ABOUT US
We are a group of believers in Yeshua as Mashiach and Son of the Living God who are passionate about sharing our faith and sharing our understanding of the Hebrew roots of our faith. We are grafted into the tree of Abraham, wild olive branches, that wish to provide the resources that have helped us to others on the same journey. We observe the Seventh day Shabbat and the Feasts of the Lord.
This is a ministry is located in Martinsburg, West Virginia.
We recognized that this site became needed due to the great amount of misunderstanding that we see applied to the scriptures daily and we found no site that took the believer on the journey that we ourselves have taken (and are still on). We are to test the scriptures, search them, to know what is true as Paul states in Acts 17:11. We are also to search them contextually, not picking out phrases that support our mindset or theology, but using the entire counsel of God to reveal His intention and meaning. This is our desire.
The overall purpose of this site is to share our Savior, the Messiah Yeshua, in ways that are rarely seen in the modern Western "church", revealing the depth of meaning in the scriptures and interaction between the Old and New Testaments (or Covenants). We will usually refer to the New Testament as the brit Hadashah, Jesus the Christ as Yeshua the Messiah or Yeshua HaMashiach, and the Lord as Adonai or YHWH. We do not feel that this is required of anyone but simply do this out of our increasing desire to follow the roots of our faith. Our Lord is bigger than a name and knows what all the tongues on this earth call Him. Regardless of how He is called, it is our responsibility to call on Him and trust in Him, to grow in our faith, and to grow closer to the Lord daily.
