Returning to the Roots

The Faith of The Patriarchs

The Biblical Faith of Patriarchs

From the beginning of time, there has been one God, the Creator of all mankind. Before there were divisions of religion, denominations, and traditions, there was a pure and simple relationship between God and humanity through His Holy Word. This relationship with humanity was established through the patriarchs "Abraham, Isaac, Jacob" and the prophets who walked in obedience to God.

Today, the world is divided into religions, yet the origin is one. This is a call, not to one group alone, but to Christians, Jews, muslims, and all people of every faith: to return to the foundation, to the path of the patriarchs.

Christians believe in God and in His Messiah. They are believers, there is no doubt about that. However, a serious concern remains: many do not live according to what the Holy Bible teaches. Jews believe in God and waiting for His Messiah, though they honor Patriarchs.

Faith is not only about belief; it is about obedience. When belief is separated from practice, the result is a weakened and divided community.

What is Patriarchism?

Patriarchism is not a new religion; it is a return to the original faith, the way of life practiced by the patriarchs, revealed to the prophets, and given as the Law (Torah) to the prophet Moses. It calls us to believe in One God and to obey His commandments, His Holy Word, and His Holy Messiah, who will sanctify mankind and establish the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Believers are called to live lives of righteousness, humility, and submission to the Word of the Holy God, honoring what God has established from the beginning.

Before labels like “Judaism” or “Christianity” orthodox, existed, there was the faith of Abraham, a faith based on trust, obedience, and covenant with God. Rabbi Yeshua Himself spoke of the feasts of God, saying they were prepared for mankind from the beginning, as given to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Matthew 22:32, Matthew 8:11, John 7:2–8). These feasts were not merely rituals, but divine appointments pointing to God’s plan for humanity, meant to guide His people in holiness, remembrance, and worship.

The original way of life intended by God for all mankind, honoring His feasts and His Holy Word.

The Shift from Faith to Roman Religion

Historically, the faith in the Jewish Messiah, Rabbi Yeshua Hamasciach, began as a belief centered on the Messiah. After the apostles, who followed the biblical patriarchal understanding of the Messiah, spread its gospel to the world, the faith continued to grow despite persecution.

For three centuries, those who had been persecuting the believers gradually adopted the faith themselves. Even though they were later called “Christians” by the Romans Rulers, the apostles of Yeshua never chose this identity for themselves before the Romans. They were simply believers who followed the biblical patriarchal faith. As the movement spread into the Roman and Greek world, it eventually transformed into a structured religion under the influence of Roman authorities, who incorporated their own customs.

During this transformation, new rituals and traditions were introduced, some of which were not rooted in the Holy Bible, The New testament, The Old Testament, or the Torah. While forming a distinct identity was not wrong, the cost was high: the loss of connection to the original biblical foundation.

When roots are abandoned, stability is lost.

The Divine Calendar & the Feasts of God

One of the clearest signs of disconnection from biblical roots is the neglect of divinely appointed times. The Messiah was crucified during Passover, a sacred time chosen and established by God long before, deeply connected to His Word given to the patriarchs.

Yet, christians neither observe nor understand its significance, often replacing it with other celebrations. The issue is not merely about dates or names, it is about losing the meaning behind what God originally established. God set His sacred times in an ordered way: first the weekly holy day, Shabbat, followed by the seven annual appointed feasts (Moedim). These are not man-made; they are divine appointments declared by God Himself.

The seven appointed feasts include Passover (Pesach), Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits for gratitude, and Pentecost (Shavuot) for receiving the Torah and Holy Spirit. Trumpets (Yom Teruah) calls people to awakening and return (Leviticus 23), Atonement (Yom Kippur) and Tabernacles (Sukkot) reminds us of dwelling in God’s presence.

These sacred times have been ignored for centuries, but it is time to return and join the feasts of the patriarchs, walking once again in the pattern God established from the beginning.
A Biblical Concern

Changing Moral Standards

The world has forgotten the moral foundation of the patriarchs. Another issue is the changing definition of what is considered acceptable or sinful. In some modern churches, as well as among followers of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, practices such as homosexuality and same-sex marriage are increasingly accepted as normal by society. Yet, according to God, these are abominations. God, who destroyed the world in the time of the patriarch Noah, saved only those who followed His commands and lived righteously.

In today’s world, divorce has become increasingly common. A man and a woman may dissolve and dishonor the covenant made in God’s holy name, then enter new relationships, corrupting their bodies and souls. The Roman religion and tradition compels Christians to divorce and remarry, legally enforcing what is sinful, and then regards them as inferior.

God has said, “Do not steal. Do not lie. Do not deceive one another. Do not swear falsely by My name and so profane the name of your God. I am the Lord.” (Leviticus 19:11–12).

Yet many couples enter into marriage by taking the holy name of YAHWEH or JESUS, and later separate, giving their bodies to others, without recognizing that they are sinning against God. When couples cheat and deceive, they often fail to acknowledge that they are committing sin against GOD by betraying one another.

