BRI is a Messianic work of grace! We are entirely rooted and established in grace. Grace is our theological perspective and our intention. We rely wholly and solely on grace for our salvation. We believe that Yeshua came from heaven as God's loving gift to humankind, whether Jew or Gentile. We hold to the Biblical assessment that God's eternal love has never altered since the first implosive ignition of the singularity from which came forth, through light, our universe. We stand here united by the great indisputable fact of salvation by grace through the faith OF Messiah (not through our faith!) exercised on behalf of His disciples, of whom we here are merely first. We depend entirely for our day-to-day salvation, and our eternal redemption. on the keeping power and unmerited grace
of Yeshua HaMashiach, and not on the keeping of law… not on the keeping of Torah. We are convicted in the fundamental Biblical axiom that the only source of deliverance from sin, forgiveness of sins and transgressions, and growth in grace, is the Messiah. Yeshua alone, the ever present spirit embodiment of the source form, the memra, the logos, of God. These are truths that we hold to be self-evident. Not only so, they are substantiated entirely from the written word of scripture and are not determined by feelings, emotions, promptings, inner desires or nigglings (nagging) of the precious Holy Spirit within. Equally undeniable is the fact that the primitive Jewish Christian community of faith perceived that the Torah was, for the people of God's grace, a way of grace.
So as not to misunderstand what is written within these pages of lectures please keep these statements in the forefront of your thoughts, and never forget that we do not teach salvation by works, or by keeping of the law!
