YHVH*
We worship one Elohim, YHVH, who is eternal, with no beginning or end. He is the Elohim of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; rich in love, mercy and grace, demonstrated in both the Old and New Testaments. YHVH, being the sole source of salvation, gave His Son Yeshua to be the sole agent of salvation.

Yeshua*
Yeshua is the Son of Elohim, the very Word of Elohim, by whom, and for whom all things were created before time. He came in flesh to redeem mankind, and to restore all things to wholeness and holiness. He, being the only way to reconciliation with the Father, was conceived through the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, and kept Torah to perfection. This perfection enabled Him to be the true and pure Lamb of Elohim, crucified on Passover, buried during the week of Unleavened Bread, and rising three days later on the day of First Fruits, fulfilling the Spring Holy Days. He ascended into Heaven to the Father after His resurrection and will return to judge all of humanity. All may receive salvation through faith in His sacrifice to atone for sins alone, not because of our works.

Ruach HaKodesh*
The Holy Spirit was sent to convict, guide, and teach us to walk in mature and wise obedience to the commands, judgements, rulings, and laws of Elohim. Elohim speaks through His Spirit, revealing truth and witnesses to the glory of Yeshua. It is this Spirit that sets us apart from all other peoples, fulfilling Elohim’s promise to, “…make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah…” and “…put a new Spirit within them…so that they may follow My laws, keep My ordinances and practice them.” It is this Holy Spirit that enables and empowers us to operate in the gifts of the Spirit as described in 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 which are still applicable today.

The Scriptures (The Bible: Torah, Nevi'im, Ketuvim, and B'rit Chadashah)
We believe the physical Word of Elohim in its original form is perfect, inerrant, divinely inspired, and spoken through His many prophets and writers. It is comprised in total of 66 books, from Genesis to Revelation, and teaches that sin came through man, and death came through sin. Further, all are guilty of sin, deserving of death here and eternal, and we are in need of a Redeemer to reconcile us back to Elohim. That Redeemer was revealed as the Word of Elohim, Yeshua, who took the penalty for all sin for all mankind. The Scriptures also teach that we have a literal enemy, HaSatan, the devil, and his evil/unclean spirits and forces. These will be destroyed in the end.
All Scripture is applicable and/or relevant for today, as Elohim has revealed all that we need to know for salvation and mitzvot. These include His Holy Days and dietary laws. Additional studies, commentaries, and books may be useful and helpful, but they are not Scripture nor required.

Salvation
We believe that faith in Yah’s Salvation, Yeshua, is the only means by which one can be saved. Through confession and repentance, Elohim will remove our sins from us, clothing us in Yeshua’s righteousness. This is His love for us.
Our obedience to His Torah is the only means by which one can develop a pure and mature Elohim-like character and receive His blessings. These works are the outward expression of our inward faith, the evidence of our belief in Elohim. This is our love for Him.

Sin
Sin entered the world through man’s disobedience, and death entered through sin. Sin is the breaking of Elohim’s Law, His Torah.
Romans 5:12, 1 John 3:4
Romans 5:12, 1 John 3:4
Yisrael
Israel is both Elohim’s chosen people/nation, and a chosen land. Israel, the people, are commonly referred to as the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as well as those who were taken out of Egypt through the exodus. Further, those who joined themselves and took on the laws, rules, regulations and customs of the nation and their Elohim became part of Israel.
The land of Israel is all that was promised to Abraham in Genesis 15:18-21. This land is irrevocably the land of Israel.
Deuteronomy 7:6-13, Exodus 12:49, Genesis 15:18-21
The land of Israel is all that was promised to Abraham in Genesis 15:18-21. This land is irrevocably the land of Israel.
Deuteronomy 7:6-13, Exodus 12:49, Genesis 15:18-21
The Church
“The Church” is a generally used term to describe the body of modern-day believers in Elohim and His Messiah. However, the church is not a new entity; It is the continuation of the body of believers, that has grown worldwide. As before, Israel could accept non-native people who professed and acted in faith toward Israel’s Elohim and His covenant. As brothers and sisters, adopted into the royal family of Elohim, we are called to live in unity with one another, yet to be a set-apart people, which is exemplified in behavior and adherence to His Torah (Sabbath, Holy Days, etc.). Our mission is to make disciples of nations, witnessing to the lost, to be a light, providing for the weak, poor, widows, and orphans, so that others would be blessed and convicted by our good works toward our Elohim.
Today, Jewish and non-Jewish believers in Messiah Yeshua, (commonly referred to as “the church” in New Testament congregations) have not replaced Israel, but have been grafted into Israel, and are blessed by the keeping of His covenant, originally given to Abraham.
Matthew 24:14, Ephesians 2:10, 14-17, 1 John 1:7, Isaiah 1:17, Exodus 22:22-24, James 1:22, 26-27, Romans 11:1-2, 16-24

The Return
Our Messiah Yeshua will one day return to Israel, delivering His people from a wicked world. He will rule and judge righteously in the Kingdom to come. Those who are not His will be destroyed, but those who have been redeemed will live with him eternally.

