Harei Yeshua is a Messianic Jewish Congregation. We are a congregation of Jews and non-Jewish believers in Yeshua(Jesus). You will find the style of worship and order of service to be quite different from both a traditional church and a traditional Jewish synagogue. Our Vision Our vision is based on The Messianic Scriptures in Isaiah 61:1-3 And Isaiah 42:6-7 To Preach Good News (the Gospel) to the poor in spirit To Bind up the Broken Hearted Our vision is based on The Messianic Scriptures in Isaiah 61:1-3 And Isaiah 42:6-7 To Preach Good News (the Gospel) to the poor in spirit To bind up the broken hearted To proclaim freedom for those held captive by sin Release from darkness for the prisoners To proclaim the year of the L-rd's favor and the day of vengeance for our G-d To comfort those who grieve in Zion, to bestow on them a crown pf beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of the spirit of despair To tell the Chosen people of the Brit hadashah ( New Covenant) To be a light for the Gentiles
Our Statement of Faith We believe that the Bible (Old and New Covenants) is the inspired, and only infallible, inerrant Word of G-d. We view it as the final authority in matters of faith and practice. We believe that there is one G-d, eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe in the deity and humanity of Yeshua the Messiah; in His virgin birth; in His sinless life; in His miracles; in His vicarious, atoning death; in His bodily resurrection; in His ascension to the right hand of the Father; and in His personal return, in power, to establish His kingdom. We believe that all men, apart from the regeneration work of the Holy Spirit are lost. Sinners experience salvation by G-d's grace, through faith in Yeshua. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, who indwells all believers and enables them to live godly lives. The gifts of the Holy Spirit are valid for today, and need to be expressed according to Scriptural guidelines. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost. Those who are saved will be raised to eternal life, and the lost will be raised to eternal damnation. We believe in the spiritual unity of all believers in Yeshua, and that this unity does not eliminate individual identity. We believe in G-d's everlasting covenant with Israel, and that in the end times all of Israel will turn to G-d and accept Yeshua as its Messiah. We believe that the Torah (Law of Moses) was not given as a means of salvation, but as a revelation of G-d's moral principles. Therefore, we need to study it, along with the rest of Scripture, to determine how to live a godly life. (II Timothy 3:16 Congregation Harei Yeshua is now part of the Sierra Butte Southern Baptist Association of Churches. This means that we agree with the purpose and statement of faith of these churches and will work with them to fulfill the commission given by Yeshua our Messiah in Acts 1:8.
