The Names – Yahuwah and Amanuwal are Spoken Here!
We, the members of Yahuwah’s Assembly in Louisville, Kentucky, base our faith on the inspired sacred Scriptures known as Ha’Kadosh Bible. We recognize love as the basis of our faith. It is the commitment of the dedicated members of this assembly to fulfill the two great commandments as stated by our Savior in Matthew 22:37-40. “Amanuwal replied: ‘Love Yahuwah your Aluhym with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Amanuwal’s teaching comes directly from the Torah. The first and greatest commandment is declared in Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and the second greatest commandment is stated in Leviticus 19:18. Love is the basic foundation in both of these commandments. These two great commandments are at the root of all the other commandments in Yahuwah’s covenant Law. The love described here reflects the Ruwach of the entire Law of Yahuwah. Yahuwah has expressed His love for mankind through the gift of His Son (John 3:26-21). Yahuwah is love (1 John 4:7-8, 16). Love is all important to our faith as true believers and followers in/of Yahuwah and Amanuwal (1 Corinthians 13).
As believers in and followers of Yahuwah and Amanuwal, it is our endeavor to fulfill these two great commandments by having the Law of Yahuwah written in our minds and hearts (Jeremiah 31:31-33; Hebrews 8:8-11; Hebrews 10:16-18). This can only be accomplished as we become Spiritual Israelites who have been circumcised in heart and mind to walk by the rules of Yahuwah’s Covenant law (Romans 2;28-29; Galatians 6:15-16). We believe that those who possess the true love of Yahuwah will willingly keep Yahuwah’s commandments as an expression of that love (1John 5:1-3). Those who know Amanuwal keep His commandments and walk as He walked (1 John 2:3-6). Amanuwal identified His true disciples as having Philadelphia love for one another (John 13:34-35). He further stated that we must love one another as He loved us (John 15:12-13) and that those who love, as Amanuwal loved, will willingly lay down their lives for their brethren.
With the knowledge of what the true love of Yahuwah is, it is our endeavor to bring forth the attributes attached to the Philadelphia Assembly as given in Revelation 3:7-13. They kept Amanuwal’s word (i.e. the commandments of Yahuwah – John 14:21-24) and did not deny His Name. For their dedication, they will be given protection during the great tribulation at the end of the age (Revelation 3:10). Prophetically speaking, end-time true worshipers are described as keeping the commandments of Yahuwah and having the testimony and faith of Amanuwal Ha’Mashyach (Revelation 12:17 and 14:12). It is therefore our commitment to obey Yahuwah’s Covenant Law through love. Having Philadelphia love means having love for the brethren and by extension for all people. Amanuwal has told us to love our neighbor and to even love our enemies (Matthew 5:42-44). In keeping with that, it is our endeavor to love all people regardless of gender, race, creed, color, religion, or nationality. The Ruwach house of Yahuwah’s people shall be called a house of prayer for all people (Isaiah 56:6-8).
We understand that in these last days, Almighty Yahuwah is causing His people to return to Him through the keeping of His Law. By means of the same prophetic message proclaimed by the Old Testament prophet EliYahu (i.e. teaching the people that Yahuwah is the true Aluhym), He is turning His people back to the true faith (Malachi 4:4-6). His Son, Amanuwal the Messiah, is the Word made flesh (John 1:14) and as such He is the physical manifestation of Yahuwah’s perfect Law, the law of liberty, which is able to save our souls (James 1:21-25). We therefore, understand our responsibility to prove our love for Yahuwah, Amanuwal, our fellow man by keeping Yahuwah’s Torah (1 John 5:3; John 14:15). By doing this from the heart, we prove our faith to Yahuwah so that we might be reckoned as righteous in Yahuwah’s sight (James 2:14-26).
As people of faith, we are responsible to exercise our faith through our works (i.e. the keeping of Yahuwah’s commandments). The good works of the Law which we bring forth are the proof of our faith. We understand that we are saved by grace and not by our works (Ephesians 2:8-10).
Salvation is a free gift from Yahuwah which cannot be earned. It is given to those who make a covenant with Almighty Yahuwah through the shed blood of our Savior (Romans 3:21-26) while remaining faithful to the end (Matthew 24:13).
We have determined that Yahuwah’s Word (i.e. His Law) is the Truth (John 17:17) and that the Truth sanctifies Yahuwah’s people and sets them free from the bondage of sin (John 8:31-36) and its destructive ways (Romans 6:23). Sin is the transgression (i.e. breaking) of the Law (1 John 3:4). It can only be recognized through knowledge of Yahuwah’s Law (Romans 7:7). Without that knowledge it is impossible to know what sin is, and therefore it is impossible to repent (turn back to Yahuwah).
Those who worship Yahuwah must do so in Ruwach and in truth (John 4:23-24). It is our commitment to possess and maintain Yahuwah’s Ruwach Ha’Kadosh in our lives and within the body of believers by obeying the truth of Yahuwah’s Covenant Law (Acts 5:32). We seek to be a Spiritual people in Yahuwah’s sight by being conceived anew through water (water baptism into the name of Amanuwal) and through Ruwach (Yahuwah’s Ruwach Kadosh) and thereby gain entrance into the Kingdom of Yahuwah. This is a part of the conversion process which begins when a person recognizes the need to repent and to make changes from within, and then undergoes baptism. That process will culminate in a physical transformation into a Ruwach being upon Amanuwal’s return (John 3:3-7; 1 Corinthians 15:35-54).
As members of this assembly, we have joined together to do the will of the Almighty Yahuwah by living our lives in subjection to Him as personal witness, and by collectively proclaiming the truth of Yahuwah’s Word until our Savior returns. With this endeavor and knowledge, we therefore put forth our “Statements of Belief” as a testimony of our faith, as brethren in Ha’Mashyach Amanuwal and to define the major foundational tenets of our beliefs in regard to the plan of salvation.