8But Elohim proves His own love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Messiah died for us. 9Much more then, having now been declared right by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. 10For if, being enemies, we were restored to favor with Elohim through the death of His Son, much more, having been restored to favor, we shall be saved by His life. 11And not only this, but we also exult in Elohim through our Master Yeshua Messiah, through whom we have now received the restoration to favor. 12For this reason, even as through one man sin did enter into the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned –

1Beloved ones, do not believe every spirit, but prove the spirits, whether they are of Elohim, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2By this you know the Spirit of Elohim: Every spirit that confesses that Yeshua Messiah has come in the flesh is of Elohim, 3and every spirit that does not confess that Yeshua Messiah has come in the flesh is not of Elohim. And this is the spirit of the anti-messiah which you heard is coming, and now is already in the world.

“Grass shall wither, the flower shall fade, but the Word of our Elohim stands forever.”

1‘Do not make idols for yourselves, and do not set up a carved image or a pillar for yourselves, and do not place a stone image in your land, to bow down to it. For I am YHVH your Elohim. 2‘Guard My Sabbaths and reverence My set-apart place. I am YHVH.
3‘If you walk in My laws and guard My commands, and shall do them, 4then I shall give you rain in its season, and the land shall yield its crops, and the trees of the field yield their fruit. 5‘And your threshing shall last till the time of the grape harvest, and the grape harvest shall last till the time of sowing. And you shall eat your bread until you have enough, and shall dwell in your land safely. 6‘And I shall give peace in the land, and you shall lie down and no one make you afraid. And I shall clear the land of evil beasts, and not let the sword go through your land. 7‘And you shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall by the sword before you. 8‘And five of you shall pursue a hundred, and a hundred of you pursue ten thousand. And your enemies shall fall by the sword before you. 9‘And I shall turn to you and make you fruitful, and shall increase you, and shall establish My covenant with you. 10‘And you shall eat the old supply, and clear out the old because of the new. 11‘And I shall set My Dwelling Place in your midst, and My being shall not reject you. 12‘And I shall walk in your midst, and shall be your Elohim, and you shall be My people. 13‘I am YHVH your Elohim, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, from being their slaves. And I have broken the bars of your yoke and made you walk upright.
14‘But if you do not obey Me, and do not do all these commands, 15and if you reject My laws, or if your being loathes My right-rulings, so that you do not do all My commands, but break My covenant, 16I also do this to you: And I shall appoint sudden alarm over you, wasting disease and inflammation, destroying the eyes, and consuming the life. And you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. 17‘And I shall set My face against you, and you shall be smitten before your enemies. And those who hate you shall rule over you, and you shall flee when no one pursues you. 18‘And after all this, if you do not obey Me, then I shall punish you seven times more for your sins. 19‘And I shall break the pride of your power, and shall make your heavens like iron and your earth like bronze. 20‘And your strength shall be spent in vain and your land not yield its crops, nor the trees of the land yield their fruit.
21‘And if you walk contrary to Me, and refuse to obey Me, I shall bring on you seven times more plagues, according to your sins, 22and send wild beasts among you, which shall bereave you of your children. And I shall cut off your livestock, and make you few in number, and your highways shall be deserted.
23‘And if you are not instructed by Me by these, but walk contrary to Me, 24then I also shall walk contrary to you, and I Myself shall strike you seven times for your sins. 25‘And I shall bring against you a sword executing the vengeance of My covenant, and you shall gather together in your cities, and I shall send pestilence among you, and you shall be given into the hand of the enemy. 26‘When I have cut off your supply of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall bring back to you your bread by weight, and you shall eat and not be satisfied.
27‘And if in spite of this, you do not obey Me, but walk contrary to Me, 28then I shall walk contrary to you in wrath. And I Myself shall punish you seven times for your sins. 29‘And you shall eat the flesh of your sons, and eat the flesh of your daughters. 30‘And I shall destroy your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and put your carcasses on the carcasses of your idols. And My being shall loathe you. 31‘And I shall turn your cities into ruins and lay your set-apart places waste, and not smell your sweet fragrances. 32‘And I shall lay the land waste, and your enemies who dwell in it shall be astonished at it. 33‘And I shall scatter you among the nations and draw out a sword after you. And your land shall be desert and your cities ruins,
34and the land enjoy its Sabbaths as long as it lies waste and you are in your enemies’ land. Then the land would rest and enjoy its Sabbaths. 35‘As long as it lies waste it rests, for the time it did not rest on your Sabbaths when you dwelt in it. 36‘And as for those of you who are left, I shall send faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a shaken leaf shall cause them to flee. And they shall flee as though retreating from a sword, and they shall fall when no one pursues. 37‘And they shall stumble over one another, as from before a sword, when no one pursues. And you shall be unable to stand before your enemies. 38‘And you shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up
(Deuteronomy 6:4-9)
4“Hear, O Yisra’ěl: YHVH our Elohim, YHVH is one! 5“And you shall love YHVH your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your might. 6“And these Words which I am commanding you today shall be in your heart, 7and you shall impress them upon your children, and shall speak of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up, 8and shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9“And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
(Deuteronomy 11:1-32)
1“And you shall love YHVH your Elohim and guard His charge: even His laws, and His right-rulings, and His commands, always. 2“And you shall know today – for it is not your children who have not known and who have not seen the discipline of YHVH your Elohim, His greatness, His strong hand and His outstretched arm, 3and His signs, and His works which He had done in the midst of Mitsrayim, to Pharaoh sovereign of Mitsrayim, and to all his land; 4and that which He had done to the army of Mitsrayim, to their horses and their chariots, when He made the waters of the Sea of Reeds overflow them as they pursued you, and how YHVH has destroyed them to this day; 5and what He had done for you in the wilderness till you came to this place; 6and what He had done to Dathan and Aḇiram the sons of Eliyaḇ, son of Re’uḇěn, when the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the living creatures that were in their possession, in the midst of all Yisra’ěl. 7“For yours are the eyes that saw all the great work of YHVH, which He did.
8“And you shall guard every command which I command you today, so that you are strong, and shall go in, and shall possess the land which you are passing over to possess, 9and to prolong your days in the land which YHVH swore to give your fathers, to them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey. 10“For the land which you are going in to possess is not like the land of Mitsrayim from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and watered it by foot, as a vegetable garden, 11but the land which you are passing over to possess is a land of hills and valleys, which drinks water from the rain of the heavens, 12a land which YHVH your Elohim looks after. The eyes of YHVH your Elohim are always on it, from the beginning of the year to the latter end of the year.
13And it shall be that if you diligently obey My commands which I command you today, to love YHVH your Elohim and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your being, 14then I shall give you the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, and you shall gather in your grain, and your new wine, and your oil. 15And I shall give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be satisfied. 16Guard yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other mighty ones and bow down to them. 17Then the displeasure of YHVH shall burn against you, and He shall shut up the heavens, and there be no rain, and the land not give its increase. And you shall perish quickly from the good land which YHVH is giving you.
