1. The Authority of Scripture
We believe that the Torah (Genesis–Deuteronomy), the Prophets, and the Writings, along with the witness of the New Testament, are divinely inspired and serve as the foundation of truth for all believers.
The Scriptures reveal YHWH’s will, His instructions for righteousness, and His unfolding plan of redemption. His Word is unchanging, eternal, and life-giving.
All Scripture is inspired by Elohim and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness.” (2 Timothy 3:16)
2. The One True Elohim: The Father and Creator of All Things
We believe in YHWH, the Father, the One True Elohim, the Ancient of Days, the Source of all life and truth. He alone is worthy of worship, and His Name is to be honored and revered.
YHWH spoke creation into existence, formed mankind in His image, and established His covenant with Israel. He is unchanging, eternal, and faithful to His promises.
"Hear, O Israel: YHWH our Elohim, YHWH is one.”
(Deuteronomy 6:4)
“I am YHWH, I do not change.”
(Malachi 3:6)
3. Yeshua: God Incarnate, the Messiah
We believe that Yeshua (Jesus) is Elohim in the flesh—fully God and fully man. He is divine, pre-existent, and one with the Father. He is the One who walked in the Garden of Eden, the One who spoke to Moses from the burning bush, and the One who led Israel through the wilderness.
Yeshua is the promised Messiah, the perfect Lamb who was slain for our sins, bringing redemption and restoration. He walked in complete obedience to Torah, teaching and revealing the heart of the Father.
Through Yeshua, we are reconciled to the Father, invited into His covenant, and empowered to walk in His ways.
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim… And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.” (John 1:1, 14)
“I and My Father are one.” (John 10:30)
“Whoever has seen Me has seen the Father.” (John 14:9)
“I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)
4. The Ruach HaKodesh: (Holy Spirit)
We believe that the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh) was given to lead, guide, and empower believers in truth and righteousness. The Spirit convicts of sin, teaches Torah, and strengthens us in faith.
The Holy Spirit is not separate from Torah—it is the breath of YHWH that moves in us to walk in obedience. Those led by the Spirit, walk according to the commandments with joy and understanding.
“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things.” (John 14:26)
“For all who are led by the Spirit of Elohim are sons of Elohim.”
(Romans 8:14)
5. Creation and YHWH’s Sovereignty:
We believe that YHWH created the heavens and the earth in six literal days, establishing the foundation of life, time, and order. His creation was perfect and complete, demonstrating His sovereignty and power over all things.
We affirm a young earth, rejecting evolutionary theories that contradict Scripture. Creation testifies to YHWH’s wisdom, design, and authority, calling humanity to acknowledge Him as the Supreme Creator.
"For in six days YHWH made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day.” (Exodus 20:11)
“The heavens declare the glory of Elohim, and the sky above proclaims His handiwork.” (Psalm 19:1)
6. Torah Observance: The Path of Righteousness
We believe that Torah is eternal, not abolished but fulfilled and upheld through Yeshua. The commandments are a guide for righteousness, revealing how we are to walk in holiness.
Kosher and Dietary Laws
We uphold biblical dietary laws, following YHWH’s instructions regarding clean and unclean food as outlined in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14. These commands are not legalistic but intended to maintain purity and obedience before YHWH.
7. No Celebration of Pagan Festivals:
We reject the traditions of Christmas, Easter, Halloween, and other man-made holidays, as they have roots in pagan practices. Instead, we embrace YHWH’s appointed feasts as our times of worship.
8. Repentance and Forgiveness:
We believe that true repentance (teshuvah)is necessary for forgiveness. Sin separates us from YHWH, but through confession, turning away from sin, and walking in righteousness, we are restored and forgiven through His mercy.
9. The Grafting into Israel:
We believe that those who follow Yeshua and submit to His ways become grafted into Israel, joining the covenant people and inheriting the promises given to Abraham.
10. The Feasts and Appointed Times:
We believe that YHWH’s appointed feasts (Leviticus 23) are eternal, meant to be observed by all who follow Him.
11. The Coming Kingdom:
At the end of this age, Yeshua will return to judge the nations, establish His reign, and restore righteousness.
During His 1,000-year reign, Torah will be the governing law, and the Temple will be restored as a place of worship.
We believe in the future restoration of all things when Yeshua returns as King and High Priest, ruling the earth in righteousness.
12. Set Apart from the World: Living in Holiness
We believe that followers of Yeshua are called to be set apart from the world. Our faith shapes every aspect of life, directing us away from man-made traditions and practices of the world and instead toward biblical truth.
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” (Romans 12:2)
Biblical Marriage and Family
We uphold marriage as a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, as established in Genesis. Marriage reflects the relationship between Yeshua and His people, and we reject worldly distortions of its meaning.
“A man shall leave his father and his mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.” (Genesis 2:24)
“Husbands, love your wives, as Messiah loved the assembly and gave Himself up for her.” (Ephesians 5:25)
Children are a blessing from YHWH, and families are called to raise them in righteousness, teaching Torah as a foundation for life.
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old, he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6)
The Sanctity of Life
We believe that life begins at conception and that every human life is sacred, created in the image of Elohim. Abortion is the taking of innocent life and is contrary to YHWH’s commandments.
“Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, and before you were born, I set you apart.” (Jeremiah 1:5)
“You shall not murder.” (Exodus 20:13)
As a community, we affirm the value of every life and seek to support mothers, families, and children with compassion and care.
Gender and Identity
We believe that YHWH created humanity as male and female, and that gender is a divine design, not a human construct. Transgender ideology, which seeks to redefine gender, contradicts YHWH’s creation and order.
“So Elohim created man in His own image; in the image of Elohim He created him; male and female He created them.” (Genesis 1:27)
We affirm the beauty and purpose of YHWH’s design for men and women, and we reject cultural trends that distort or reject His truth.
Rejecting Corruption in Society
We reject modern cultural practices that contradict Scripture, including:
- The redefinition of marriage and gender
- The acceptance of sin under the guise of “progress”
- Materialism and self-centered living
- Worldly influences that weaken moral and spiritual purity
- LGBTQ+/ Transgender Teachings and lifestyles
- Racial Superiority over others of different ethnicities
- Love is love regardless of age
Instead, we strive to live righteously, honoring YHWH in all things, and walking in obedience to His commandments, no matter the pressures of the world.
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.” (Isaiah 5:20)
“Come out of her, My people, lest you take part in her sins.” (Revelation 18:4).
Our lives should reflect the light of Torah, standing firm against deception and worldly influence. We value honesty, purity, modesty, and justice, knowing that YHWH desires a people who walk in righteousness.
“Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16)
