Man Hu Ministries Statement of Faith:

While we believe that life-style is more important than creed, Man Hu affirms the following fundamental statements of faith. We realize the need for unity of belief in the fundamentals, but recognize liberty in those areas which are important, but are not central to faith.

  1. We believe that the Bible, both the Tanakh (Old Testament) and the Apostolic Scriptures (New Testament) is the only inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of G-d (Ex 24:4-8; 2Tim 3:16-17).
  2. We believe in one G-d as He has revealed Himself in the bible and that the meaning of the word one in the Hebrew language (echad) refers to G-d as a compound unity (Deut 6:4; Mark 12:28-30; Eph 4:3-6)/
  3. We believe Yeshua (Jesus) was born of a virgin, is the only begotten Son of G-d, the Messiah, the Eternal One in whom all the fullness of the deity dwells in bodily form and who is the Word (TORAH) who became flesh and dwelt among us a Savior, L-rd, Redeemer of mankind and soon-coming King (John 1:1-14; Col 2:9; Ps 2; Heb 1:1-2).
  4. We believe that the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) indwells all true Believers and will comfort, teach, lead, and empower those who obey and walk with Him (Zech 4;6; John 14:15-17, 25-26; Eph 5:26).
  5. We believe that all have sinned and need to be redeemed. This salvation-redemption is by G-d's grace and cannot be earned by human merit. We are redeemed in our personal lives by faith in Yeshua's sacrificial death and resurrection, which provides complete atonement for all who commit their life to Him. True saving faith will be evidenced by the fruit of G-d's Spirit and works of covenantal love (Deut 7:9; Ps 51:1-2; Romans 1:16-17; 3:21-26; Eph 2:8-9).
  6. We believe in the continuity of G-d's covenant with the physical descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; and that part of the fulfillment of the covenant is the physical return of the people of Israel to the Promised Land as spoken by the prophets. We believe in the spiritual unity and equality of all believers in Messiah (Eph 2:11-22).
  7. We believe in the literal, physical return of Messiah to rule and reign upon the throne of David in Jerusalem (Ps 2; 2Sam 7:12-13, 16; Zech 14; Acts 1:11; Rev 19-20).
  8. We believe in t he resurrection and judgment of the righteous to eternal life and the wicked to eternal separation from G-d (Dan 12:1-3; Matt 25:31-46; 2Cor 5:10; Heb 9:27; 1Cor 15; Rev 20-21).

Man Hu Statement of Practice:

Members of Man Hu Ministries endeavor to do the following:

  1. Love G-d with our whole hearts and love our neighbors as ourselves (Deut 6:4; Lev 19:18, 34; Matt 22:37-40; 5:43-45; Gal 5:14).
  2. Teach sound Biblical doctrines (Ps 15:2; Eph 4:15).
  3. Live a life characterized by integrity, ethical behavior, and morality (Ps 25:21; Prov 11:20; Matt 5-7).
  4. Be an example of godly character (Micah 6:8; 1Tim 4:12; Gal 5:16-23).
  5. Support the Jewish people, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and their eternal possession of the land of Israel by blessing the nation and people of Israel and praying for the peace of Jerusalem (Gen 12:3; Is 40:1; Ps 122:6; Romans 9:11).
