Statement of Belief

     The book of Acts holds a special place for us as Messianic believers. We feel that denominations are transitory in nature, as HaShem (God) reveals more and more works among his people. Therefore, we look to the first century Messianic believers as our pattern of what a community of faith should look like. Acts is not just a document of past actions, but a pattern for our present actions. We strive to preach the content of what they preached, live the spiritual lifestyle they lived, see the results they saw, and relate to the community around us the way they did.

     1. We believe that while the entire Bible is the inspired word of HaShem (2 Timothy 3:16), the law and commandments given in the Torah (the first five books of the Bible) were written by the hand of HaShem himself (Exodus 24:12). We believe that these laws and commandments given by HaShem are still relevant today and we are to obey them (Deuteronomy 6:1-9). We consider it a delight to examine and apply Torah to our daily walk (Matthew 5:17). We also believe that the goals of the Torah are to teach us how to live in this world and the world to come (Deuteronomy 12:28).

     2. We believe that Yeshua is the living embodiment of the Torah and is our sin sacrifice. He is our High Priest and intercedes with HaShem on our behalf
(Deuteronomy 18:18, Romans 8:32-34).

     3. We believe that salvation is only through Yeshua and that He died on the execution stake (cross) to bring mankind back to a right relationship with the Father
(Exodus 23:20-22, Hebrews 10:12, Matthew 26:28, John 20:31, Romans 8:3).

     4. We believe that Yeshua was resurrected from the dead to be born again to a living hope in fulfillment of the Tanach so than the One who raised the Messiah Yeshua from the dead will also give life to our mortal bodies (Hosea 6:2, Psalm 16:10, Romans 8:9-11, 1 Peter 1:3-5).

     5. We believe that Yeshua is the Messiah promised to Israel in the Hebrew Scriptures (John 4:26, Mark 14:61-62) and He is HaShem manifest in the flesh (John 1:1-3, John 8:58). We believe that HaShem has manifested Himself to humans in many ways but that He remains Echad (One) (Deuteronomy 6:4). We also believe that the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) was sent to minister to us, to strengthen our walk, and to testify about Yeshua (John 14:16, 26, 15:26).

     6. We believe that we are to observe HaShem's appointed times and festivals, including the weekly Sabbath, as specified in the Torah (Exodus 31:13, Leviticus 23,
Numbers 28:9-31, Deuteronomy 16:1-17).

     7. We believe that Jews and Gentiles are in the process of being joined together, united under both the Torah and Yeshua (Isaiah 4:1-2, Ezekiel 37:11-28, Romans
11:26, Romans 11:17-22, Ephesians 2:14-15, Colossians 3:10-11).

 
     8. We believe that the admonition found in Isaiah to "reason together" (Isaiah 1:18) is two-fold. First, HaShem wants our relationship with Him to be close and personal so that we can talk with Him as a friend who sticks closer than a brother (Proverbs 18:24). Second, we are aware that people are at different points in their spiritual walk and scriptures take on new meaning as our knowledge expands and our faith deepens. As a group of people who seek the truth, we believe that we too can "reason together" in an open, respectful and welcoming manner, knowing that the truth of HaShem's mysteries will be revealed to us in His time.
