Reformed Samaritanism General Overview

Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in the mountain of thy holiness? 
He that walks in integrity and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart. He that does not 
backbite with his tongue nor do evil to his neighbour, nor take up a reproach against his neighbour. In 
whose eyes the vile person is not esteemed; but he honours those that fear the Lord. He that swears to his 
own hurt, and does not change. He that does not put out his money to usury, nor take a bribe against the 
innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved
”- Psalm 15:1-5. 
In short, God wants to guide us towards a life characterized by justice (punishing the guilty, and rewarding 
the innocent), mercy, and humility. As it is written: “
He [God] has declared unto thee, O man, what is good,
¿and what the Lord requires of thee? Only to do right judgment, and to love mercy, and to humble thyself 
to walk with thy God
”- Micah 6:8, Jubilee 2000 Bible. 
And the fact that everlasting life is the reward of living in peace and brotherly love with our innocent 
neighbors is attested by the psalm that goes on to say: “
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for 
brethren to dwell together in unity!
…” (Psalm 133:1, Jubilee Bible 2000). And what does the end of the 
psalm promise to be the reward for those living in peace? “… 
for there the LORD commands blessing, and 
eternal life
” (Psalm 133:3). 
Finally, Reformed Samaritanism is to believe that “truth is truth”, regardless of who says it, nor where can it 
be found (Judaism, Christianity, Islam, etc). Thus, we acknowledge as valid any religious practice that 
promotes a lifestyle of humility and obedience to God’s commandments. What are some of these practices? 
Among them are the followings: 
To praise God on a daily basis; to bless Him [with raised hands] aloud, using passages of the holy Scripture; 
to bow down [to the ground] during prayer; to take off our shoes while performing the religious service; to 
264


wear chaste and modest attires; to keep male and female properly separated from one another; to have word 
of honor; And to stay away from usury, from falsehood, from pride, and from open immorality.
