Who are we?  And what is our purpose?

We, as a body of believers in Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), endeavoring to fulfill God's commands by teaching all nations to observe all things that He has commanded us, affirm the following goals as the purpose of our ministry:

• Teach men the precepts of God contained in the Bible, both Older and Newer Covenants, from a Hebraic perspective;

• Facilitate the spiritual growth of all believers, both Jew and non-Jew, by making available instructional materials, including but not limited to, printed literature, audio/visual media, and ritual articles consistent with our statement of faith, on a local, national, and international basis;

• And provide for the physical needs of the world's poor and needy.

Statement of Faith

• We believe that the Bible, both the Old Covenant and the New Covenant, is the inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God (1 Thes.2:13; 2 Tim. 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21).
• We believe in ONE God, as He has revealed Himself in the Holy Scriptures (Deut. 6:4; Mark 12:29).
• We believe that Jesus Christ (Yeshua) is the Son of God; the Messiah; the Eternal One in whom all the fullness of deity dwells in bodily form; the Word who became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory of the uniquely begotten Son of God, full of grace and truth (John 1:1-14; Col. 2:9).
• We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ (Yeshua) and His virgin birth (Isa. 9:6; Isa 7:14; Matt. 1:18-25); in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood (Isa. 53; Dan. 9:24-27; Rom. 3:21-31; Heb. 9-10); in His bodily resurrection (Zech.12:10; Zech. 14; Matt. 28); and in His personal return in power and glory (Dan. 7:9-14; Matt. 26:57-64; Rev. 1:1-18).  We believe that Jesus Christ (Yeshua) is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and that no one comes to the Father except through Him (John 14:6; John 6:29; 1 John 5:11).
• We believe that man is a created being made in the image and likeness of God, but through Adam’s transgression and fall, sin came into the world for “all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”  As it is written, “there is none righteous, no not one.”  Jesus (Yeshua), the Messiah and Son of God, was manifested to undo the work of the devil and gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God (Rom. 3:10,23; Rom. 5:14; 1 John 3:8).  Salvation is a gift of God to man, separate from works and the Torah, and is made operative by grace and faith in Jesus (Yeshua) producing works acceptable to God.  One may not earn, merit, or keep his eternal salvation by his own efforts.  A new creation is the work of God alone (Eph. 2:8-9; Rom. 5,6).
• We believe that the Torah (the five books of Moses) is a comprehensive summary of God’s foundational teachings and instructions as found in both the new and older covenants (Ex. 19,20; Deut. 5; Jer. 31:31-34; Matt. 5:17-19; Heb. 8:10).  Therefore, we encourage all believers, both Jew and non-Jew alike, to affirm, embrace, and practice these foundational laws and ways as clarified through the life of the Messiah (Matt. 5:17-19; 1 Cor. 7:19; Rev. 14:12).
• The Bible teaches that without holiness, no man can see God.  We believe in the doctrine of sanctification as a definite, yet progressive, work of grace commencing at the time of regeneration and continuing until the consummation of salvation (1 Thes. 5:23; 2 Pet. 3:18; Heb. 12:14).
• The baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire is a gift from God promised by Jesus (Yeshua) to all believers and is received subsequent to the new birth (Matt. 3:11; John 14:16-17; Acts 2:38-39).  We believe in the operation of and embrace all the gifts of the Holy Spirit as enumerated in the Word of God.
• We believe that Jewish and non-Jewish people who trust in Jesus (Yeshua) are grafted into the olive tree of Israel, which grants them the privilege of following the Torah (God’s teaching and instruction), having it written upon their hearts as participants of the New Covenant.  Thus, all Israel will be saved (Jer. 31:31-34; Rom. 11:11-26).
• We believe in the resurrection of both the wicked and the righteous.  Those who have trusted in Jesus (Yeshua) will be resurrected unto life and those who die without having believed in Jesus (Yeshua) will be resurrected to experience the eternal wrath of God (John 5:19-29;Rom. 1:18; 1 Cor. 15; Rev.20,21).
