Welcome to “The Restoration” movement.
Loving God & Loving Others
History
Believing in God’s Word and Spirit
Beyth-‘el is not a new Church. It is a divine place of worship that was first revealed to Jacob in a dream. (Genesis 28:16-19; Psalms 78:5) Jacob described this place as the House of God and the Gate of Heaven. Not only did Jacob get this revelation, but God confirmed that this was his holy habitation on earth in Genesis 31:13 when he said “I am the God of Beyth-‘el (Bethel). Moses told us that it is a commandment that we seek after this place all the days that we live upon the earth. (Deuteronomy 12:1-5); Solomon built a place which housed this name (1 Kings 5:5);And Isaiah said in the last days ALL NATIONS will come up to the place which was revealed to Jacob and confirmed by God.
(Isaiah 2:2-3). Because Jacob was the founder on earth, the name is sometimes described as the House of God or the House of Jacob.(Zech 7:2-3; Luke 1:33)Because Beyth-‘el was revealed to a Prophet in the bible, it and all the mysteries that go along with it have to be revealed to a prophet in the last days because it is a commandment that this system be established throughout the four corners of the Earth. This system cannot be duplicated because the mysteries are given to God’s chosen leader. (Deuteronomy 29:1,29, Amos 3:7; Ecclesiastes 12:11). Beyth-’el is the beginning of the restoration of God’s holy Kingdom.

Beliefs
Molding believers, influencing the world
- Belief in God: We believe in one God who is the creator of the universe. Unlike the Trinity, who believe that there are 3 distinct persons of the Godhead, we believe that there is one Person who takes on other forms
- Christ as the Savior: Christ is the central theme to our belief. We believe that Christ is the Son of God, lived a sinless life, died for the sins of humanity, and was resurrected. His life, death, and resurrection offer salvation to believers who keep his commandments.
- The Bible: The entire Bible is the inspired word of God and is used as the guide for faith and practice. It is a key element in understanding God and living a righteous life.
- Salvation: The concept of salvation is central. We believe that salvation is a gift from God, made possible by Christ sacrifice, and that it is received through faith in him. We believe that faith without works is dead and that salvation involves loving Christ with all of your heart and keeping his Holy commandments.
- The Church: The church is viewed as the “called out believers” who gather for worship, fellowship, and ministry. It’s also seen as the body of Christ on Earth, with a mission to spread the Gospel and serve others. The true Church is not based off of race, but is graphed in through the circumcision of the heart.
- The Sacraments: We believe in baptism in his true Holy Hebrew name as well as the taking of communion during the time appointed by Christ
- The Afterlife: We believe in an afterlife where believers are rewarded in heaven, and those who do not accept Christ face separation from God.
- The Holy Feast Days: We believe in celebrating all of the Holy Feast days found in Leviticus 23rd chapter as well as the New/Full moon, the Feast of Purim, and the Feast of Dedication(Chanukkah).
- The Future We believe in the bodily return of Christ to earth, the resurrection of the dead, the final judgment, and the establishment of God’s eternal kingdom. All believers will live forever in the presence of God, while those who reject Christ will be separated from God eternally (Revelation 21:1-4; Matthew 25:31-46; 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).
- Christian Living We believe that every believer is called to live a life of holiness and obedience to God, empowered by the Holy Spirit. We are called to love our neighbors, serve the poor, seek justice, and share the message of salvation with others (Matthew 22:37-40; Matthew 28:18-20; Romans 12:1-2).
We affirm these doctrines with full conviction, trusting in God’s grace and relying on His guidance as we seek to live according to His will. May this Statement of Faith serve as a foundation for our worship, fellowship, and mission as a community of believers in Christ.
