1. We believe the Bible (both Old and New
Covenants) to be the divinely inspired Word of God; it is our source and
final authority. (II Timothy 3:16; I Peter 1:23-25; Hebrews 4:12).
2. We believe the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac
and the God of Jacob to be the only living and true God. He is an
eternal tri-unity of three co-equal and divine personalities: God the
Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. He is the Creator of heaven
and earth. (Deuteronomy. 6:4; Genesis. 1:1; Matthew 3:16-17).
3. We believe Yeshua Ha Mashiach (Jesus the
Messiah) to be the only begotten Son of God who became God incarnate.
He was both fully God and fully man, conceived by the Holy Spirit and
born of the Jewish virgin Miriam. (I John 4:9; Matthew 1:20-23; Luke
1:27-32).
4. We believe Yeshua, by virtue of His miraculous
birth and sinless life, voluntarily gave Himself as the perfect atoning
sacrifice for the sins of Israel and all mankind and by His vicarious
death made it possible for all to be reconciled to God. (Romans 5:8;
Galatians 1:4; Hebrews 9:26).
5. We believe after His death on the tree, the Lord
Yeshua on the third day rose from the dead and ascended into heaven,
where He is seated at the right hand of the Father, as our Intercessor
and Advocate, the only mediator between God and man. (II Corinthians
5:15; Matthew 28; Mark 16; Luke 24).
6. We believe the Lord Yeshua will soon descend from
heaven to gather (rapture) the true believers, those who have accepted
Yeshua as the Messiah, unto Himself. (I Thessalonians 4; Rev. 20:6).
7. We believe all men are sinners by nature and in
need of salvation, which can only be accomplished by confession in the
Messiah, by God’s grace and through His atoning blood, death and
resurrection.
(Romans 3:23-25; Romans 10:9-10; Ephesians 2:8-9; I
Peter 1:1819).
8. We believe that every follower of Yeshua should
seek the infilling of the Holy Spirit as a definite and distinct
experience, that they might be endued with power for the Messiah’s
service. (Acts 1:4-5 & 8; Acts 2:1-18 & 38-39). However, this is not a
prerequisite for salvation.
9. We believe disunity, Proverbs 6:16-19, with
others in the congregation is detrimental and shall be disciplined
according to Matthew 18:15-18, with the final decision left to the
spiritual leader and board.
10. We believe in tithing and love offerings to
support the work of God. One-tenth is the measure of one’s tithe.
(Leviticus chapter 27; Malachi 3:10; Luke 6:38).
11. We believe in a literal heaven and hell. (II
Peter 3:13; Revelation . 21:1-2; Psalm 9:17; Matthew 10:28).
12. We believe in the following observances:
Mikveh (Baptism) Romans 6:3-4; Matthew
28:19
Communion Luke 22:19; I Corinthians 11:26
Dedication of Children I Samuel 1:26-28;
Mark 10:15-16
Matrimony Matthew 19:4-6; Ephesians 5:31
Anointing with Oil Exodus 30:25; James
5:14
Laying on of Hands Acts 6:6; Hebrews
6:1-2
