We believe in One God – the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, who reveals Himself as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19; Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7; Ephesians 2:18, 4:4-6; II Corinthians 13:14)
We believe the Sh’ma, that the greatest commandment is to love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength. (Deuteronomy 6:5; Matthew 22:37; Mark 12:30; Luke 10:27)
We believe the words of Yeshua that the second greatest commandment is to love others as ourselves and that there are no commandments greater than these. (Leviticus 19:18; Luke 10:27)
We believe in Yeshua ha Mashiach, Jesus, the Messiah, who is God/Deity, and the Savior of the world, the Deliverer of Zion and the King of kings and Lord of lords. (John 1:29; Romans 11:26; Isaiah 45:17; Jeremiah 23:6; Revelation 19:16)
We believe in the Holy Spirit, Who is God manifest in those who believe in Him and Who is actively expressing the gifts of God in the earth today through signs, wonders, and miracles. (John 14:15-20; Genesis 1:1-2)
We believe that Yeshua is God incarnate, Who came from heaven to earth, lived a sinless life, preached the Good News of redemption through blood – His blood – healed every kind of affliction, and set captives free from Hell. (John 1; II Corinthians 5:21; Luke 4:18-19; Isaiah 61:1-3)
We believe Yeshua died on a tree, crucified at the hands of sinful men and that He rose from the dead on the third day conquering the power of death for everyone who puts their trust in Him. (Luke 24:45-46; I Corinthians 15:4; Matthew 16:21; Acts 2:24)
We believe that anyone who confesses their sin, repents of their sin, asks forgiveness of their sin, professes and believes Yeshua is Lord and God and commits their life to Him will have eternal life, just as He promised. (Acts 2:38-39; I John 1:9; Psalm 32:5; Psalm 51:2; Hebrews 10:22; Micah 7:18-20)
We believe that there is no other way to eternal life whether a person is Jew or Gentile, than through the blood of Yeshua.(Acts 4:12; Hebrews 10:19-25; Hebrews 9:11-15; Isaiah 53)
We believe that God’s Word – the entire Tenach, both original and new Covenants – is true and that it is the divine guideline for living a life of faith and through it is revealed the mysteries of life and redemption. (Jeremiah 31:31-33; II Timothy 3:16-17)
We believe the Word of God reveals God Himself through His covenant with Israel and the Jewish people, that the promise He made to Abraham is even now being fulfilled in this world – He promised to bless Abraham and that through this covenant all peoples (nations/the Gentiles) on earth will be blessed. (Genesis 12:1-3; Acts 3:25; Galatians 3:8; Genesis 28:14)
We believe that God’s covenant with Israel and the Jewish people is an everlasting covenant and that He expanded that covenant to include all nations, the Gentiles, when they put their faith in Him. (Genesis 12:1-3; Genesis 27:29; Hosea 2:23; Romans 9:25; I Peter 2:10; Romans 10:19)
We believe it is God’s expressed will that Jew and Gentile become “One New Man”, that is, that they will become as one in their love for God and each other and by this He will be glorified. (Ephesians 2:15; Romans 11:25-29)
We believe that the identity of Jew and Gentile are distinct throughout the Scripture and that God did not take away His promise to faithful Israel or remove His covenant or replace them with Gentile believers. Both Jew and Gentile who believe and put their hope – all their heart, soul, mind, and strength – in God are His covenant people. (Romans 9-11; Ephesians 2:15)
We believe that Israel’s distinct role is to be God’s banner to the nations and that He reveals Himself through His dealings with this land and the Jewish people, even in our day. (Isaiah 11:10-12; Isaiah 5:26; John 12:32)
We believe that Yeshua will physically and literally return to the Mt. of Olives in the Land of Israel and that all the words of the prophets concerning the wrath of God being poured out on the nations who come against Israel will be fulfilled.(Zechariah 14:4; Psalm 102:16; Zechariah 8:3)
We believe that in the last day, the Lord will restore all things and that Elohim (Father, Son and Spirit) and the Kingdom of heaven will come to earth. We believe that God and the Lamb, Yeshua ha Mashiach who is forever the Root and Offspring of David of the tribe of Judah, will be worshiped and exalted throughout eternity from His royal throne in the New Jerusalem. (Rev. 22:1)
We believe that the increase of His ruler-ship and His government will have no end. (Isaiah 9:7)
