Yeshism is a religious movement within Christianity that emphasizes a close adherence to the original teachings of Jesus (Yeshua) as recorded in the Gospels.
Core Beliefs:
* Primacy of Jesus's Teachings: Yeshists prioritize the direct teachings of Jesus as found in the canonical Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) and other early Christian texts like the Gospel of Mary and the Gospel of Thomas. They reject theological interpretations and decisions made by church leaders after Jesus's time, including those of Paul and the Council of Nicea.
* Detachment: Emphasizing Jesus's call for his followers to renounce worldly possessions and family ties, Yeshists often practice detachment from material possessions and worldly concerns.
* Love, Forgiveness, and Pacifism: Central to Yeshist belief is the importance of love, forgiveness, and non-violence, mirroring Jesus's teachings and actions.
* Jesus as the Logos: Yeshists generally believe that Jesus is the physical manifestation of the Logos (the divine word) as described in the Gospel of John.
* God's Will and Agency: They believe that Jesus's actions were in accordance with the will of God and that he demonstrated the possibility of bringing about positive change within the existing order without resorting to resistance or conflict.
