1. We believe the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is God over all creation. (Deut. 6:4)
2. We believe God gave His people Torah for the purpose of living a holy life that would bring blessings and connection with Him. (Gal. 3:19)
3. We believe the “Word” that God spoke in Genesis to create the universe was the same Word that was sent to become flesh. (John 1:1-3 & Col. 1:19-20)
4. We believe that Yeshua is Messiah, the son of God, sent by the Father for the remission of sin. (1Cor. 15:22 & John 1:29)
5. We believe that by Yeshua’s life, death and resurrection, he offers eternal life to all mankind. (Heb. 9:11-12 & Rom. 8:1-2)
6. We believe Yeshua’s willful death was never intended to do away with Torah or abolished it just because we place our faith in Messiah. (Romans 3:31)
7. We believe that in order to be saved we need to repent and confess our sins. (1 John 1:9 & Rom. 6:23)

13. We observe and celebrate all the appointed feasts as commanded by God. (Lev. 23:1-44)
14. We observe Shabbat, as Yeshua did, according to the 4th commandment. (Luke 4:16-17, Lev. 23:3 & Exodus 20:4)
