Bible
The Bible consist of the Tanakh (Holy Scriptures) and the writings commonly known as the Brit Hadasha (New Testament) is the only infallible and authoritative word of God.
God
We believe that the Shema, “Hear O Israel the Lord our God, the Lord is One” teaches that God is One (Echad), a united one, eternally existent in plural ones Elohim (God). We believe that He is a personal God who created us and that He exists forever as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Ruach Hakodesh), and He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob We believe that Yeshua (Jesus) is the Word of God in the flesh, born of a Virgin through the Ruach Hakodesh, He was resurrected, He sits on the right hand of God, He is our L-rd and Savior, and He will return to the earth.
Man
We believe that man was created in the image of God, but through disobedience man fell from his first state and became separated from God. Therefore all men are born with a sinful nature. We believe that man’s only hope for redemption (salvation) is through the atonement made by the Messiah, resulting in regeneration by the Ruach Hakoddesh.
Messianic Judaism
We recognize that the Jewish people that put their faith in the Messiah of Israel, Yeshua (Jesus), continue to be Jewish. The non-Jewish individuals who put their faith in Yeshua, are grafted in the Jewish olive tree of faith becoming spiritual sons and daughters of Abraham.
We observe and celebrate the Festivals of the Lord given to Israel by God, and we believe that salvation has always come by faith. We recognize that the body of believers under the New Covenant is composed by Jews and non-Jews who have received Yeshua the Messiah as the promised Redeemer. The wall of partition has been removed and now we worship the God of Israel together.
