If you have decided to become a follower of the Messiah, What’s Next?
Salvation is the free gift of HaShem brought to sinful man by the unconditional grace of HaShem and received solely by personal faith in the completed redemptive work of Adonai Yeshua HaMashiach. We believe that salvation comes by faith in the Person and completed work of Yeshua, plus nothing else!
Because of the fact of the eternal, unconditional, and unilateral promise of HaShem, because of the nature of the Word and promises of HaShem, and because of the immutability of the unchangeable covenants of HaShem, all the redeemed, blood-bought, regenerate, and sanctified children of HaShem have entered into an unbreakable relational covenant with Him, are completely and permanently indwelt by Ruach HaKodesh, and are constantly interceded for by Yeshua HaMashiach, our Kohen HaGadol. They are therefore secure in Mashiach forever.

foundation of the world, for His own purpose and for His own glory,
The Scriptures refer to these individuals as His “elect,” all of whom have had their names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life from before the foundation of the world.

We believe that sanctification is a “setting apart” of the believer unto HaShem and that it consists of three steps or stages in the believer’s life: positional sanctification, progressive sanctification, and ultimate sanctification. We believe that all Believers in Mashiach should live in obedience to Torah and in such a manner as not to bring reproach upon their Savior and Lord, and that separation from all religious apostasy and sinful pleasures, practices, and associations is commanded by HaShem. We believe that the Torah is the standard of righteousness by which each “saint” is to conduct his/her life.
