We Believe...
I. The G-d of Avraham, Yitzchak,
and Ya'akov (Abraham,Isaac, and Jacob)
is the one and only G-d.
II. We believe in the beginning
was the Word and the Word
was with G-d, and the Word was G-d.
We believe that this Word
was manifested in the form of Messiah.
We believe that Y'shua (Jesus)
is The promised and prophesied Messiah
who came to redeem mankind
and whom will rule as King
over Israel in the future
coming Kingdom of G-d.
And, we believe it is his Good News
that we are to proclaim.
III. We believe in the inerrancy
of scripture as found in Bereshit (Genesis)
through Revelation, and that it holds
authority in our lives.
IV. We believe that the Torah of Adonai
has not been abolished,
and the observance of it is still the valid
expressionof a G-dly faith...
not as a means of salvation,
but as theG-d given path of sanctification.
The Torah given to Moshe(Moses)
is the same Torah that Messiah
Y'shua has taught us toobserve.
We are taught not only to observe it,
but to also make disciples
in the name of Y'shua The Messiah
and to teach them to live Torah
pursuant lives (Matt. 5:16-19).
In addition, we believe
that the Torah was meant for
Israel and all Gentiles who join
it's commonwealth (Ephesians 2)
and takehold of its covenants
(Zechariah 8:23).
Any Gentiles joining themselves
to the Israel's commonwealth
will be welcomed with open arms and
will be treated as an equal citizen with
equalresponsibilities and privileges.
(B'midbar/Numbers15:15-16)
V. Love and unity.
We will strive to let love and unity
overcome when there is difference
in doctrine and practice.
What makes us unique?
We are a Messianic Jewish Congregation
that supports a Torah pursuant life
for those believers in Y'shua who
have either aJewish or a Gentile origin.
We also uphold the Biblical standard
of patriarchal leadership within its
organization andwithin its charter.
This means that first and foremost
we encourage men within the
commonwealth of Israel
to take their rightful roles in
Biblical leadership.
We believe this will be re-establishing
the good and perfect willof Adonai;
as Y'shua the Messiah established
only men to be one of the twelve
Emissaries and leaders
within the Messianic community.
In addition, Adonai chose only men
to write each book of the TeNaKh and
the Apostolic scriptures,
and only chose men to be
Kohanim (Priests) who were to
teach Israel His Torah.
Only in times when the men of Israel
would not take on their G-d given
responsibilities have exceptions been
made.
But, it is made clear in scripture that
this has always been to the shame of the men.
Any female leadership in Israel
(only example being the Judge Devorah)
was the exception,
but not the rule.
This was allowed because there were no
men who would accept
their leadership roles in Israel.
Rabbi Hillel once stated,
"In a place where there are no
men, strive to be a man".
** It should be noted that
we don't consider dance
leaders, worship leaders,
or Shammashim (Deacons) to
be under the above restriction.
Please note:
Metroplex Messianic Fellowship
doesn't support the following doctrines:
> Any form of replacement theology
> Two House / Ephraimite theology
> Sacred Name doctrine
> Aviv barley reckoning of the Mo'edim
> Lunar Sabbath doctrine
