The Christian Israelite Church combines both the teachings of the Old Testament (Israelite) and the New Testament (Christian). As particular aspects of the religion are outlined, you will see both these teachings observed.

Signing to be a Member

The primary requirement of membership is that one signs with their hand to the belief that the Books of Moses (Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy) and the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) have been given by the inspiration of God and has the desire to be guided by the same Power from God which also inspired the writing of the books.

 

This is the start of a journey in religious life, beginning by believing that Jesus died for the sins of all and observing the basic requirements of Christianity. "But if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised Him from the dead, though shalt be saved. For with a heart,man bleedeth unto righteousness, but with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation" Romans 10:9,10. ".....believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved and thy house" Acts 16:31. "He is the propitiation for our sins" 1 John 2:2; John 3:16. "Other foundation can no man lay than is laid, which is Jesus Christ" 1 Corinthians 3:11. See also Acts 15:19-20.

 

One makes a statement to this effect, and signs his or her name to affirm belief. This level of membership is referred to as an "Uncovenanted Member".

 

A further level of membership is open to a member who makes a Covenant with God to see to adhere to all the Laws and Commands given in the Old and New Testaments, as taught by the Church. This level of membership is referred to as a "Covenanted Member".