18And you shall lay up these Words of Mine in your heart and in your being, and shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 19And you shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up, 20and shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, 21so that your days and the days of your children are increased on the soil of which YHVH swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens on the earth. 22For if you diligently guard all these commands which I command you, to do it, to love YHVH your Elohim, to walk in all His ways, and to cling to Him, 23then YHVH shall drive out all these nations before you, and you shall dispossess greater and stronger nations than you. 24Every place on which the sole of your foot treads is yours: from the wilderness, and Leḇanon, from the river, the River Euphrates, even to the Western Sea is your border. 25No man shall stand against you. YHVH your Elohim shall put the dread of you and the fear of you upon all the land where you tread, as He has spoken to you.
26See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse: 27the blessing, when you obey the commands of YHVH your Elohim which I command you today; 28and the curse, if you do not obey the commands of YHVH your Elohim, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other mighty ones which you have not known. 29And it shall be, when YHVH your Elohim has brought you into the land which you go to possess, that you shall put the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ěyḇal. 30Are they not beyond the Yarděn, toward the setting sun, in the land of the Kena‛anites who dwell in the desert plain opposite Gilgal, beside the terebinth trees of Moreh? 31For you are passing over the Yarděn to go in to possess the land which YHVH your Elohim is giving you, and you shall possess it and dwell in it, 32and shall guard to do all the laws and right-rulings which I am setting before you today.’
(James 2:17-18)
17So also belief, if it does not have works, is in itself dead. 18But someone might say, “You have belief, and I have works.” Show me your belief without your works, and I shall show you my belief by my works.
Sin
(Romans 5:12)
For this reason, even as through one man sin did enter into the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned
(1 John 3:4)
Everyone doing sin also does lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.
Yisrael
(Deuteronomy 7:6-13)
6“For you are a set-apart people to YHVH your Elohim. YHVH your Elohim has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a treasured possession above all the peoples on the face of the earth. “ 7YHVH did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more numerous than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples, 8but because of YHVH loving you, and because of Him guarding the oath which He swore to your fathers, YHVH has brought you out with a strong hand, and ransomed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh sovereign of Mitsrayim. 9“And you shall know that YHVH your Elohim, He is Elohim, the trustworthy Ěl guarding covenant and loving-commitment for a thousand generations with those who love Him, and those who guard His commands, 10but repaying those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them. He does not delay to do so with him who hates Him, He repays him to his face. 11“And you shall guard the command, and the laws, and the right-rulings which I command you today, to do them. 12“And it shall be, because you hear these right-rulings, and shall guard and do them, that YHVH your Elohim shall guard with you the covenant and the loving-commitment which He swore to your fathers, 13and shall love you and bless you and increase you, and shall bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flock, in the land of which He swore to your fathers to give you.
(Exodus 12:49)
“There is one Torah for the native-born and for the stranger who sojourns among you.”
(Genesis 15:18-21)
18On the same day YHVH made a covenant with Aḇram, saying, “I have given this land to your seed, from the river of Mitsrayim to the great river, the River Euphrates, 19with the Qěynite, and the Qenizzite, and the Qaḏmonite, 20and the Ḥittite, and the Perizzite, and the Repha’im, 21and the Amorite, and the Kena‛anite, and the Girgashite, and the Yeḇusite.”
The Church
(Matthew 24:14)
“And this Good News of the reign shall be proclaimed in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end shall come.
(Ephesians 2:10)
For we are His workmanship, created in Messiah Yeshua unto good works, which Elohim prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
(Ephesians 2:14-17)
14For He is our peace, who has made both one, and having broken down the partition of the barrier, 15having abolished in His flesh the enmity – the torah of the commands in dogma – so as to create in Himself one renewed man from the two, thus making peace, 16and to completely restore to favor both of them unto Elohim in one body through the stake, having destroyed the enmity by it. 17And having come, He brought as Good News peace to you who were far off, and peace to those near.
(1 John 1:7)
But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Yeshua Messiah His Son cleanses us from all sin.
(Isaiah 1:17)
“Learn to do good! Seek right-ruling, reprove the oppressor, defend the fatherless, plead for the widow.
(Exodus 22:22-24)
22“Do not afflict any widow or fatherless child. 23“If you do afflict them at all – if they cry out to Me at all, I shall certainly hear their cry, 24and My wrath shall burn and I shall kill you with the sword, your wives shall be widows and your children fatherless.
(James 1:22)
And become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
(James 1:26-27)
26If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is worthless. 27Clean and undefiled religion before the Elohim and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
(Romans 11:1-2)
1I say then, has Elohim rejected His people? Let it not be! For I also am of Yisra’ěl, of the seed of Aḇraham, of the tribe of Binyamin. 2Elohim has not rejected His people whom He knew beforehand. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Ěliyahu, how he pleads with Elohim against Yisra’ěl, saying,
(Romans 11:16-24)
16Now if the first-fruit is set-apart, the lump is also. And if the root is set-apart, so are the branches. 17And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, have been grafted in among them, and came to share the root and fatness of the olive tree, 18do not boast against the branches. And if you boast, remember: you do not bear the root, but the root bears you! 19You shall say then, “The branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.” 20Good! By unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by belief. Do not be arrogant, but fear. 21For if Elohim did not spare the natural branches, He might not spare you either. 22See then the kindness and sharpness of Elohim: on those who fell sharpness, but toward you kindness, if you continue in His kindness, otherwise you also shall be cut off. 23And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, shall be grafted in, for Elohim is able to graft them in again. 24For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more shall these who are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
The Return
(Zechariah 14:3-4)
3And YHVH shall go forth, and He shall fight against those nations, as He fights in the day of battle. 4And in that day His feet shall stand upon the Mount of Olives, which faces Yerushalayim on the east. And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, from east to west, a very great valley, and half of the mountain shall move toward the north and half of it toward the south.
(Acts 1:11)
who also said, “Men of Galil, why do you stand looking up into the heaven? This same Yeshua, who was taken up from you into the heaven, shall come in the same way as you saw Him go into the heaven.”
(Isaiah 11:4)
But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, and shall decide with straightness for the meek ones of the earth, and shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and slay the wrong with the breath of His lips.
(Matthew 16:27)
“For the Son of Aḏam is going to come in the esteem of His Father with His messengers, and then He shall reward each according to his works.

