the old nature and the birth of the new-Mark 16:15-16, Romans 6: 4, Ephesians 4:22-24, Acts 8:36-39. We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit(Ruach HaKodesh), according to Acts 2:4, evidenced by the speaking of other tongues, Joel 2:28, Acts 2:1-4, Acts 10:44-48, Acts 11:15, Acts 19:6. 1st Corinthians 12, 1st Corinthians 14, Mark 16:17.We believe that the gifts of tongue for the edifying of the corporate body of Yeshua in 1st Corinthians 12, is different from the gift of tongue for personal prayer and edification stated in 1st Corinthians 14. We believe that the Holy Spirit is our advocate, and counselor and convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and Judgment-John 14: 16,26, and John 16:8.We believe in the operation of the gifts and fruit of the Holy Spirit according to 1st Corinthians 12, and Galatians 5: 22. We believe in deliverance from demons, casting away of demons or evil spirits, through the power of Yeshua according to Mark 1:25 (Jesus first miracle in Mark's gospel), and verses 32-34, Mark 16:17, and Luke 10:17-20. We do not believe that believers in Yeshua are possessed by demons, but that certain areas of their lives can be influenced by demonic spirits. We believe in fasting according to Matthew 6:16, and that Yeshua expected his followers to practice fasting. We believe in Salvation by Faith only, and faith evidenced by our works-Ephesians 2:11-12, James 2: 17, James 1:22, and Galatians 5:25. We believe in the rapture of believers of Yeshua, according to 1st Thessalonians 4:16-17 and 2nd Corinthians 15:23, to be Yeshua forever. We believe that when were are raptured, we will as believers be judged for rewards for the things done while we were in the body, 2nd Corinthians 5:10. We shall celebrate the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, with our bridegroom, Yeshua-Revelations 19:7.We believe that the judgment of the rest of the human race shall take place before the Great White Throne. Those whose names are written in Yeshua's Book of Life will be heaven and those whose names are not in, will be thrown into the Lake of Fire with the devil and his angels-Revelations 20:11-15. We believe that the Land of Israel belongs to the Jewish Nation deeded to them by God-Genesis 15:18-21, and that Jerusalem is the capital of the Jewish nation. We believe that the time is coming when the remnant of his brethren, the Jewish Nation, would recognize him as their brother, according to Zechariah 12:10, and acknowledge him as their Messiah, just as the Sons of Jacob recognized Joseph as their brother Genesis 45:3, though they thought before that he was Egyptian. We believe Yeshua is waiting for the time when his brethren the Jewish people will say to him:-Baruch Haba Bashem Adonai-Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord-Psalm 118:26, Matthew23:29 and Matthew 21:9. We believe that we are to keep the Feasts of the Lord, according to Leviticus 23, and that these feasts are not for the sake of righteousness but as having been fulfilled in the Spring Festivals in Mashiach Yeshua and as ”rehearsals” waiting for its final fulfillment in the Fall Festivals by Yeshua-Hebrews 10:1; 9:9, and Leviticus 23:2. We believe that Saturday is the Sabbath of God, commencing Friday evening to Saturday evening, in line with a day in scripture- Genesis 1:5. God sanctified, rested and refreshed himself on the Shabbath and so should we-Genesis 2:1-3, Exodus 20:9-11. We believe that the Sabbath was never changed to Sunday and that as the practice of Yeshua was, that Shabbath should be the day set aside for God-Luke 4:16. We must say that we do not judge brethren who worship on Sunday or any other day, but that day is not the day biblically set aside for the Worship of God. The tradition among the early disciples was to go to spend time with their families on Friday evening, go to the Synagogue or temple on Shabbath and met in their homes in the evening of Saturday for fellowship. If you need to know more about what we believe, please contact us. May the Lord Bless You and Keep You, May the Lord Make his Face to Shine on You and Be Gracious to You, May the Lord Lift up His Countenance on You and Give You His Shalom, through the Sar Shalom (Prince of Peace) Yeshua HaMaschiach.
