Cornerstone Church
Of the Assemblies of God

Our statements of faith:
1) The Inspired Scriptures: We believe the Scriptures, both the Old and Ne
Testaments, are verbally inspired of God and are the revelation of God to man, the
infallible, inerrant, authoritative rule of faith and conduct.
2) God in Three Persons: We believe the one true God has revealed himself as
being the eternally self-existent Creator of heaven and earth and the Redeemer of
mankind. He has further revealed himself as a Trinity, that is, One Being; One in
Essence, but existing in three Persons — Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
3) The Lord Jesus Christ: We believe the Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of
God, as revealed in the Scripture, by His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles,
His death on the cross, His bodily resurrection from the dead and His position at
the right hand of God.
4) Creation and fall of man: We believe that man was created good and upright.
However, man willfully sinned and thereby was subjected not only to physical
death but also to spiritual death, which is separation from God.
Salvation: We believe man’s only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of
Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Salvation is received through repentance toward God
and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
The ordinances: Water baptism: We believe the ordinance of baptism by
immersion in water is commanded of all who repent and believe on Christ as
Savior. It represents having died with Christ and being raised with Him to walk in
newness of life.
Communion: We believe the Lord’s Supper is a memorial of Christ’s suffering
and death and a prophecy of His second coming. It is commanded of all believers
to partake in until He returns physically to the earth.
Baptism in the Holy Spirit: We urge all Christians to receive the Gift of the Holy
Spirit that Jesus promised to all those who would Believe in Him and become His
disciples. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is an empowerment by God to live the
Christian Faith, marked by the Fruit of the Spirit and the Gifts of the Spirit and the
enablement to speak in a supernatural language/tongue given by the Holy Spirit.
Both the Love and Power of God are Grace Gifts that transform our lives and make
us witnesses for Christ; light in the darkness, and ministers of His Gospel.
Sanctification: We believe sanctification is an act of separation from that which is
evil, and of dedication unto God.
Church and its mission: We believe the Church is the body of Christ with a
divinely called ministry. Its purpose is to evangelize the world, worship God and
encourage believers to grow in the likeness of Christ.
Divine healing: We believe deliverance from sickness is provided for in the
Atonement and is the privilege of all believers.
Second coming of Christ: We believe the blessed hope of the Church is Christ’s
return from heaven to catch up into Heaven the Christians who have died, together
with those who are alive, to be with Him forever.
End-time events: We believe Christ will return with His saints to establish a
1,000-year reign of peace. After this will come the final judgment of the wicked,
and then a new heaven and a new earth.

Purpose:

Our purpose is to see people come into personal and ongoing relationship with Jesus Christ.