because He has set a day on which He is going to judge the world in righteousness by a Man whom He has appointed, having given proof of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”
(Psalms 96:13)
At the presence of YHVH. For He shall come, For He shall come to judge the earth. He judges the world in righteousness, And the peoples with His truth.
(Revelation 20:11-13)
11And I saw a great white throne and Him who was sitting on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and no place was found for them. 12And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before the throne, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged from what was written in the books, according to their works. 13And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and She’ol gave up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works.
(Revelation 21:4-5)
4“And Elohim shall wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, nor mourning, nor crying. And there shall be no more pain, for the former matters have passed away.” 5And He who was sitting on the throne said, “See, I make all matters new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and trustworthy.”
(Revelation 21:23-27)
23And the city had no need of the sun, nor of the moon, to shine in it, for the esteem of Elohim lightened it, and the Lamb is its lamp. 24And the nations, of those who are saved, shall walk in its light, and the sovereigns of the earth bring their esteem into it. 25And its gates shall not be shut at all by day, for night shall not be there. 26And they shall bring the esteem and the appreciation of the nations into it. 27And there shall by no means enter into it whatever is unclean, neither anyone doing abomination and falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
(Revelation 22:3-5)
3And no longer shall there be any curse, and the throne of Elohim and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. 4And they shall see His face, and His Name shall be upon their foreheads. 5And night shall be no more, and they shall have no need of a lamp or the light of the sun, because YHVH Elohim shall give them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.
(Deuteronomy 6:4-5)
4Hear, O Yisra’ěl: YHVH our Elohim, YHVH is one! 5And you shall love YHVH your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your might.
(1 Corinthians 8:5-6)
5For even if there are so-called mighty ones, whether in heaven or on earth – as there are many mighty ones and many masters – 6for us there is one Elohim, the Father, from whom all came and for whom we live, and one Master Yeshua Messiah, through whom all came and through whom we live.
(Isaiah 45:18)
For thus said YHVH, Creator of the heavens, He is Elohim, Former of earth and its Maker, He established it, He did not create it to be empty, He formed it to be inhabited: “I am YHVH, and there is none else.
(1 John 4:8)
The one who does not love does not know Elohim, for Elohim is love.
(1 John 4:16)
And we have known and believed the love that Elohim has for us. Elohim is love, and he who stays in love stays in Elohim, and Elohim in him.
(Psalms 145:8)
YHVH shows favor and is compassionate, Patient and great in loving-commitment.
(Ephesians 2:4)
But Elohim, who is rich in compassion, because of His great love with which He loved us,
(Exodus 3:14-15)
14And Elohim said to Mosheh, “I am that which I am.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Yisra’ěl, ‘I am has sent me to you.’ ” 15And Elohim said further to Mosheh, “Thus you are to say to the children of Yisra’ěl, ‘YHVH Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of Aḇraham, the Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ, has sent me to you. This is My Name forever, and this is My remembrance to all generations.’
(Romans 10:13)
For “everyone who calls on the Name of YHVH shall be saved.”
Yeshua
(John 1:1-4)
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim. 2He was in the beginning with Elohim. 3All came to be through Him, and without Him not even one came to be that came to be. 4In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
(John 1:14-18)
14And the Word became flesh and pitched His tent among us, and we saw His esteem, esteem as of an only brought-forth of a father, complete in favor and truth. 15Yoḥanan bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has become before me, because He was before me.’ ” 16And out of His completeness we all did receive, and favor upon favor, 17for the Torah was given through Mosheh – the favor and the truth came through Yeshua Messiah. 18No one has ever seen Elohim. The only brought-forth Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He did declare.

