Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh)

We believe in the present ministry of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit

(1 Corinthians 12) as well as the infilling of the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh) of the believers.  Through the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh) the commandments (Torah) are written in our hearts and minds and enables us to live a Torah-observant life as Messiah commanded (Jeremiah 31:31-34; Ezekiel 36:26-27).  This in no way earns you salvation or merits with YHVH.  It is because we are His people and love Him that we live according to His commandments.

“Then Peter said to them, ‘Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Yeshua (Jesus) Messiah for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.’”  Acts 2:38

 
Resurrection

We believe in the resurrection of both the believer and unbeliever. The redeemed to everlasting joy in the presence of YHVH and the lost to  eternal damnation and separation from YHVH.

“Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth– those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.”  John 5:28-29

 
Seventh Day Sabbath

We believe the weekly Sabbath is the seventh day of the week.  It was designed and created as the day of rest (to cease Genesis 2:2-3) and to have a Holy Convocation by YHVH.  YHVH gave this to His people as part of His Covenant.  It was given to be a sign of His Covenant forever.  It is the only commandment which is also a feast (Leviticus  23:2-4). 

The Children of Israel were told to “Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it Holy.”  They would not have been told to remember something that was just being given for the first time.  It was originally setup at the beginning of creation.  It is so important to YHVH that it made the top ten list, The Ten Commandments.  It’s also one of the ten that YHVH wrote with His own finger.  History and Scripture proves that the seven day week has never been lost or changed (Exodus 31:16; Isaiah 58:13-14; Matthew 12:8).  He gave it to His people as part of His covenant and it “Is a sign of His covenant forever” (Exodus 31:12-17; Ezekiel 20:20).  The Sabbath is a weekly “feast unto YHVH”.

 
Feasts

We observe the seven annual Feasts of YHVH and two Biblical feasts.  These were given by the Father, for the Father.  They are YHVH’s Feasts, not Jewish feasts.  They foretell of the Kingdom that we will one day share with Messiah.

 

 

The TABS below has each feast and where you can find it’s specifications in scripture:

Please note that Purim and Chanukah are not commanded feasts, but they are biblical.

 

  • Purim

  • Shavuot
    The word Shavuot means weeks, and the festival of Shavuot marks the completion of the seven-week counting period between Passover and Shavuot. The date of Shavuot is directly linked to that of Passover. On Passover, the people of Israel were freed from their enslavement to Pharaoh; on Shavuot they were given the Torah at Mount Sinai, and became a nation committed to serving God.
