1. We believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, without error, His way of revealing Himself, and our guide for living a Christ-like life.
2. We believe man was created in God's image. That he chose to disobey God and is now a sinner by nature and choice.
3. We believe that salvation comes as we choose to trust the Lord Jesus Christ with our lives, and that this salvation is secure. God, because of His love and faithfulness will never turn away from us.
4. We believe that the church is the spiritual body of Christ with Jesus being the head. We believe in the Spirit-filled life and that the Holy Spirit provides every believer with at least one spiritual gift. We believe that all the gifts are still active in the church and they enable the local body to
fulfill it's purpose and mission.
5. We believe in the existence of eternal life that every person, after this life on earth, will live for eternity in either heaven or hell, depending solely on the choice they made while on earth concerning Jesus Christ.
What do you believe about
The Holy Spirit, the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, and the
Spiritual Gifts?
We believe that a
person is sealed by the Holy Spirit unto eternal
life at the point of salvation.
Ephesians 4:30
We believe that the
baptism of the Holy Spirit is relevant and necessary for
every believer today to experience the victorious
Spirit-filled life.
Matthew 3:11, Acts 1:4-8
We believe that a
person can receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit by
asking and receiving God’s promise in faith according to
the word of God.
Luke 11:13
We believe a person
that is baptized in the Holy Spirit and walking in that
Spirit –filled life will demonstrate evidence of that
baptism. Some of that evidence is bearing fruit,
walking in the fruits of the Spirit, and speaking in
tongues.
Galatians 5:22-23, John 15:16, Mark 4:13-20
We believe that the
baptism of the Holy Spirit can happen in the life of a
believer at the point of salvation or at any other time
when that person is totally yielded to the Father.
Acts 8:14-18, Acts 10:34-46, Acts 19:1-6
We believe that the
spiritual gifts are still relevant for the church today.
Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12, 14
We believe that the
public use of tongues and the interpretation of tongues
in corporate gatherings should be used in accordance
with 1 Corinthians 14 and under the authority of the
elders and pastoral staff of Cornerstone Church.
1 Corinthians 14
We believe that every
Spirit-filled believer (a believer that has been
baptized in the Holy Spirit) can have a prayer language.
