About Beth Simchat

Beth Simchat HaMashiach is Hebrew for, “The House of Joy in The Messiah”. We are a Nazarene Messianic Congregation of Jews and non-Jews who worship Yeshua (Jesus), the Messiah as prophesied in the Tanakh (Old Covenant) and revealed in the B’rit Hadassah (New Covenant).
We believe in the God who is echad, one in corporal unity, as God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. We also believe the only way to receive atonement for sin is through the acceptance of the shed blood sacrifice God provided through His Son Yeshua. It is by this means only that the free gift of eternal life is received.
We are not a “two-house” congregation; by this we mean we do not agree that Gentiles are actually part of the Ephraimite line and are now therefore Jewish. Were such the case, it would have been moot for Paul to ask the Gentiles to provoke the Jews to enviousness of Messiah, if indeed all the Gentiles were in actuality, Jews.
We believe in the use of all the spiritual gifts, as long as such usage is in agreement with Scripture. This mean that if one were to engage in a tongue, or language unknown to the congregation, an interpretation is mandatory.

We believe that the Jewish sacred writings identify Messiah and that the Rabbis are not free to teach him within modern day Judaism.  We believe that the best way to provoke today’s Jewish people to envy is to live the fullness of life found only in Yeshua–the Living Torah.
