Doctrinal Statement

Cornerstone Christian School is an independent Christian school, not affiliated with any one church or denomination. Our purpose is to present Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of all, and to provide a superior education in a Christ-centered environment. We adhere to the beliefs outlined below in our Statement of Faith, but it is not our purpose to preach, teach, or take sides on doctrinal issues such as baptism, communion, speaking in tongues, the role of women in the church, or other issues where Christian denominations have differing interpretations of the Bible. The same is expected of our students and parents. We support students' and parents' adherence to their own particular denomination's doctrinal beliefs. We acknowledge that the body of Christ has many different members, each with their own God-given talents and abilities. At Cornerstone, we understand that although our students, parents, teachers, staff, and board members may have differences in doctrinal belief, we are all members of the same body working together to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ to our world.


Statement of Faith:

†We believe in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as being inspired by God and inerrant in the original writing. The Scripture is the supreme and final authority in faith and life.

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

†We believe that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and is fully God and fully man.

†We believe that man was created in the image of God; that he sinned, and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death, which is separation from God; and therefore all human beings are born with a sinful nature.

†We believe in the Biblical teaching that man was created as a direct act of God and not from previously existing forms of life; and that all men are descended from the historical Adam and Eve, first parents of the entire human race.

†We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures and in fulfillment of them, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him are justified on the grounds of His shed blood.

†We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into Heaven, and in His present life there for us as High Priest and Advocate.

†We believe that all who receive the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior by faith are born again of the Holy Spirit, thereby becoming children of God, and those believing in Him shall have everlasting life.

†We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost.
