Summary



Christian Military Fellowship (CMF) is an association of believers who are committed to encouraging Men and Women in the United States Armed Forces, and their families, to love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. CMF involves all elements of that society including all ranks, family members, veterans, retirees, and civilian employees.

We give great importance to Bible study because God has uniquely inspired the bible. In the final analysis it is not merely a book written by men. It is God's Book, designed by Him to provide knowledge of the way (which is Jesus Christ) to eternal salvation, as well as guidance and spiritual strength for the daily life and walk of His dear children.

Purpose

To Win: As a lay ministry the CMF is committed to leading (by the life witness of our membership) those in the military society to commit their lives to Jesu Christ. This is accomplished one on one, heart to heart, person to person.

To Disciple: Encouraging those who serve in the armed forces of the United States and their families to love and serve Jesus Christ.

To Equip: Helping individuals to establish and maintain personal Bible study, prayer and obedience to God in every area of their lives.

To Win: Out of a full heart, having been encouraged and equipped, our members can then share their faith with those with whom they live and serve.


Mission statement

Encouraging Men and Women in the United States Armed Forces, and their families, to love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ.


Statement of faith

1. We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

2. We believe that the Old and New Testaments as originally written are the verbally inspired Word of God, and accept them as the supreme and all-sufficient authority in faith and life.

3. We believe that man was created in the image of God, but that he sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also spiritual death which is eternal separation from God; and that each human being is born with a sinful nature and cannot by his own efforts please God.

4. We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, was born of the Virgin Mary and is true God and true man.

5. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins as our vicarious sacrifice in accordance with the Scripture, and that all who believe in Him are cleansed of their sins by His shed blood and are justified before God.

6. We believe that all who by faith receive the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and so become the children of God, to live with Him through all eternity.

7. We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into heaven, and in His present life there as our High Priest and Advocate.

8. We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust; the eternal blessedness of the saved; and the everlasting, conscious punishment of the lost.

9. We believe in the personal, visible and glorious return of the Lord Jesus Christ to this earth.
