We believe that there is but one G-d (Deu 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our G-d is one LORD: ), Creator, of all. We believe that Yahshua, is Yahweh's first born human son, who gave himself so we could be reconciled to Yahweh our Father. Yahweh raised up a Prophet, he is our brother, who became our high priest after the order of Melchisedec:Deu 18:15
“Yahweh your Elohim shall raise up for you a Prophet (Yahshua) like me from your midst, from your brothers. Listen to Him,Deu 18:16
according to all you asked of Yahweh your Elohim in Ḥorĕḇ in the day of the assembly, saying, ‘Let me not hear again the voice of Yahweh my Elohim, nor let me see this great fire any more, lest I die.’Deu 18:17
“And Yahweh said to me, ‘What they have spoken is good.Deu 18:18
‘I shall raise up for them a Prophet (Yahshua) like you out of the midst of their brothers. And I shall put My Words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him.Deu 18:19
‘And it shall be, the man who does not listen to My Words which He speaks in My Name, I require it of him.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Messiah was chosen by Yahweh to be that Prophet and Messiah who leads Yahweh's people out of Spiritual Egypt (bondage to sin), Yahshua chose to give his life and Ministry as a living sacrifice:
Joh 10:11
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.Joh 10:14 “I am the good shepherd.1 And I know MINE, and MINE know ME
Joh 10:15
even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for the sheep.Joh 10:17
“Because of this the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, in order to receive it again.Joh 10:18
“No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to receive it again. This command I have received from my Father.”Messiah was born into this world just as you and I (contrary to popular catholic belief) Joseph was his earth-father.
Mat 1:16
And Jacob brought forth Joseph the husband of Miryam, of whom was born Yahshua who is called Messiah.Luk 2:4
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Natsareth to Juḏah, to the city of Daviḏ, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of Daviḏ,Act 13:22
And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfill all my will.Act 13:23
Of this man's seed hath Yahweh according to his promise raised unto Israel a Savior, Yahshua:Act 2:29
“Men and brothers, let me speak boldly to you of the ancestor Daviḏ, that he died and was buried,1 and his tomb is with us to this day.Act 2:30
“Being a prophet, then, and knowing that Elohim had sworn with an oath to him: of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, to raise up the Messiah to sit on his throne,Act 2:31
foreseeing this he spoke concerning the resurrection of the Messiah, that His being was neither left in the grave, nor did His flesh see corruption.Act 2:32
“Elohim has raised up Yahshua, of which we are all witnesses.Act 2:33
“Therefore, having been exalted to the right hand of Elohim, and having received from the Father the promise of the Set-apart Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear.Act 2:34
“For Daviḏ did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself said, the LORD (Yahweh) said to my Lord (Yahshua), “Sit at My right hand,Act 2:35
until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”Act 2:36
“Therefore let all the house of Isra’ĕl know for certain that Elohim has made Yahshua, whom you impaled, both Master and Messiah.”--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yahshua gave himself, as we aught to, for we should walk as he did. His life was an example of how we should be.
Rom 12:1 I call upon you, therefore, brothers, through the compassion of Elohim, to present your bodies a living offering – set-apart, well-pleasing to Elohim – your reasonable worship.
Rom 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you prove what is that good and well-pleasing and perfect desire of Elohim.
Luk 9:23 And he said to them all, “If anyone wishes to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
Luk 9:24 “For whoever wishes to save his life (selfishness) shall lose it, but whoever loses his life (becomes a living sacrifice as Messiah did) for my sake shall save it. (eternal life)
