WHAT WE BELIEVE

WE BELIEVE:

  1. In the inspiration of all the Scriptures of both Old and New Testaments as the Word of God and that they are the final authority in faith and life, and the New Testament Scriptures, representing the final revelation and counsel of God, and constitute the final counsel in all matters.

  2. In the one God, of Israel, and of all existence, eternally existent in the Father, the Son, and The Holy Spirit.

  3. In Messiah, the Son, the Word, by His atoning death and resurrection, the Mediator between man and God, the Redeemer of Israel and all peoples, Jesus/Yeshua, the Messiah, salvation.

  4. In the presence and work of the Holy Spirit in the fellowship and lives all of all true believers.

  5. That in choosing to turn away from God, man has fallen into a state of sinfulness and guilt from which he needs to be saved, and from which he is unable to save himself.

  6. That the one and only hope, answer, and salvation for all has been given in the death and resurrection of Messiah, in which we have been given forgiveness, peace, and everlasting life.

  7. That there is one way of salvation given to man, in the atonement of God in Messiah, that this is a free gift, and not attained by good works, yet which leads to good works, a free gift given to all who will truly accept, believe, and receive it, turning completely to Jesus/Yeshua, trusting Him with their lives in all things, and personally receiving Him into their hearts.

  8. That true salvation brings a new birth, a new heart, cleansing, renewing, freedom, the indwelling of God's Spirit, and the power of repentance, to turn from sin and to live a new life of love, joy, peace, faithfulness, holiness, and righteousness.

  9. In the universal gathering, unity, and fellowship of all who have received salvation, born of the Spirit in Messiah Jesus/Yeshua, and called to fulfill the Great Commission, to spread the Gospel to all peoples, Jew and Gentile, to all unreached peoples of the world.

  10. That God has not forgotten, rejected, or replaced His calling and promises to the flesh and blood children of Israel, and that He will literally and physically bring them all to pass.

  11. In the physical, literal, and historical return of Messiah to the earth and to Israel to save, restore, judge, usher in God's Kingdom, and reign upon the throne of David.

  12. In the physical, literal, and historical resurrection of the dead, the unsaved and unjust to everlasting separation from God, the eternal judgment of hell, and the saved and just to everlasting fellowship with God, eternal life, joy, and peace, heaven. And that the life of God was given for all, and the heart of God is that all would choose salvation and not perish.
