Our Beliefs

The Bible

The original autograph of the 66 Old and New Testament books are the verbally and plenary inspired Word of God and the final authority for faith and life.

The Nature of God

Only one true, eternal and living God, who is God of Israel, is a Spirit, the Creator of all things; co-existent, co-equal, and co-eternal in three distinct Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

The Lord Yeshua Messiah (Jesus Christ)

The Son of God, the Word made flesh, assuming humanity through the virgin birth, fully human and fully God, the only Savior of mankind. He lived, died on the Cross, resurrected, ascended, and will return.

The Demonic Realm

The reality of the Devil and demons who oppose the work and people of God, who was defeated by Messiah at Calvary and is destined for eternal torment in the Lake of Fire with those condemned with him.

Sin

Man’s original sin nature resulting in his alienation from God and total inability to remedy his lost condition. Forgiveness is achieved through repentance and faith in the person and work of Yeshua Messiah.

Salvation

The “new birth” regeneration is achieved through faith in Yeshua Messiah alone. These are redeemed “new creatures” in Messiah who were condemned, but now justified, sanctified, and destined to be glorified.

Body of Messiah

The universal Body of Messiah (The Church) made up of all the supernaturally “born-again” persons, both Jews and Gentiles, becoming “one new man in Yeshua Messiah, of which Messiah is Head. The four-fold mission of the Body of Messiah is to glorify God of Israel, edify believers, evangelize the lost, and enlighten the world. The two Ordinances of the Body of Messiah are Communion and Water Baptism.

Baptism with Holy Spirit

An empowering experience for saved individuals with tongues as the initial physical evidence, but for the purpose of enabling more effective living, witnessing and ministering.

Gifts of the Holy Spirit

The gifts of the Holy Spirit enumerated in the New Testament were intended by God to endure until the second coming of Messiah. The purpose of the gifts is for the exhortation, edification and comfort of the Body of Messiah.

Divine Healing

Healing is a provision of God to the Body of Messiah provided for in the Atonement. If God choose, He may heal directly, as result of unction and prayer by church elders, or through spiritual gifts of healing.

The Second Coming of Yeshua Messiah and Final Events

The premillennial Second Coming of Yeshua Messiah is to rapture His Church and establish His Millennial Kingdom. After 1000 years, Satan is loosed, but then judged forever in the Lake of Fire. Glorified believers will reign with Messiah in a new heaven and earth.

The Resurrection and Eternal State

Those born twice (“born-again”), die once. But those born only once (unconverted), die the “second death”. All will be bodily resurrected, some unto eternal life (in the first resurrection) and others (in the second resurrection) unto eternal death. Those who die in Messiah are in the presence of the Lord awaiting the (first) resurrection. Those who die outside of Messiah, unconverted, will face the Great White Throne judgment and the “second death” in the Lake of Fire.

Israel

We believe God choose the Jewish people as His Bridge of redemption to a sinful world. He made an everlasting and irrevocable covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. It includes the election and perpetuity of Israel as God’s chosen people, the gift of the land of Israel, and the promise of Messiah through whom all families of the earth will be blessed. We believe God initiated the restoration of creation by calling Abraham and his seed to bless the world. The nation of Israel, Abraham’s seed, is a kingdom of priests, a light to the nations, a witness to God’s faithfulness, and a continuing part of God’s program of salvation. We believe all of Israel will be saved through acceptance of Yeshua Messiah.