16And He came to Natsareth, where He had been brought up. And according to His practice, He went into the congregation on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read. 17And the scroll of the prophet Yeshayahu was handed to Him. And having unrolled the scroll, He found the place where it was written:
18“The Spirit of YHVH is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to bring the Good News to the poor. He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to send away crushed ones with a release, 19to proclaim the acceptable year of YHVH.”
20And having rolled up the scroll, He gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the congregation were fixed upon Him. 21And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been filled in your hearing.”

20But now Messiah has been raised from the dead, and has become the first-fruit of those having fallen asleep. 21For since death is through a man, resurrection of the dead is also through a Man. 22For as all die in Aḏam, so also all shall be made alive in Messiah. 23And each in his own order: Messiah the first-fruits, then those who are of Messiah at His coming,

21But now, apart from the Torah, a righteousness of Elohim has been revealed, being witnessed by the Torah and the Prophets, 22and the righteousness of Elohim is through belief in Yeshua Messiah to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference, 23for all have sinned and fall short of the esteem of Elohim, 24being declared right, without paying, by His favor through the redemption which is in Messiah Yeshua, 25whom Elohim set forth as an atonement, through belief in His blood, 26to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His tolerance Elohim had passed over the sins that had taken place before, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He is righteous and declares righteous the one who has belief in Yeshua.
(Romans 4:16)
On account of this it is of belief, that it be according to favor, for the promise to be made certain to all the seed, not only to those who are of the Torah, but also to those who are of the belief of Aḇraham, who is father of us all –

