1The Holy Scriptures
We believe that the Scriptures of the Tanakh and the Apostolic Writings are inspired by God and faithfully bear witness to His character, purposes, commandments, covenants, and salvation in Messiah. They are our final standard for examining doctrine and practice.2 Timothy 3:16–17; Psalm 119:105; 2 Peter 1:20–21
2The One True God
We believe in the one living and eternal God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the Creator of heaven and earth. He alone is worthy of worship. He makes Himself known as Father, through His Son Yeshua the Messiah, and by His Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh).Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 45:5–6; Matthew 28:19
3Yeshua the Messiah
We believe Yeshua (Jesus) is the promised Messiah, the Son of God, the Word through whom all things were made, and the full revelation of the Father. We confess His divine identity and His genuine humanity.John 1:1–3, 14; Colossians 1:15–17; Hebrews 1:1–3
4The Virgin Birth
We believe Yeshua was conceived by the Ruach HaKodesh and born of the virgin Miriam (Mary), in accordance with the testimony of Scripture.Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:18–23; Luke 1:26–35
5His Sinless Life and Temptation
We believe Yeshua lived in faithful obedience to the Father. He was genuinely tested and tempted, yet remained without sin, providing a perfect example and an unblemished offering for us.Hebrews 4:15; 1 Peter 2:21–22; 2 Corinthians 5:21
6His Ministry and Miracles
We believe Yeshua proclaimed the Kingdom of God, taught repentance and righteousness, healed the sick, delivered the oppressed, and performed signs that testified to His identity and the compassion of the Father.Matthew 4:23; Luke 4:18–21; Acts 2:22
7Fulfillment of Prophecy
We believe Yeshua fulfills the promises and prophetic testimony of the Tanakh concerning the Messiah. We read the Scriptures as one coherent witness to God's unfolding redemptive plan.Luke 24:27, 44; Isaiah 53; Micah 5:2
8His Suffering, Death, Burial, and Resurrection
We believe Yeshua willingly suffered and died for our sins, was buried, and was bodily raised on the third day. Through His sacrificial death and resurrection, God offers forgiveness, reconciliation, and victory over sin and death.Isaiah 53:4–6; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Romans 4:25
9His Ascension and Present Ministry
We believe the risen Yeshua ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father, where He serves as our great High Priest and intercedes for His people.Acts 1:9–11; Hebrews 4:14–16; Hebrews 7:25
10His Glorious Return
We believe Yeshua will return personally and gloriously to establish His righteous reign, judge with justice, and bring God's promises to completion. We are called to live in faithfulness and readiness.Matthew 24:30–31; Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11–16
11Salvation by Grace Through Faith
We believe salvation is the gift of God's grace, received through faith in Yeshua the Messiah, not earned by human works. True faith bears fruit in repentance, love, and obedience to God.Ephesians 2:8–10; Romans 10:9–10; James 2:17
12The Ruach HaKodesh
We believe the Holy Spirit convicts, renews, indwells, comforts, teaches, and empowers believers to walk in truth, holiness, and love. The Spirit's work produces fruit consistent with God's character and His Word.John 14:26; Ezekiel 36:26–27; Galatians 5:22–25
13Torah and Holy Living
We believe God's Torah reveals His instruction and His righteous character. We seek to follow His commandments as taught and embodied by Yeshua, not as a means of earning salvation, but as a grateful expression of covenant faithfulness, shaped by love and led by the Spirit.Matthew 5:17–19; John 14:15; Romans 3:31; 1 John 5:3
14Israel and the Nations
We believe God remains faithful to His covenants and promises to Israel. Through Messiah, people from the nations are brought near to the God of Israel and made fellow citizens in His household, without boasting over the natural branches.Genesis 12:3; Romans 11:17–29; Ephesians 2:11–19
15The Fellowship of Believers
We believe the congregation is called to worship the Father, proclaim Yeshua, study and obey Scripture, pray, share life together, care for one another, make disciples, and walk in humility, truth, forgiveness, and mutual accountability.Acts 2:42–47; Hebrews 10:24–25; John 13:34–35
16Resurrection and the Eternal Kingdom
We believe God will raise the dead and bring righteous judgment. Those belonging to Messiah have the hope of everlasting life in His renewed creation, where God dwells with His people.Daniel 12:2; John 5:28–29; Revelation 21:1–5
17The Sabbath and the Appointed Times
We believe the seventh-day Sabbath, set apart by God at creation, is a lasting gift of rest and a sign of His covenant. We keep the Sabbath and all of God's moedim, His appointed times, including the seven feasts and all the Sabbaths, as He gave them, and we see in them His plan of redemption in Messiah.Exodus 20:8–11; Leviticus 23:1–4
18Marriage
We believe God designed marriage as a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, joined together as one flesh, reflecting His faithfulness to His people.Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4–6
We confess Yeshua as Lord and Messiah and seek, by the grace of God and the power of His Spirit, to live as a people who love God and love our neighbors.
Deuteronomy 6:5; Leviticus 19:18; Matthew 22:37–40
