No More Silence

We are breaking the silence now that the High Holy Days had passed and resume our weekly activities at Beth El.

Starting this Friday night we will celebrate Shabbat together so join us in song, prayer and teaching of Torah.

See you then...

Statements of Faith

We affirm with perfect faith... Anachnu ma'aminim b'emunah shleymah: ...That the entire Bible, the Tanach and Brit Chadasha (Old and New Testaments) is the only divinely inspired, infallible, and eternal Word of God, which applies to today's world as at the time of its creation. (II Timothy 3:16; I Peter 1:20-21) ...That the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is One, Echad, a complex unity that exists and has revealed Himself to mankind as our Father in Heaven; Yeshua Ha'Moshiach, His Son; and the Ruach Ha'Kodesh, the Holy Spirit. (Is. 48:16; I John 5:7) ...That Yeshua is the Messiah of Israel; is the Word of God revealed to mankind in the flesh; was born of a virgin; had a ministry on earth; died on a tree for our sins; was resurrected three days following His death; and ascended to Heaven to intercede on our behalf to the Father. (Zech. 14:9; Luke 24:44-47) ...That the Jewish nation, Israel, is God's Chosen People. God made an eternal covenent with them regarding the Messiah and the Land of Israel. (Deut. 7:6-10) ...Jews and Gentiles must both be cleansed of sin by the shed blood of Yeshua the Messiah. Jews who accept Yeshua remain Jews and non-Jews who accept Yeshua both become Born Again in the Spirit, and remain Jews and non-Jews respectively. They both join the Body of Messiah and inherit eternal life. (Eph 2:11-13) ...Salvation from eternal separation from God and the forgiveness of sin can only be achieved through faith in Yeshua and His atonement of blood. (Rom. 10:9; I Thess. 1:10) ...That Jewish followers of Yeshua should maintain their cultural, ethnic, and Biblical identities by remaining faithful to their heritage. Jewish Believers remain a part of Israel while becoming part of the Body of Messiah. ...That salvation and a right relationship with God is achieved only through grace and faith, not the works of the Law. The Law is God-given for moral instruction for both Jews and non-Jews, and a distinct national/ethnic identity for Israel. The Law, while not essential for Salvation, is still an important part of following God's will and living in His presence. Faith in Yeshua, who fulfilled the Law, does not mean that the Law is no longer relevant in our lives. (Deut. 30:11-20; Deut. 6:20-25; Ps. 19:7-14; Matt. 5:17-19; Rom. 3:27-31; 6:23) ...That the nation of Israel is Biblically ordained by God and those who stand with the Nation will be blessed. (Gen. 12:1-3; Is. 11)
