Its Accomplishment
We believe that anyone who by faith trusts Messiah Yeshua as Redeemer and Lord and repents of his sin is immediately forgiven his sins and becomes a “new creation,” born from above. This salvation is not accomplished by any human effort or meritorious act; it is accomplished only by faith in the atoning sacrifice of Yeshua the Messiah, which faith is given by God to the believer as a gracious gift (Genesis 15:6; Leviticus 17:11; Deuteronomy 9:4-6; Habakkuk 2:4; John 1:12,13, John 3:3; Acts 2:37-39; Romans 1:16,17, 3:28, 8:9,15-17; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Ephesians 1:7, 2:8,9,19; Titus 3:5).

Its Effect
The redemption of man leads to a New Birth. (John 3:3-6; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 6:15). The result of our spiritual birth is that we become the righteousness of God in Messiah (2 Corinthians 5:21), we become partakers of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4), our mind is renewed continually (Romans 12:2; Colossians 3:10) and our body becomes a dwelling place for God Spirit (Ezekiel 36:26, 27; 2 Corinthians 3:16; Romans 8:9). Although the regenerated believer still struggles with the power of sin through his flesh, he is free from the strongholds of the Adamic nature and the law of sin and death, and is securely “in Messiah” (Romans 5:17,18, 6:1-11; 7:15-8:2; Galatians 2:20; 1 John 1:8,9) We believe that all believers are kept eternally secure by the power of God through their new birth, the in-dwelling and sealing of the Holy Spirit, and the intercession of Messiah Yeshua (Numbers 16:47,48; John 10:28-30, 14:16-18; Romans 8:33-39; Ephesians 4:30; 1 Peter 1:23; 1 John 2:1).

Its Enablement
We believe that all believers, though forgiven, still struggle with sin while they are in this life. God, in His mercy and grace, has given the believer, through salvation, the ability to recognize his sin and a heart to confess and repent of it. God enables the believer to understand the Scriptures through the power and presence of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit also reminds the believer of his redeemed identity in Yeshua the Messiah (Numbers 15:37-41; Psalm 51:1-13; Jeremiah 31:33; John 14:26, 17:17; Romans 6:1-11, 7:15-21, 8:1,2, 9-16; 1 Corinthians 2:11-16; 1 John 1:8 - 2:2).
