Messianic Worship

How does the Messianic form of religious faith differ from mainstream Christian belief? In a true sense, it is a return to a "whole Bible" basis for belief and worship. The New Testament, comprised of just 27 books, was never to be considered as a "replacement" for the Tenach, or Old Testament, nor are the New Testament writings the sole basis of our faith. The New Testament apostles refer to the Old Testament hundreds of times in explaining the basis of belief and doctrine. Nor has the Old Covenant been completely "abolished" in the New Covenant. It is instructive that the word "New" in Biblical Greek means a refreshed, revised, or "better" covenant. (Heb. 7:19, 22; 8:6; 12:24) Just as a butterfly does not represent an abolishing of his former self (the caterpiller), but a transformation, so too the New Covenant represents a transformed and improved form of the Old, firmly based and built upon the same original Biblical principles. (Heb. 7:12) We have more Messianic teaching available...

What is the Messianic view on Biblical Torah (Old Testament law)? We uphold New Testament teaching and "establish the law" (Rom. 3:31), believing that "not one jot or tittle" is removed for the believer (Matt. 5:17-19). However, under the New Covenant there is a transformation of law (Heb. 7:12). Yah's commands represent principles and precepts for us under the New Covenant, which has been called a "preceptive" view of Torah. Read more about God's law and the New Covenant...

The Ark Of The Covenant

Evangelist John Saba

Ark of the Covenant

Behold, the Mercy Seat! The everlasting grace, compassion, and long-suffering of Yah Almighty. See Hebrews 4:16.

Ten Commandments Tablet

The Ten Commandments! Let the transition be from tables of stone to tables of the heart. "I will put my laws in their mind and right them in their hearts..." (Heb. 8:10; Jer. 31:33)

Brazen Altar

The Brazen Altar represents the Ultimate Sacrifice! The Messiah gave Himself as a freewill offering, that you should not perish in your sins and trespasses. "So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many..." (Heb. 9:28)

Top of the Brazen Altar

Be you totally consumed in the will and purpose of YHWH's purifying flame. "For our YAH is a consuming fire." (Heb. 12:29)

The Lampstand

The Lampstand! Fill your lamps with oil and await the bridegroom, lest He move your candlestick out of its place. Rev. 2 and Matt. 25, the parable of the ten virgins. "By Him therefore, let us offer the sacrifice of praise to YAH continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to His name." (Heb. 13:15)

The Brazen Laver and the Incense Censer

ARE YOU WASHED IN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB?

To the left above is the Brazen Laver; to the right the incense censer.

The incense symbolizes the pure and precious prayers and petitions of His people.

"For whom YHVH loves, He chastens, and scorges every son whom He receives." -Heb. 12:6

The Table of Shewbread

"Man shall not live by bread alone..." (Matt. 4:4) The Messiah shall fill you with bread from His Father's table.

The Tree Of Life

Here we see the Tree of Life! The Hebrew alphabet constitutes the 22 building blocks of all creation. When YHVH speaks, people listen! See Hebrews 1:1-3

John Saba ministering

John Saba ministers in the Holy Priesthood after the order of Melchizedek. See Hebrews 12:7

Tabernacle Chart

YHWH manifests His plan of redemption in a way in which all men may come and learn of Him. See Heb. 9:6-7 This is illustrated in the mystery of the Tabernacle and its furnishings! YAH assembles His Yeshurun (His Upright Ones) for worship on the Holy Sabbath. (Deut. 32:15)

"Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." (Heb. 10:25)
