Congregation Beth Simcha

Messianic Jewish congregation · San Antonio, TX

About

Congregation Beth Simcha calls itself "a Messianic Jewish Synagogue, proclaiming Yeshua as the Messiah." Its mission is to provide a Biblically Jewish context for New Covenant faith and life. Each Saturday, Shabbat School meets at 9:30 a.m. The Shabbat service follows at 10:30 a.m.

Bringing Jew and Gentile together in harmony is central to its vision. Yeshua has broken down the middle wall of partition between them, the congregation holds, and both are to worship together. Jewish believers in Yeshua, it teaches, have not separated themselves from their heritage and remain sons and daughters of Israel. Gentiles who trust in Israel's Messiah are understood as spiritually sons and daughters of Israel. Faith here is expressed in a Jewish style. Each person is free to express their own cultural heritage within the Body of Messiah.

Beth Simcha affirms the Tenach and the B'rit Chadashah together as the infallible and authoritative Word of God. It holds to the deity of Yeshua HaMashiach and to cleansing from sin by grace through faith in His shed blood. The gifts of Ruach HaKodesh, it teaches, are for believers today. Matzah and wine are shared as symbols of the Lord's death and resurrection. Believers are immersed in the mikveh as an outward sign of an inward salvation experience.
