A GUIDE TO THE NAZARENE WAY (TEWAHIDO/COMMUNION WITH THE TRUE GOD)

The New Birth: We are born again, joined to YESHUWA: Eyesus Kristos, in TRIUNE BAPTISM (by water, by spirit, by fire). Iyesus of NAZRET (Matt 2:23; Acts 24:5) revealed The Way to follow Him and how we must enter H.I.M. (God’s) Eternal Kingdome. We must FIRST be “Born Again” (John 3:3) “Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God (His Majesty) ” (John 3:5; Acts 8:37). By receiving the TRUE KRSTOS, the WOLID (Son) , we become the Righteousness of HIS MAJESTY, Our Father—ABBA, who some say is their “God” and called YAH (Jah—Psalm 68:4). Salvation follows LIVING FAITH (Romans 10:10), which is more than “belief”, more “acceptance of Truth” (Revelation 3:14).

In this we have forgiveness of sins (errors; missing the mark of His Way), more than just a mental acceptance of KRSTOS and H.I.M. Teachings, True Faith begins at the HEART. ONENESS—TEWAHIDO (Union; “You and I as One”; I and I) with the LIVING God through His Kristos, a right and full relationship with the Holy Trinity, and the restoration of our full Humanity. Qdus Paulos likens it to the joining of husband and wife. (Ephesians 5:23-32) Herein is the “Marriage of the LAMB”. YESHUWA (Yesus) died on a cross (the Tree), was buried, and ROSE again by the Power of the ABBA. Likewise, in Triune Baptism, we die to sin; then, buried with Kristos and risen with H.I.M., we are united to Kristos (I and I) and to His Body, the TRUE Church. We are cleansed, justified and sanctified by HIS WORD (Eph 5:26) – All in Triune Baptism, “the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit” (Titus 3:5).

How To Remain United With H.I.M.:

TEWAHIDO There are 5 (phi) necessary Elements for LIVING

FAITH—united with God. Beginning with AMEN

(FAITH—Rev 3:14) there is a four-fold WAY outlined for the TRUE CHURCH in Acts of the Apostles 2:42 as follows:

TEACHING, FELLOWSHIP, BREAKING BREAD
(Communion; Love Feast) and PRAYER.

Keep the Sabbath (7th Day—Saturday) Holy!

KEEP THE KING’S LAW & THE TESTIMONY OF THE KING’S SON (Commandments & Testimony)!
