Ordination is the affirmation of God’s call to pastoral ministry. It is also the verification of theological and moral fitness for ministry. The full process of ordination in the Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA) lasts several years. The final step involves an extensive oral exam and writing a dense paper organized around the EFCA’s statement of faith. In the summer of 2019, the EFCA broadened its statement of faith to include all orthodox views of the glorious return of Christ. Benjamin Vrbicek is the first pastor who holds an amillennial view of the return of Christ.

In five of lectures delivered at Princeton Seminary during the summer of 1914, B. B. Warfield used “a progressive series of corrections” to explain “the divine dealing with man which ends in his salvation.” Starting with the divide between naturalism and supernaturalism, continuing to sacerdotalism and evangelicalism, and on through universalistic vs. particularistic views, Warfield emphasized complete dependence upon God: “It is only the Calvinist that has warrant to believe in salvation whether of the individual or of the world.”
