Reformed Samaritanism General Overview

Like as a father pitieth his children, so הוהי (the Lord) your God; andthe Lord) pitieth them that fear him
. For he 
knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust… 
He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor 
rewarded us according to our iniquities
. For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy 
toward them that fear him… 
Who is a God like unto thee that pardons iniquity, and passes over the 
rebellion
with the remnant of his heritage? 
He did not retain his anger for ever because he delights in 
mercy
”- Psalm 103:13-14, Psalm 103:10-11, & Micah 7:18. 
Finally, Scripture is crystal clear, when it goes on to teach that if a sinner vows repentance [in order to start 
anew, doing the goodness that pleases the Creator], not only will he receive the promise of life [everlasting], 
but will also be given “a clean slate”, since his former iniquities will never be remembered again. As is 
written: “
But if the wicked will turn from all his sins
that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, 
and 
do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live
, he shall not die. 
All his transgressions that he hath 
committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him
: in his righteousness that he hath done 
he shall live
”- 
Ezekiel 18:21-22. 
Hebrew Scripture teaches that sin is an act, not a state of being. Mankind was created with an inclination to
do evil (Genesis 8:21), and the ability to master this inclination (Genesis 4:7); But he can choose good over
evil (Psalm 37:27). Secondly, God gave us a way to remove our sins. When sacrifices were required, they
were intended for unintentional sins (Leviticus 4:1), and served as a means of motivating individuals to true
repentance. Numerous passages, including Hosea 14, I Kings 8: 44-52 and Jeremiah 29:12-14, inform us
that today, without a Temple or sacrifices, our prayers take the place of sacrifices. In addition, we read, “The
sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart” (Psalm 51:22); and, “I desire kindness
and not sacrifices, the knowledge of God, more than burnt offerings” (Hosea 6: 6). The Torah (God’s Law)
teaches that through repentance, prayer, fasting, and doing what is right, everyone has the ability to return to
God directly, and without the need of any intermediary. This concept is beautifully illustrated in the books of
Jonah and Esther, where both Jews and non-Jews repented, prayed to God and were forgiven for their sins
without having offered any sacrifices.
