Statement of Faith
In one sentence: we affirm the historic essentials of the Christian faith, and we gather on the Sabbath, celebrating the feasts Yeshua celebrated, as a rhythm of love. The essentials come first, so let’s start there.
Part One · The Essentials
If you grew up with the historic creeds, nothing here will surprise you. It’s common ground, held without crossed fingers.
John 1:1, 14 · Isaiah 53 · Acts 1:11
We believe Yeshua (Jesus) is fully divine and fully human, the promised Messiah of Israel and the Savior of the world. Born of a virgin, He lived a sinless life, died as an atoning sacrifice for our sins, rose bodily on the third day, ascended to the right hand of the Father, and will return to establish His Kingdom.
Ephesians 2:8-10
Salvation is a free gift of God, received by grace through faith in Yeshua the Messiah alone. No one earns salvation through works or Torah observance. Genuine faith then naturally produces a desire to walk in God’s ways, as a response of love and gratitude, never as a means of being saved.
Deuteronomy 6:4
We believe in one God, the Creator of heaven and earth, revealed in Scripture as Father, through His Son Yeshua, and by His Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh). He is sovereign, eternal, unchanging, and faithful to His covenant promises.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
The entire Bible, Genesis to Revelation, is the inspired, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God. Torah, Prophets, Writings, and the Apostolic Scriptures form one unified story revealing the character and will of the Almighty, with Yeshua at its center.
Jeremiah 31:33 · Acts 2:1-4
The Holy Spirit is the promised Comforter sent by the Father through Yeshua, empowering believers to live righteously, understand Scripture, exercise spiritual gifts, and bear fruit that glorifies God, writing His instruction on our hearts as the prophets foretold.
Revelation 19:11-16 · Zechariah 14:9
Yeshua will return to establish His Kingdom on earth, reigning from Jerusalem. The dead in Messiah will be resurrected, and all who belong to Him will reign with Him. We eagerly await His return and the restoration of all things.
The only question that matters
“You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”
Matthew 16:16
Everything below flows from that one confession. We’d rather be known by who we say Yeshua is.
Part Two · The Rhythm
Sabbath, feasts, Torah: we keep these because they’re a gift, the same rhythms Yeshua Himself lived. They’re how we worship, never how we’re saved. Nobody here will ever measure your faith by your calendar or your plate.
God’s instructions are eternal, good, holy, and still speak today. Yeshua did not come to abolish the Torah but to fulfill it, showing us how to walk in it by the power of the Spirit. We keep its rhythms as acts of love and obedience, never as requirements for salvation.
Matthew 5:17-19
The seventh-day Sabbath, Friday sunset to Saturday sunset, was woven into creation, codified at Sinai, and kept by Yeshua Himself. It is a weekly gift of rest, worship, and family that points to the deeper rest we have in Messiah. That’s why we gather on Saturdays.
Genesis 2:2-3 · Mark 2:27
The appointed times of the LORD (Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Shavuot, Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot) are prophetic rehearsals revealing God’s redemptive plan through Yeshua. We celebrate them as family formation and living memory, together.
Leviticus 23 · Colossians 2:16-17
Through faith in Yeshua, believers from all nations are grafted into the commonwealth of Israel, one new man, united by faith, walking together. There is no second-class citizenship in this house, and no ethnic scoreboard.
Romans 11:17-24 · Ephesians 2:11-22
How we hold it
We gather on Sabbath around Yeshua and the Scriptures He loved. Salvation is grace through Him. We take the whole Bible seriously, but Torah here is a gift you get to open, never a bar you clear to belong. Nobody’s keeping score on how you keep it.
And this isn’t a one-man show: FIT is led by a real team of pastors and leaders who answer to each other: teaching, operations, children, worship.
336 teachings are free right here. Or better: come see for yourself. Breakfast’s at 10 on Saturday.
