God lives & so do We

haChayim is a non-Rabbinic branch of Abrahamism restoring the living covenant, prophetic presence, and unity of Eilon Avraham.

a living Covenant of Abraham

Hachayim centers on a vibrant, ongoing relationship with God, rejecting naviphobia; the institutional fear of ongoing revelation.

Faith in Presence
God > Prophets > Torah > Institutions

No Jew should be expected to honor institutional authority or ancient texts over the living expression of God.

why a new Jew?

Rabbis guard against darkness, haChayim open themselves to Light

Institution-free Interpretations

haChayim understand that each of us refract the Light differently, and medurot are encouraged to be as unique as their sparks demand.

De-escalating Abrahamic Feuds

There's a certain level of absurdity to how children of God handle the tiniest disputes over history or policy; Hachayim address this sibling rivalry head on.

Navigating Naviphobia

The fear of false of prophecy is reasonable; the denial of all new prophecy is heretical.

a return to Meaning

The Word is an approximation of the Light; haChayim don't mistake models & methods for Meaning.

Torah-rooted; Universally reflected

haChayim follow the Torah in principle, but the Meaning beyond the Word is found in expressions through all art and religion. Part of understanding Torah is parsing these refractions in other cultures.

Intersubjective Exploration

haChayim understand the Truth can only be revealed when viewed from multiple angles. Rather than snuffing out diversity, haChayim encourage cycles of divergence and convergence.

to Know is to Die

When we discuss God, it's via approximation and pragmatic expression. Though all experience God, and some may even interact, no human has ever or will ever know God in holy form.
