About
Who We Are & What We Believe
Our group is coordinated by some local men in conjunction with the heads-of-household of our most regular families.
Although the Mid-VT Fellowship is a federation of individuals, families, and house churches, our community shares these beliefs in common:
There is one true God (YHVH/YHWH), the revealed eternal Creator of all.
There is one people (Israel) with whom God has made His covenant.
All are welcome to join this covenant, not based on ancestry, ethnicity, nationality, or dispensation.
There is one way for all people to enter covenant with God: through repentance and faith in Yeshua (Jesus), the Son of God, who died and resurrected to serve as our high priest.
Because the converted and circumcised heart loves God, we keep His ways and live the way Yeshua and the apostles did on earth. This includes: remembering the Sabbath day (7th day of the week) to keep it holy (set-apart), observing God’s appointed times and feasts, eating according to the biblical definition of what is permissible for food, wearing tassels, and upholding the whole Bible as a valid and applicable authority in our lives.
Through prayer and study, fear and trembling, we are to work out our own salvation. We recognize and support individual family sovereignty and the duty of each to pursue truth.
Other details of doctrine and theology should be discussed in patience and love among the brethren.
(People sometimes use category terms such as “Pronomian Christianity”, “Hebrew Roots”, “Torah Observant”, “Messianic”, “Sabbatarian”, “Biblical Christianity”, or others to try and describe the Way, or biblical belief system that Yeshua taught and that the early disciples walked. While each of these labels may hold some truth, there is much about each category which many of our group do not associate with. We have yet to come up with a perfect label.)
