Statement of Faith
These are the biblical principles and theological convictions that guide our ministry.
1. The Authority and Unity of Scripture
We believe that the entire Bible — both the Old and New Testaments — is the inspired, inerrant, and infallible Word of God. It is the final and sufficient authority in all matters of faith, doctrine, and practice. The Hebrew Scriptures are foundational and point directly to the Messiah, Jesus Christ.
2. The Triune God
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each is fully God, equal in glory, power, and essence, yet distinct in role and relation.
3. The Person and Work of Christ
Jesus Christ, fully God and fully man, was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin. He lived a sinless life, died a substitutionary death on the cross, rose bodily from the dead, and now reigns at the right hand of the Father. Salvation is found in Him alone.
4. Salvation by Grace Through Faith
Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. This includes regeneration, justification, sanctification, and glorification. It is the free gift of God and cannot be earned by works or human effort.
5. Believer's Baptism by Immersion
We believe baptism is for believers only, as a public profession of faith and obedience to Christ. It is by immersion, symbolizing the believer's union with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection. It is not salvific but is commanded by Jesus for all who follow Him.
6. The Church
The Church consists of all true believers in Christ. The local church is an autonomous body of baptized believers committed to worship, fellowship, teaching, the ordinances, and mission. Christ is the head of the Church.
7. Spiritual Gifts
We affirm the continuing presence and operation of spiritual gifts within the Church, as described in the New Testament. We believe these gifts are to be exercised in a spirit of humility, under the authority of Scripture, and in accordance with the order and purpose taught in the New Testament.
8. The Guidance of the Holy Spirit and Personal Experience
We affirm the authority of Scripture as supreme yet also recognize the Holy Spirit's ongoing personal guidance. Spirit-led experience is sacred and legitimate when submitted to Scripture, discerned with wisdom, and practiced in community.
9. Biblical Anthropology: Gender and Identity
We affirm that all people are created by God in His image with inherent dignity and worth. We believe that God intentionally created humanity as male and female, and that both are equal in value and distinct in role. We affirm that marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, designed by God for human flourishing. We uphold the sanctity of life from conception to natural death, trusting in God's good design for human identity and purpose.
10. Doctrine of Humanity and Transhumanism
We affirm that humanity, created in the image of God, is a sacred and purposeful design. We believe that attempts to alter or enhance human nature through technological, genetic, or artificial means oppose God's intention for human identity and dignity. We affirm that human value is not found in artificial enhancements, but in being fearfully and wonderfully made by our Creator.
11. God's Redemptive Plan and the Hope of Jewish Evangelism
We believe that God's plan of salvation, revealed throughout the Scriptures, has always been by grace through faith — and is fulfilled in Jesus, the Messiah. In Christ, God is drawing both Jews and Gentiles into one redeemed people, united by the Spirit and anchored in the promises of the New Covenant. Honoring the priority of the gospel "to the Jew first" (Romans 1:16), we embrace a particular calling to lovingly share the good news of Yeshua with Jewish people around the world, inviting them to receive the Messiah foretold in their own Scriptures.
12. Love for the Jewish People and the Fulfillment of God's Promise
We affirm God's enduring covenantal love for the Jewish people and recognize the rich spiritual heritage given through them — the patriarchs, the prophets, the Scriptures, and ultimately the Messiah. We honor Jewish identity as part of God's redemptive plan and believe that the promises of the Hebrew Scriptures find their fulfillment in Jesus, the Messiah of Israel. In this conviction, we approach Jewish people not with pressure or coercion, but with humility, gratitude, and hope — longing to share the good news of Yeshua with compassion and deep respect.
13. Non-Political Affiliation
We as an organization are not political in nature. We do not promote any party or ideology. Our citizenship is in heaven, and our mission is spiritual: to proclaim the gospel and advance the kingdom of Christ.
14. Spiritual Warfare
We affirm the reality of spiritual warfare. The gospel is proclaimed in contested territory. We are equipped with the full armor of God and empowered by the Spirit to resist the enemy and advance the gospel in power and truth.
15. The Great Commission and Global Missions
We exist to make disciples of all nations, especially the Jewish people. We proclaim the gospel, plant churches, disciple believers, and raise up leaders. We affirm Christ's command to go into all the world until every people hears. We follow the biblical pattern of gospel expansion from Jerusalem to Judea, Samaria, and the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8), laboring first for the Jewish people and then for the nations. Our evangelism is grounded in Scripture, both Old and New Testaments.
16. Truth and the Exclusivity of the Gospel
We affirm that Jesus is the only way to God, and that salvation is found in Him alone. We affirm the absolute truth and authority of God's Word in all generations. While we engage diverse cultures with humility and compassion, we hold fast to the exclusive truth of the gospel without compromise.
17. The Witness of the Church in a Secular World
We affirm the existence of a personal, holy, and sovereign God, who created and sustains all things. We affirm that true knowledge and wisdom begin with the fear of the Lord, and that any worldview which denies God's existence is ultimately incomplete and spiritually bankrupt.
18. The Sanctity of Life
We affirm the sanctity of all human life from conception to natural death. Every person bears the image of God and deserves dignity and protection. We affirm that all people, regardless of ability, age, or social status, are fearfully and wonderfully made.
19. Unity in the Essentials, Liberty in the Non-Essentials
We do not divide over secondary issues. We respect diverse views on creation, eschatology, spiritual gifts, and theological systems such as Reformed theology. However, we do not affirm classical dispensationalism, as we believe God has one people in Christ. We strive for unity in the gospel and charity in all things, provided that these positions uphold the inerrancy and authority of Scripture. We affirm, for example, the historical reality of Adam and Eve, as Jesus Himself spoke of them as literal persons (Matthew 19:4–6).
20. Final Affirmation
We affirm these doctrines not as a cold creed but as a living confession — a call to proclaim Christ to all people, especially to the Jewish people, with clarity, compassion, and boldness. We pledge to hold fast to the truth, preach the Word in season and out, and go wherever the Lord leads — from New York to Tel Aviv — until every knee bows and every tongue confesses that Jesus the Messiah is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Amen.
