About 119 Ministries

Testing everything.
Holding fast to what is good.

119 Ministries exists to seek the truth of Scripture, test inherited assumptions against the Word of God, and equip believers to understand and live the whole Word as faithfully as possible.

Our mission

Study carefully. Share freely. Serve faithfully.

Test everything

We test popular and unpopular doctrine alike, including our own conclusions, and encourage others to do the same.

Share the whole Word

We create resources that help people seek, understand, teach, and live out the truth of Scripture.

Serve the body

We aim to provide clear, testable, easily shared teachings that families and fellowships can study for themselves.

Our purpose

Our purpose is to seek truth, bring that truth to the nations, challenge false doctrine and traditions of men, and help the body of Messiah return to Scripture as the standard for faith and practice.

We believe careful study is strengthened when the Bible is read in its historical and Hebraic context rather than through assumptions that developed much later.

Core convictions

  • We believe the whole, unchanging Word of God is relevant to those in the faith today.
  • We believe believers are called to learn and obey Yahweh’s Torah, his instructions.
  • We believe salvation is by grace through faith, not something earned by works.
  • We believe Yeshua (Jesus) taught and perfectly obeyed the Torah and is our example for how to walk.
  • We believe Yeshua died for our sins and was raised from the dead.

Rooted in the Word

A name with a purpose.

Why the name “119”?

Our name comes from , a celebration of Yahweh’s Word and his Torah. God’s law teaches us to love God and love others. His commandments give us the practical details of how to express that love in everyday life ().

We are a new covenant ministry. Through Jeremiah, God promised a new covenant in which he would write his Torah on his people’s hearts (). Through Ezekiel, he promised a new heart and his Spirit within us, empowering us to walk in his instructions (). These promises shape our ministry: helping people embrace God’s Word inwardly and live it outwardly through love.

We are saved by grace through faith in Yeshua (Jesus), our Messiah. Obedience grows from that grace as a grateful response to God’s love (). Our emphasis on Torah reflects this purpose: following Messiah, growing through the Spirit, and learning how to love God and our neighbors with lives shaped by his Word. That is why is at the heart of our name.

A ministry built around the message

We want the focus to remain on Scripture rather than personalities. Our goal is not to ask people to accept a teaching because of who said it, but to examine what was taught and test it against the Word. We welcome thoughtful correction offered in that same spirit.
