Statement of Faith
Statement of Faith
Restoration Fellowship International
The One True God: We affirm the existence of one God—Yahweh (Jehovah)—revealed as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, eternally coexistent in divine unity.
Jesus Christ (Messiah Yeshua): We confess the full deity and humanity of Jesus Christ: His eternal pre-existence, miraculous conception, virgin birth, sinless life, atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension, and present intercession as Messiah and Lord.
The Authority of Scripture: We uphold the entire Bible—both the Tanakh (Old Testament) and the Apostolic Writings (New Testament)—as the inspired, infallible Word of God, given for faith, instruction, and righteousness.
New Testament Doctrine: We establish doctrine for faith, practice, governance, and discipline upon the foundation of the New Testament, interpreted through the lens of covenantal continuity.
The Gospel of the Kingdom: We proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom as the unified message of Scripture, preached from both the First and New Covenants, revealing Messiah’s redemptive reign.
Justification by Faith: We affirm that personal righteousness comes by grace through faith alone in the atoning death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Water Baptism: We practice water baptism as an outward sign of inward grace. The mode of baptism—immersion, sprinkling, or pouring—is determined by the convictions of each participating ministry or congregation.
Holy Communion (The Lord’s Supper): We celebrate Holy Communion as a sacred remembrance of Messiah’s sacrifice. The form—open or closed communion—is honored according to the convictions of each ministry or congregation.
Covenantal Brotherhood: We affirm the inherent brotherhood of all believers through the grace covenant of Jesus Christ, transcending ethnicity, gender, and background.
Prophetic Restoration of the Church: We believe in the ongoing prophetic restoration of the Body of Christ worldwide, preparing the Church for the second advent of her Lord.
Restoration of Israel: We affirm the prophetic restoration and salvation of the Jewish people and the nation of Israel in the last days, in fulfillment of covenantal promises.
Pre-Millennial Return of Messiah: We anticipate the pre-millennial second coming of Jesus Christ to establish the visible Kingdom of God on earth.
Resurrection and Immortality: We believe in the resurrection of the dead and the glorification of both the living and the departed saints at Messiah’s appearing, unto eternal life.