The reason is that they are not properly taught to honor the holy name of GOD. If the foundation is not truly laid in reverence for His holy name, how can they remain faithful to the vows and oaths made in that name?

Historically, before JESUS, the Romans practiced monogamy. A Roman man could legally have only one wife at a time, as having multiple wives simultaneously was not permitted under Roman law. However, men could still have unofficial partners, including relationships with slaves or prostitutes. Divorce was also common and relatively easy, and either the husband or the wife could initiate it. These practices were shaped in part by laws established under Augustus. Today, many the world and Christians appear to follow similar patterns, which reflect Roman-influenced traditions rather than biblical foundations. As a result, the original spiritual depth and covenantal understanding of marriage may be overlooked. Yet the marriages of biblical patriarchs such as Abraham, Jacob, Moses, and David are often judged disgracefully, but society readily accepts divorce and remarriage.

This creates a clear contradiction. Those whom God honored are now criticized, while practices once considered sinful are redefined as acceptable. Such shifts raise an important question: are moral standards being shaped by Scripture, or by culture, or have both been corrupted because believers have strayed far from the biblical roots of patriarchal faith.

The Bible provides guidance even in how to pray. Acts of humility, including prostration, are seen throughout Scripture as expressions of submission to God.

Yet many have moved away from these practices. Over time, different forms of worship developed, often influenced more by cultural shifts than by biblical patterns. The real reason is that people did not honor God and His commandments, nor did they honor those whom God honored.

Abraham, Moses, and David all prayed in prostration. This practice is now largely missing and cannot be restored until believers come out of Roman Christianity and return to Patriarchism.

When the method of prayer changes, the depth of submission is also affected. The Church and many Christians may hear the Word of God, but it does not impact them as it did the Patriarchs because the Patriarchs did what God commanded them to do. Click Here to Learn More about Biblical Prostration

When God gave the Ten Commandments to the Patriarchist Believer, Prophet Moses, the first three commandments focused on God, and the fourth commandment “Remember Shabbat” emphasized fellowship with Him, setting apart a day as holy, a day for prayer, and a day for rest.


The Sabbath, or Shabbat in Hebrew, means “to rest.” In the weekly cycle, Saturday is Shabbat, as it is called in Hebrew. In addition to the weekly Sabbath, there are seven annual Sabbaths in a year.

It is a divinely appointed day to cease work, recover strength, and experience peace. Rest is not merely physical, it is spiritual. It allows the soul to reconnect with God, the Creator, who Himself rested on the seventh day after creation.

The present world, and the world without God, has no answer for why there are seven days in a week. The original spiritual foundation comes from God’s creation week, with seven days as a divine pattern.The answer lies in the Creator’s design, the Creator of the universe guides us through His Word Holy Bible.

The seven day week originates from the creation account in the Holy Bible, where God created the heavens and the earth in six days and blessed the seventh and made it holy. Each day of creation, light and darkness, sky and waters, land and vegetation, sun and moon, birds and fish, animals and humans—was marked as a separate day, culminating in the seventh day of rest, which God blessed and made holy.

This pattern established the rhythm of work and rest for humanity, showing that life is meant to balance labor with spiritual renewal. As it is written:
“Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.” Genesis 2:3

As believers following the ways of the patriarchs, we recognize that God Himself has appointed sacred times for His people. These are not mere traditions, but divine instructions given to guide us in holiness, obedience, and fellowship with Him. The seven feasts of God reveal His eternal plan and the rhythm He set for mankind:

Passover (Pesach) – God delivered Abraham’s descendants from bondage in Egypt, Feast of salvation through the Lamb.
Reference: Exodus 12:1–14; Leviticus 23:4–5

Unleavened Bread – a time to remove sin and live in purity.
Reference: Exodus 12:15–20; Leviticus 23:6–8

Firstfruits – we offer gratitude to God for His provision, following the example of the patriarchs who gave the first of their harvest to the Lord.
Reference: Leviticus 23:9–14; Deuteronomy 26:1–11

Pentecost (Shavuot) – we celebrate God’s Word given to Moses and the outpouring of His Spirit,
Reference: Exodus 34:22; Leviticus 23:15–22; Acts 2:1–4

Trumpets (Yom Teruah) – The call to awaken and return to God
Reference: Leviticus 23:23–25; Numbers 29:1–6

Atonement – Need for repentance
Reference: Leviticus 16:29–34; Leviticus 23:26–32

Tabernacles (Sukkot) – we dwell in the presence of God, rejoicing in His protection and provision,
Reference: Leviticus 23:33–44; Deuteronomy 16:13–15

These feasts are living testimonies of God’s covenant and His divine pattern for mankind. By following them, we walk in the path of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, aligning our lives with the Creator’s will and the eternal rhythm He set before time began.