19“And I shall give them one heart, and put a new spirit within you. And I shall take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh, 20so that they walk in My laws, and guard My right-rulings, and shall do them. And they shall be My people and I shall be their Elohim.
(Jeremiah 31:31-33)
31“See, the days are coming,” declares YHVH, “when I shall make a renewed covenant with the house of Yisra’ěl and with the house of Yehuḏah, 32not like the covenant I made with their fathers in the day when I strengthened their hand to bring them out of the land of Mitsrayim, My covenant which they broke, though I was a husband to them,” declares YHVH. 33“For this is the covenant I shall make with the house of Yisra’ěl after those days, declares YHVH: I shall put My Torah in their inward parts, and write it on their hearts. And I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be My people.
(Hebrews 10:15-17)
15And the Set-apart Spirit also witnesses to us, for after having said before, 16“This is the covenant that I shall make with them after those days, says YHVH, giving My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I shall write them,” 17and, “Their sins and their lawlessnesses I shall remember no more.”
(Romans 8:26)
And in the same way the Spirit does help in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray, but the Spirit Himself pleads our case for us with groanings unutterable.
(1 Corinthians 12:4-11)
4And there are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5There are different kinds of services, but the same Master. 6And there are different kinds of workings, but it is the same Elohim who is working all in all. 7And to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for profiting, 8for to one is given a word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another a word of knowledge according to the same Spirit, 9and to another belief by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the same Spirit, 10and to another operations of powers, and to another prophecy, and to another discerning of spirits, and to another kinds of tongues, and to another interpretation of tongues. 11But one and the same Spirit works all these, distributing to each one individually as He intends.
(Romans 8:11)
And if the Spirit of Him who raised Yeshua from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Messiah from the dead shall also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit dwelling in you.
The Scriptures (The Bible: Torah, Nevi'im, Ketuvim, and B'rit Ḥadashah)
(2 Timothy 3:16-17)
16All Scripture is breathed out by Elohim and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for setting straight, for instruction in righteousness, 17that the man of Elohim might be fitted, equipped for every good work.
(Hebrews 4:12)
For the Word of Elohim is living, and working, and sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through even to the dividing of being and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
(Romans 3:23)
for all have sinned and fall short of the esteem of Elohim
(Romans 5:8-12)
8But Elohim proves His own love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Messiah died for us. 9Much more then, having now been declared right by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. 10For if, being enemies, we were restored to favor with Elohim through the death of His Son, much more, having been restored to favor, we shall be saved by His life. 11And not only this, but we also exult in Elohim through our Master Yeshua Messiah, through whom we have now received the restoration to favor. 12For this reason, even as through one man sin did enter into the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned –
(Romans 6:23)
For the wages of sin is death, but the favorable gift of Elohim is everlasting life in Messiah Yeshua our Master.
(Ephesians 1:7)
in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of trespasses, according to the riches of His favor
(Ephesians 2:8-9)
8For by favor you have been saved, through belief, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of Elohim, 9it is not by works, so that no one should boast.
(1 Peter 2:24)
who Himself bore our sins in His body on the timber, so that we, having died to sins, might live unto righteousness – by whose stripes you were healed.
(1 Peter 5:8)
Be sober, watch, because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
(James 4:7)
So then subject yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil and he shall flee from you.
(2 Corinthians 11:14)
And no wonder! For Satan himself masquerades as a messenger of light!
(Ephesians 6:11)
Put on the complete armor of Elohim, for you to have power to stand against the schemes of the devil.
(1 John 4:1-3)
1Beloved ones, do not believe every spirit, but prove the spirits, whether they are of Elohim, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2By this you know the Spirit of Elohim: Every spirit that confesses that Yeshua Messiah has come in the flesh is of Elohim, 3and every spirit that does not confess that Yeshua Messiah has come in the flesh is not of Elohim. And this is the spirit of the anti-messiah which you heard is coming, and now is already in the world.
(Revelation 19:20)
And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he led astray those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshipped his image. The two were thrown alive into the lake of fire burning with sulfur.
(Revelation 20:10)
And the devil, who led them astray, was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet are. And they shall be tortured day and night forever and ever.
(Revelation 20:14)
And Death and She’ol were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
(Numbers 23:19)
Ěl is not a man, to lie; nor a son of man, to repent! Has He said, and would He not do it; or spoken, and would not confirm it?
(Revelation 22:18-19)
18For I witness to everyone hearing the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to them, Elohim shall add to him the plagues that are written in this book, 19and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, Elohim shall take away his part from the Book of Life, and out of the set-apart city, which are written in this Book.
(Isaiah 40:8)
“Grass shall wither, the flower shall fade, but the Word of our Elohim stands forever.”
(Ecclesiastes 12:12-14)
12And besides these, my son, be warned – the making of many books has no end, and much study is a wearying of the flesh. 13Let us hear the conclusion of the entire matter: Fear Elohim and guard His commands, for this applies to all mankind! 14For Elohim shall bring every work into right-ruling, including all that is hidden, whether good or whether evil.
Salvation
(1 John 1:9)
If we confess our sins, He is trustworthy and righteous to forgive us the sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
(1 John 4:9)
By this the love of Elohim was manifested in us, that Elohim has sent His only brought-forth Son into the world, in order that we might live through Him.
(1 John 5:3)
For this is the love for Elohim, that we guard His commands, and His commands are not heavy
(John 14:15)
If you love Me, you shall guard My commands.
(Leviticus 26:1-38)
1‘Do not make idols for yourselves, and do not set up a carved image or a pillar for yourselves, and do not place a stone image in your land, to bow down to it. For I am YHVH your Elohim. 2‘Guard My Sabbaths and reverence My set-apart place. I am YHVH.
3‘If you walk in My laws and guard My commands, and shall do them, 4then I shall give you rain in its season, and the land shall yield its crops, and the trees of the field yield their fruit. 5‘And your threshing shall last till the time of the grape harvest, and the grape harvest shall last till the time of sowing. And you shall eat your bread until you have enough, and shall dwell in your land safely. 6‘And I shall give peace in the land, and you shall lie down and no one make you afraid. And I shall clear the land of evil beasts, and not let the sword go through your land. 7‘And you shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall by the sword before you. 8‘And five of you shall pursue a hundred, and a hundred of you pursue ten thousand. And your enemies shall fall by the sword before you. 9‘And I shall turn to you and make you fruitful, and shall increase you, and shall establish My covenant with you. 10‘And you shall eat the old supply, and clear out the old because of the new. 11‘And I shall set My Dwelling Place in your midst, and My being shall not reject you. 12‘And I shall walk in your midst, and shall be your Elohim, and you shall be My people. 13‘I am YHVH your Elohim, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, from being their slaves. And I have broken the bars of your yoke and made you walk upright.
