The Foundation of Ahava~Love Assembly

Where Israel awakens and the stranger finds refuge. Ahava~Love Assembly is rooted in the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. Our foundation is covenant relationship with Yahuah, faith in Yahusha Ha’Mashiach, obedience to the Word, and love that is demonstrated in how we live.

These statements express the convictions taught within our assembly. We encourage every reader to open the Scriptures, examine the passages in context, and seek understanding rather than relying on tradition alone.

1. YAHUAH — THE MOST HIGH

We believe Yahuah is the one true Eloah, Creator of heaven, earth, sea, and all that is in them. He is faithful to His covenant and worthy of our reverence, worship, love, and obedience. His character does not change with the customs of the world.

Scripture foundation: Deuteronomy 6:4–5 • Exodus 20:2–3 • Malachi 3:6 • Isaiah 45:5–6

2. YAHUSHA HA’MASHIACH — SON, REDEEMER & KING

We believe Yahusha is the Son of Yahuah, the Word made flesh, and the promised Mashiach. We do not teach a trinitarian understanding of Elohim. Yahusha lived without sin, gave His life, rose again, and calls His followers to faith, repentance, and obedience. Through him, the covenant promises and the call to walk in righteousness are made known.

Scripture foundation: John 1:14 • John 14:6 • Matthew 15:24 • Acts 2:22–24 • Revelation 14:12

3. TORAH — THE INSTRUCTION FOR RIGHTEOUS LIVING

We believe Yahuah’s Torah reveals His instruction for His people. We honor the seventh-day Shabbat, His appointed feasts, His instructions concerning clean and unclean foods, and His commandments for justice, holiness, family, and community. We seek to read the whole counsel of Scripture without placing man-made religious systems above the Word.

Scripture foundation: Deuteronomy 6:24–25 • Psalm 119:1–8 • Matthew 5:17–19 • 1 John 5:3

4. YASHAR’EL — AWAKENING, REPENTANCE & RESTORATION

We teach that the scattered descendants of Yashar’el are being called to remember their covenant identity, repent, and return to Yahuah. We examine the blessings and curses of Deuteronomy 28, the words of the prophets, and the promises of restoration. We also recognize the Scriptural place of the stranger who joins himself or herself to Yahuah and walks in His ways.

Scripture foundation: Deuteronomy 28 • Hosea 1:10 • Ezekiel 36:24–27 • Isaiah 56:6–7 • Romans 11:17–24

5. RUACH HAKODESH — THE SET-APART SPIRIT

We believe the Ruach HaKodesh is Yahuah’s Set-Apart Spirit—His presence and power at work among His people, not a separate third deity. The Ruach teaches, guides, convicts, strengthens, and leads us toward truth and obedience.

Scripture foundation: Ezekiel 36:26–27 • John 14:26 • John 16:13 • Acts 5:32

6. RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT & SET-APART LIVING

We believe covenant faith must shape everyday conduct: our speech, homes, relationships, business dealings, compassion, and treatment of others. We are called to repentance, justice, mercy, humility, and integrity—not outward appearance without inward transformation.

Scripture foundation: Micah 6:8 • Leviticus 19:2 • 1 Peter 1:15–16 • James 1:22

7. THE RESTORATION OF ALL THINGS

We believe Yahuah remains faithful to His promises and will bring about the restoration spoken of by His prophets. Our hope is anchored in His righteousness, His kingdom, and His power to gather and renew His people. We wait with faithfulness and discernment rather than setting dates or following speculation.

Scripture foundation: Amos 9:11–15 • Acts 3:19–21 • Jeremiah 31:31–34 • Revelation 21:1–5

8. OUR IDENTITY IS ROOTED IN COVENANT

We identify with Yashar’el and the heritage of Abraham, Yitshaq, and Ya’aqob. We do not define our walk by a modern religious label or passing trend. We seek to follow Yahusha, honor the Torah of Yahuah, and demonstrate our identity through repentance, faithful living, and love. The stranger who sincerely turns toward Yahuah is invited to learn and walk in His ways.

Scripture foundation: Genesis 17:7 • Deuteronomy 10:12–19 • John 8:31–32 • Isaiah 56:3–8
