The Torah
The Torah (the Pentateuch,
or first 5 books of the Bible) represents God’s will for mankind. It is an ancient historical record between
God and the early patriarchs. It was written
over a period of time, and reflects the inspiration of God’s spirit, as well as
unique human characteristics. The notion
of infallibility in historical terms is a recent phenomenon, not being an
accurate description of the historical realities in the composition of the
text. In every way, it is a product of
its era, reflecting the culture, recording standards and religious beliefs of
those who composed the text. It should
be understood as a ‘Tradition’, which is authoritative in this sense, but impractical
to apply in a legalistic mindset. Its
history and laws are, in a basic sense, true and correct. But a fundamentalist approach to the Torah
does a disservice to the grace, kindness and mercy of our God. Yet, an approach of total freedom, not caring
for God’s word, is also impractical in relation to this faith. It should be understood as a ‘guide’ from
God. How each of us approaches the Torah
should ideally be based on a sense of the importance of its history – its
people – our own lives and our own sense of community, as well as the necessary
approach of obedience, strictness, devotion, mercy and kindness. A common sense approach to God’s word is the
most important and sensible method.
The main covenant of the
Torah is the covenant of Noah. Genesis
9:1-17 records mankind’s (apart from the children of Abraham) own special
covenant with Almighty God.
Genesis
9:1-17
“And God blessed Noah and his
sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb
have I given you all things. And the
fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and
upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all
the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered. But flesh with the life thereof, which is the
blood thereof, shall ye not eat. And surely your blood of your lives will I
require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man;
at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. Whoso
sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God
made he man And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in
the earth, and multiply therein.
And God spake
unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying and I, behold, I establish my
covenant with you, and with your seed after you; And with every living creature
that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth
with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth. And I
will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any
more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to
destroy the earth.
And God said, This
is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living
creature that is with you, for perpetual generations I do set my bow in the
cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. And
it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall
be seen in the cloud: And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and
you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become
a flood to destroy all flesh. And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will
look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and
every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth., And God said unto
Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me
and all flesh that is upon the earth.”
Obligations of the Children of Noah
All mankind is obligated under Noahide faith. Latter post-judaic religious developments (eg
Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Bahai and other religions)
are false religious misrepresenting divine truth. The founders of these religions were
eccentric iconoclasts, devoted to the concept of self-exaltation, which is a
spirit of idolatry, opposed to God’s holy commandments. The deification of Jesus is a classic example
of idolatry gone mad, in which a human is worshipped as a god.
As a child of Noah you are obligated under the precepts of
Torah faith, as communicated to our ancient father Noah.
Noahide faith is largely expressed in the laws of the
Torah, which was a latter Hebrew-centric explanation of the faith in Almighty
God.
A small portion of the Commands of the Torah apply to the
High Priest, the Priesthood and Isralites and Hebrews in particular, but the majority
of Torah law still applies today to all the children of Noah. The exact understanding of what constitutes
Noahide Law requires study with an experienced Noahide teacher, and careful
analysis of the written Torah. Many have
gone astray in attempting to correctly identify Noahide law, the Talmudic
Noahide movement a clear example of this fact.
Direct Calling and Commission from
Almighty God for founding of this Assembly
The Universal Faith Assembly through its founder Daniel
Thomas Andrew Daly have received a commission from Almighty God himself with
the command to build upon the faith of the people of Israel – (Direct words of
Yahweh to myself ‘Build on My Rock’.) God himself has
directed the founding of a Noahide Assembly based on the faith of his people
Israel, and based on them as the ‘Rock’ foundation through which the Assembly
will endure.
Know this – if you are considering Noahide faith you can
rest assured that in joining the Universal Faith Assembly you are within the
complete will of Almighty God.