14‘But if you do not obey Me, and do not do all these commands, 15and if you reject My laws, or if your being loathes My right-rulings, so that you do not do all My commands, but break My covenant, 16I also do this to you: And I shall appoint sudden alarm over you, wasting disease and inflammation, destroying the eyes, and consuming the life. And you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. 17‘And I shall set My face against you, and you shall be smitten before your enemies. And those who hate you shall rule over you, and you shall flee when no one pursues you. 18‘And after all this, if you do not obey Me, then I shall punish you seven times more for your sins. 19‘And I shall break the pride of your power, and shall make your heavens like iron and your earth like bronze. 20‘And your strength shall be spent in vain and your land not yield its crops, nor the trees of the land yield their fruit.
21‘And if you walk contrary to Me, and refuse to obey Me, I shall bring on you seven times more plagues, according to your sins, 22and send wild beasts among you, which shall bereave you of your children. And I shall cut off your livestock, and make you few in number, and your highways shall be deserted.
23‘And if you are not instructed by Me by these, but walk contrary to Me, 24then I also shall walk contrary to you, and I Myself shall strike you seven times for your sins. 25‘And I shall bring against you a sword executing the vengeance of My covenant, and you shall gather together in your cities, and I shall send pestilence among you, and you shall be given into the hand of the enemy. 26‘When I have cut off your supply of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall bring back to you your bread by weight, and you shall eat and not be satisfied.
27‘And if in spite of this, you do not obey Me, but walk contrary to Me, 28then I shall walk contrary to you in wrath. And I Myself shall punish you seven times for your sins. 29‘And you shall eat the flesh of your sons, and eat the flesh of your daughters. 30‘And I shall destroy your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and put your carcasses on the carcasses of your idols. And My being shall loathe you. 31‘And I shall turn your cities into ruins and lay your set-apart places waste, and not smell your sweet fragrances. 32‘And I shall lay the land waste, and your enemies who dwell in it shall be astonished at it. 33‘And I shall scatter you among the nations and draw out a sword after you. And your land shall be desert and your cities ruins,
34and the land enjoy its Sabbaths as long as it lies waste and you are in your enemies’ land. Then the land would rest and enjoy its Sabbaths. 35‘As long as it lies waste it rests, for the time it did not rest on your Sabbaths when you dwelt in it. 36‘And as for those of you who are left, I shall send faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a shaken leaf shall cause them to flee. And they shall flee as though retreating from a sword, and they shall fall when no one pursues. 37‘And they shall stumble over one another, as from before a sword, when no one pursues. And you shall be unable to stand before your enemies. 38‘And you shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up
(Deuteronomy 6:4-9)
4“Hear, O Yisra’ěl: YHVH our Elohim, YHVH is one! 5“And you shall love YHVH your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your might. 6“And these Words which I am commanding you today shall be in your heart, 7and you shall impress them upon your children, and shall speak of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up, 8and shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9“And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
(Deuteronomy 11:1-32)
1“And you shall love YHVH your Elohim and guard His charge: even His laws, and His right-rulings, and His commands, always. 2“And you shall know today – for it is not your children who have not known and who have not seen the discipline of YHVH your Elohim, His greatness, His strong hand and His outstretched arm, 3and His signs, and His works which He had done in the midst of Mitsrayim, to Pharaoh sovereign of Mitsrayim, and to all his land; 4and that which He had done to the army of Mitsrayim, to their horses and their chariots, when He made the waters of the Sea of Reeds overflow them as they pursued you, and how YHVH has destroyed them to this day; 5and what He had done for you in the wilderness till you came to this place; 6and what He had done to Dathan and Aḇiram the sons of Eliyaḇ, son of Re’uḇěn, when the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the living creatures that were in their possession, in the midst of all Yisra’ěl. 7“For yours are the eyes that saw all the great work of YHVH, which He did.
8“And you shall guard every command which I command you today, so that you are strong, and shall go in, and shall possess the land which you are passing over to possess, 9and to prolong your days in the land which YHVH swore to give your fathers, to them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey. 10“For the land which you are going in to possess is not like the land of Mitsrayim from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and watered it by foot, as a vegetable garden, 11but the land which you are passing over to possess is a land of hills and valleys, which drinks water from the rain of the heavens, 12a land which YHVH your Elohim looks after. The eyes of YHVH your Elohim are always on it, from the beginning of the year to the latter end of the year.
13And it shall be that if you diligently obey My commands which I command you today, to love YHVH your Elohim and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your being, 14then I shall give you the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, and you shall gather in your grain, and your new wine, and your oil. 15And I shall give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be satisfied. 16Guard yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other mighty ones and bow down to them. 17Then the displeasure of YHVH shall burn against you, and He shall shut up the heavens, and there be no rain, and the land not give its increase. And you shall perish quickly from the good land which YHVH is giving you.
18And you shall lay up these Words of Mine in your heart and in your being, and shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 19And you shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up, 20and shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, 21so that your days and the days of your children are increased on the soil of which YHVH swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens on the earth. 22For if you diligently guard all these commands which I command you, to do it, to love YHVH your Elohim, to walk in all His ways, and to cling to Him, 23then YHVH shall drive out all these nations before you, and you shall dispossess greater and stronger nations than you. 24Every place on which the sole of your foot treads is yours: from the wilderness, and Leḇanon, from the river, the River Euphrates, even to the Western Sea is your border. 25No man shall stand against you. YHVH your Elohim shall put the dread of you and the fear of you upon all the land where you tread, as He has spoken to you.
26See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse: 27the blessing, when you obey the commands of YHVH your Elohim which I command you today; 28and the curse, if you do not obey the commands of YHVH your Elohim, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other mighty ones which you have not known. 29And it shall be, when YHVH your Elohim has brought you into the land which you go to possess, that you shall put the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ěyḇal. 30Are they not beyond the Yarděn, toward the setting sun, in the land of the Kena‛anites who dwell in the desert plain opposite Gilgal, beside the terebinth trees of Moreh? 31For you are passing over the Yarděn to go in to possess the land which YHVH your Elohim is giving you, and you shall possess it and dwell in it, 32and shall guard to do all the laws and right-rulings which I am setting before you today.’
(James 2:17-18)
