1. What does Yahshua HaMashiach mean?

Yahshua is the Hebraic name of our Master and Savior. Yahshua means "Yah is
salvation" or "to save" and is first seen in Sh'mot (Exodus) 14:13 in the Hebraic text
which, translates as Yahshua. HaMashiach means: ha (the) and Maschiach (Messiah).

2. Why do Hebraic and Messianic congregants refer to Jesus Christ as

Yahshua HaMashiach?
He is of the tribe of Judah and is a "Jew" by virtue of his natural ancestry. He is Hebrew,
not Greek or any other nationality. All Scripture is Hebraic, starting from Genesis to
Malachi and is the reference from which Yahshua and all the people of His time
referenced. The Father gave him a Name that identifies Him with His people, His land,
and Scripture. This Name is above every name, that at the Name which the Father gave
his Son, every knee shall bow and every language shall confess.

3. What does it mean to be Hebraic?

It means that the study and or reference of all Scripture is based on Hebraic language and
understanding of the Hebraic way of life. 2 Timothy 3:16 tells us that ALL Scripture is
breathed out by the Father. This passage speaks to the only known Scripture that existed
during the time of Yahshua, Sha'ul (Paul), or any of the Apostles, which was Genesis to
Malachi.

4. What is the Torah?

identifies Scripture. It means The Teachings of the Father. Some refer to this as "The
Law", which does not give a clear rendering of what the Torah represents.
