Statement of Faith
The leadership and members of Eternal Food Ministry are committed without reservation to the
statement of belief as herein set forth.
1. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible authoritative Word of God.
2. We believe that there is only one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and
Holy Spirit.
3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in
His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection,
in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return to power and glory.
4. We believe that, for the salvation of the lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is
absolutely necessary.
5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is
enabled to live a godly life.
6. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, people who are saved unto the
resurrection of life and people who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
7. We hold the doctrine of great commission dearest to our heart and pursue it using contemporary
potent methodology of addressing physical needs to meet spiritual one.