17So also belief, if it does not have works, is in itself dead. 18But someone might say, “You have belief, and I have works.” Show me your belief without your works, and I shall show you my belief by my works.
Sin
(Romans 5:12)
For this reason, even as through one man sin did enter into the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned
(1 John 3:4)
Everyone doing sin also does lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.
Yisrael
(Deuteronomy 7:6-13)
6“For you are a set-apart people to YHVH your Elohim. YHVH your Elohim has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a treasured possession above all the peoples on the face of the earth. “ 7YHVH did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more numerous than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples, 8but because of YHVH loving you, and because of Him guarding the oath which He swore to your fathers, YHVH has brought you out with a strong hand, and ransomed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh sovereign of Mitsrayim. 9“And you shall know that YHVH your Elohim, He is Elohim, the trustworthy Ěl guarding covenant and loving-commitment for a thousand generations with those who love Him, and those who guard His commands, 10but repaying those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them. He does not delay to do so with him who hates Him, He repays him to his face. 11“And you shall guard the command, and the laws, and the right-rulings which I command you today, to do them. 12“And it shall be, because you hear these right-rulings, and shall guard and do them, that YHVH your Elohim shall guard with you the covenant and the loving-commitment which He swore to your fathers, 13and shall love you and bless you and increase you, and shall bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flock, in the land of which He swore to your fathers to give you.
(Exodus 12:49)
“There is one Torah for the native-born and for the stranger who sojourns among you.”
(Genesis 15:18-21)
18On the same day YHVH made a covenant with Aḇram, saying, “I have given this land to your seed, from the river of Mitsrayim to the great river, the River Euphrates, 19with the Qěynite, and the Qenizzite, and the Qaḏmonite, 20and the Ḥittite, and the Perizzite, and the Repha’im, 21and the Amorite, and the Kena‛anite, and the Girgashite, and the Yeḇusite.”
The Church
(Matthew 24:14)
“And this Good News of the reign shall be proclaimed in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end shall come.
(Ephesians 2:10)
For we are His workmanship, created in Messiah Yeshua unto good works, which Elohim prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
(Ephesians 2:14-17)
14For He is our peace, who has made both one, and having broken down the partition of the barrier, 15having abolished in His flesh the enmity – the torah of the commands in dogma – so as to create in Himself one renewed man from the two, thus making peace, 16and to completely restore to favor both of them unto Elohim in one body through the stake, having destroyed the enmity by it. 17And having come, He brought as Good News peace to you who were far off, and peace to those near.
(1 John 1:7)
But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Yeshua Messiah His Son cleanses us from all sin.
(Isaiah 1:17)
“Learn to do good! Seek right-ruling, reprove the oppressor, defend the fatherless, plead for the widow.
(Exodus 22:22-24)
22“Do not afflict any widow or fatherless child. 23“If you do afflict them at all – if they cry out to Me at all, I shall certainly hear their cry, 24and My wrath shall burn and I shall kill you with the sword, your wives shall be widows and your children fatherless.
(James 1:22)
And become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
(James 1:26-27)
26If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is worthless. 27Clean and undefiled religion before the Elohim and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
(Romans 11:1-2)
1I say then, has Elohim rejected His people? Let it not be! For I also am of Yisra’ěl, of the seed of Aḇraham, of the tribe of Binyamin. 2Elohim has not rejected His people whom He knew beforehand. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Ěliyahu, how he pleads with Elohim against Yisra’ěl, saying,
(Romans 11:16-24)
16Now if the first-fruit is set-apart, the lump is also. And if the root is set-apart, so are the branches. 17And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, have been grafted in among them, and came to share the root and fatness of the olive tree, 18do not boast against the branches. And if you boast, remember: you do not bear the root, but the root bears you! 19You shall say then, “The branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.” 20Good! By unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by belief. Do not be arrogant, but fear. 21For if Elohim did not spare the natural branches, He might not spare you either. 22See then the kindness and sharpness of Elohim: on those who fell sharpness, but toward you kindness, if you continue in His kindness, otherwise you also shall be cut off. 23And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, shall be grafted in, for Elohim is able to graft them in again. 24For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more shall these who are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
The Return
(Zechariah 14:3-4)
3And YHVH shall go forth, and He shall fight against those nations, as He fights in the day of battle. 4And in that day His feet shall stand upon the Mount of Olives, which faces Yerushalayim on the east. And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, from east to west, a very great valley, and half of the mountain shall move toward the north and half of it toward the south.
(Acts 1:11)
who also said, “Men of Galil, why do you stand looking up into the heaven? This same Yeshua, who was taken up from you into the heaven, shall come in the same way as you saw Him go into the heaven.”
(Isaiah 11:4)
But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, and shall decide with straightness for the meek ones of the earth, and shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and slay the wrong with the breath of His lips.
(Matthew 16:27)
“For the Son of Aḏam is going to come in the esteem of His Father with His messengers, and then He shall reward each according to his works.
(Acts 17:31)
because He has set a day on which He is going to judge the world in righteousness by a Man whom He has appointed, having given proof of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”
(Psalms 96:13)
At the presence of YHVH. For He shall come, For He shall come to judge the earth. He judges the world in righteousness, And the peoples with His truth.
(Revelation 20:11-13)
11And I saw a great white throne and Him who was sitting on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and no place was found for them. 12And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before the throne, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged from what was written in the books, according to their works. 13And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and She’ol gave up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works.
(Revelation 21:4-5)
4“And Elohim shall wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, nor mourning, nor crying. And there shall be no more pain, for the former matters have passed away.” 5And He who was sitting on the throne said, “See, I make all matters new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and trustworthy.”
(Revelation 21:23-27)
23And the city had no need of the sun, nor of the moon, to shine in it, for the esteem of Elohim lightened it, and the Lamb is its lamp. 24And the nations, of those who are saved, shall walk in its light, and the sovereigns of the earth bring their esteem into it. 25And its gates shall not be shut at all by day, for night shall not be there. 26And they shall bring the esteem and the appreciation of the nations into it. 27And there shall by no means enter into it whatever is unclean, neither anyone doing abomination and falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
(Revelation 22:3-5)
3And no longer shall there be any curse, and the throne of Elohim and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. 4And they shall see His face, and His Name shall be upon their foreheads. 5And night shall be no more, and they shall have no need of a lamp or the light of the sun, because YHVH Elohim shall give them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.
