Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible was given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit and when correctly translated, is infallible, and God's revealed word to man.
We believe that scripture teaches that there is only one true and living God who has chosen to reveal Himself as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
(Duet 6:4; Matt 28:19)
We believe that man is a sinful being in need of redemption.
(Gen 1:26-31; John 6:44)
We believe in the virgin birth of Jesus the Messiah, that He is the Son of God and the Son of man, that He came to save man from condemnation of sin by offering His blood as an atonement and making it available to all who exercise faith in Him. (Matt 1:23)
We believe that for salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. (1Cor 1:18; Tit 2:11; Eph 2:8-9; 2 Tim 1:9)
We believe the scriptures ascribe to the Holy Spirit the acts and attributes of an intelligent being, and that the works of God such as creation, inspiration, giving of life, and sanctification are also ascribed to the Holy Spirit. (Gen 1:2; 2 Peter 2:21)
We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the believer is enabled to live a holy life. (Rom 8:5; 1 Thes 4:3-5; 1 John 2:29)
We believe that the baptism in the Holy Spirit is given to believers who ask for it.
(Joel 2:28; Acts 2:4; Acts 2:39)
We believe that all mankind is subject to the death of the body as a result of the original sin. The soul and spirit do not die, but after death enter into a conscious state of happiness or misery according to the character here possessed by rejection or acceptance of the Savior.
(Ecc 12:7; Rom 5:12; Phil 1:23)
We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved to everlasting life and the lost to everlasting damnation
. (Matt 24:31-46; Acts 24:15; Rev 22:11)
We believe in the personal, imminent return of our Lord and Savior Jesus the Messiah(Acts 1:11; 1 Thes 4:13-18)
We believe in the redemptive work of the Messiah on the cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer. (Ish 53:4-5; James 5:14; 1 Peter 2:24)
We believe that according to the prophets, Israel was split into 2 kingdoms, the northern kingdom, Ephraim-Israel and the southern kingdom Judah-Israel. Judah-Israel was also later called Judea where the term "Jews" came from. The northern kingdom was scattered throughout the world by the Assyrians and were effectively "lost" into the nations. The prohecies given say that in the "last days" the Messiah would re-gather Ephraim and Judah (Ezek 37) and make them one again. This was affirmed by Jesus the Messiah when He said "I have only come for the "lost sheep" of the house of Israel". From this (as well as many other scriptures), we believe that the returning people of God that have accepted the salvation offered through the Messiah have been primarily descendants of the "lost sheep" of Israel. We also believe that even if one is not descended from one of these tribes they "become" Israel because of fellowship with the "One who is Israel". The title of Israel is for all who are in fellowship with the Messiah whether they are from Ephraim or Judah or not. We also believe to reject the title of Israel is falling into the "folly of Esau" whom God hated for rejecting his birthright.
We believe followers of the Messiah (mainly known as Christians) are commanded by the Messiah to obey the Law of God as given to Moses (Matt 5:17-19; Acts 24:14; Rom 3:31; Rom 7:12-25; 1 John 3:4). We also believe that the majority of the "Church" has been deceived by the lawless one (Antichrist) into believing the Law was abolished (2 Thes 2:1-14)
