The registered goals of our organization are: providing religion and education services to the members of the (religious) congregation, as well as help and support to the needy and non-profit organizations that assist the needy in Israel. Our humanitarian aid is provided to all people, regardless of their beliefs or lifestyles, as long as they are eligible socio-economically to receive the relevant aid.
Nevertheless, as a messianic/Christian faith-based religious organization, and according to the organization's registered goals, we provide religious services to our members and participants, as long as they hold and accept the core values of the organization's belief system in various areas of life. Members' and participants' lifestyles that do not comply with the organization's core religious beliefs—such as lifestyles involving substance abuse, sexual abuse, domestic violence, racism, crime, financial misconduct, bullying, divorce and remarriage outside of biblical principles, abortions, genetic engineering, etc.—might affect and/or limit their participation and/or membership in the organization to preserve the religious organization's right to freedom of religion.
Regarding human sexuality: based on our understanding of the Bible, we believe that it is God's intention for sexual relations to occur within a lifelong, exclusive covenantal union between one adult woman (by birth) and one adult man (by birth). Any practice of sexual relations outside of that union—such as pornography, non-covenantal sexual relations, LGBTQ2+ sexual relations, etc.—does not align with our core faith beliefs, based on our understanding of the Bible (Gen. 2:24-25; Ex. 20:14, 17, 22:19; Lev. 18:22-23, 20:13, 15-16; Matt. 19:4-6, 9; Rom. 1:18-31; I Cor. 6:9-10, 15-20; I Tim. 1:8-11; Jude 7).
We also believe that God created the human race male and female, and any conduct with the intent to adopt a gender other than one’s birth gender does not align with our core faith beliefs (Gen. 1:27; Deut. 22:5). Such practices and/or conduct (unlike orientation) might also limit participation and/or membership in the organization.
We welcome discussions with anyone who is interested in understanding more about our religious views, as described above.
