Fundamentals of Our Faith

We believe in the Creator of heaven and earth whose name is Yahweh.  "Hear O Israel, Yahweh our God, Yahweh is One" (Deut. 6:4).  The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are united in God (Is 11:1-2, Lk. 4:18-21).

We believe in the Scriptures, both the Old and New Testament in their original, inspired text.  They are the inspired and inerrant Word of Yahweh Almighty.  They alone are the divine and final authority in determining all doctrinal truths (2 Tim. 3:16).

We believe that Yeshua of Nazareth is the Messiah, God made manifest in the flesh (1 Tim. 3:16).  He was born of a virgin (Luke 1:34) and lived a sinless life.  He died for us an an atoning sacrifice for our sins (1 John 4:10), was resurrected from the dead (1 Cor. 15:4), and has ascended to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19).  Yeshua will return physically as King of Kings and Lord of Lords to reign over the earth (Zech. 14, Acts 1:9-11, and Rev. 19:11-16).

We believe that all have sinned and need the salvation, which is provided only through Yeshua and by the grace of Yahweh (Ps. 14:1-3, Rom. 3-23).

We believe that the Holy Spirit dwells all believers to lead, guide, teach, comfort, and empower us to live a righteous life (Jn. 14:26, 2 Tim. 1:7, 1 Cor. 14:26).

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and unsaved.  The redeemed to everlasting joy in the presence of Yahweh, and the lost to eternal damnation and separation from Yahweh (John 5: 28-29 and Revelation 20:11-15).

We believe the Torah of Yahweh is the instruction of a loving and gracious Father to His children.  It is the perfect law that gives us liberty (Ps. 119-44-45, James 2:25-26).  The commandments of Yahweh will not disappear until heaven and earth disappear (Matt. 5:17-20).  We delight in the instruction of Yahweh (Ps. 1:2).  The Torah was not given for salvation.  It is the loving instruction of how a redeemed people should live.  Yeshua kept His Father's commandments and lived in the Father's love.  We are instructed to walk as Yeshua walked (1 John 2:3-6).  We are to obey Yahweh's commandments and to hold to the testimony of Yeshua (Rev. 12:17).
